Maybe it was simply due to the time that they had spent together, but Draco found that hearing Potter talk was comforting to him. It was easy to just tune out slightly, hearing what he was saying but not entirely listening. It was a comfort that was foreign to him, unable to remember the last time he had gotten to have something like that, and trying desperately not to think too much about the fact that Potter was the one giving him the experience again.<br/>Sometimes Draco just liked to hear what Potter was thinking, finding himself with a great difficulty in reading him properly, and it was always a great relief when Potter was willing to share. It made Draco’s life a lot easier and made their shared research a lot easier as well.<br/>“Maybe we should focus on the few things that we know for certain,” Draco stated, mostly meaning it to be a prompt for Potter to talk more.
