Later that day, Pansy and Draco made their way back to the Slytherin dungeon. Draco was still fuming about Harry's attack on Pansy.
"That stupid prat! I really hate that kid. Why wouldn't you just let me hex him, Sly? I can't believe he touched you with that curse, that slimy Gryffindor -bastard-! They just don't understand our view, they weren't raised the same way we were. They're not -like- us!"
"We're better than they are," said Pansy, trying to soothe Draco's fury.
"We most certainly are." he said furiously, turning away from her.
Pansy watched his narrow back contract whenever he moved his arms or head slightly, and found herself wondering.
*Are we? Are we truly better than they are? We only provoke them, and they attack. It seems more like a two way street to me. But perhaps...perhaps I think too much. Perhaps I should try to act more like Draco. Not think about why or how, but just accept what I'm told.
But doesn't that make life dull?
I would never tell Draco this, but he and Harry Potter have so much in common. They're both loyal and stubborn, both play Quidditch well...both defend their friends like noble guard dogs, both hold an extreme prejudice against anybody in the house that they particularly dislike...and what about that quote that Draco chose from Twelfth Night?
"Some are born great..." like those who defeat the Dark Lord as a baby?
"Some achieve greatness..." like those who defeat their deadly enemy over and over and -over- again...
"Some have greatness thrust upon them." Like those who can't even remember the deed that earned them their acclaimed fame?
