III. Evil

"Theo, are we evil?"

Theodore sighed. He was trying to do his Ancient Runes homework, which was hard enough without Blaise going all philosophical on him.

"No, we're not. Evil is simply a perception."

"You sound like the Dark Lord," Blaise said eventually. "And he was evil, wasn't he? So maybe that makes us evil as well."

"You've been listening to too much Gryffindor propaganda" was all Theodore could say in response.
