It's so strange...now that he's dead, I mean.

The thing is, I hated him. I really did. I pretend to be a mudblood, but he made himself into one for real. He really did believe that muck, that there was nothing he should like better than crawling for wizards like Master and Mr Malfoy, just because they had wands and he didn't. And he was a sneak and a spy.

But when it comes right down to it--Merlin, he was just a kid.
