"Great! Now that that's all sorted out, I have a question. How did you lose your memory in the first place?" Harry asked, looking incredibly puzzled.
"I think it happened when – actually, I don't have a clue as to what happened."
"What had happened last time, before the bit you last remembered when you lost your memory?"
"I think what Harry's trying to say is what happened before you lost your memory? What was the last thing you remember?" said Draco, translating.
"I think it was Harry explaining about the defeat of dear old Voldy-shorts."
"That was right after you found out about Draco and me."
"What feelings did you have for Harry before you found out?"
"Well, at first I loved him like I would a brother, but then it changed. It grew deeper. I got a crush on him, and I believed myself to be in love with him."
"I see. And to find out that he, um, swung the other way, was indeed a considerable shock then?"
"Yes, it was. May I ask, Draco to what point and purpose do these questions tend? Oh dear lord, that was awfully posh wasn't it?"
"Indeed it was. I ask because I have a theory. Sometimes the human brain does not respond well to shock. My theory is that when you found out this startling news it triggered you into a dreamlike state. You lived your life, but you forgot the events shortly after receiving the experiences. Then when you got your memory back your brain somehow heightened the memories so you felt more about them than you did when you lost contact with them in the first place." Draco had to take several deep breaths here to get some oxygen into that slightly overtaxed brain of his.
"I think I speak for everyone here when I say Huh?"
Draco glared at Ron for daring to not understand this theorem.
"I think I understand it now. All the memories were there but I just didn't register them until later. It all makes perfect sense now."
"It does?" Harry and Ron asked together, with equally confused expressions on their equally baffled faces.
Hermione and Draco gave them the 'look'. The boys who looked as though they had a confundus charm permanently on them, flinched and recoiled slightly.
Clearly this conversation was above their supremely inferior intellectual ability.
In fact, both Hermione and Draco had both said this to them on several occasions, much to their amusement.
