Title: Tell Me Things

"Get out of my head!" demanded Snape.

"That's not possible Severus," replied Death smoothly. "The debt of knowledge will never be paid in full until you or the Granger release the cat to me. You now know this Severus, these are the things we cannot do. Only I can make the cat whole again."

"Then make yourself bloody useful. Tell me who killed this cat before they return for Miss Granger!" growled Snape impatiently.

Death answered slowly with an air of guiding a child, "I do not know who released the soul prematurely; my function is only as a guide."
