I built up an entire theory about the curse after 108 - I may sound more confident about it than is wise, but didn't want to recap the whole thing again as that would just be tiresome. Apologies. Suffice it to say that I currently believe Voldemorts own stolen cup is fucking with him.
It's that or he is for some odd reason plotting his own downfall, because stepping in front of that mirror while under a confundus charm was just.. extremely ill advised.
Did you ever come up with a response to the point that the Goblet was in Hogwarts for a few centuries after Baba Yaga, before being warehoused at Beauxbatons? If the curse was in effect all that time, it would have been mentioned.
The phrasing is that nothing can be taken from anyone protected by the contract. Not that gifts or trade are forbidden, Which means that if BY drops a note to the effect that she is subcontracting her responsibilities as battle magic teacher into the goblet that particular teacher is granted forbearance. So as long as the goblet was in a place she could get at, no curse.
