There was an unmistakeable and genuine sense of excitement about Connor that Draco felt unsure how to entirely handle. He felt pretty certain that she was genuinely interested in what he had to say, but it twas difficult for him i to tell whether it was to be able to see him flounder in public, or if she just genuine believed that he was would have something interesting to contribute.<br/>“I hope that my insights will prove helpful,” was what Draco settled on, not wanting to be too presumptuous about his role in this mission, but also wanting to make it clear that he was there to help.<br/>It was still impossible for him to shake the feeling of being an intruder, something that had worn off slightly when he had been alone with Buchannan, but now was back in full pelt with another person present. After all, he had no formal requirements for the studies that he had been making, just an affinity for the dark arts and a lot of time to spend on whatever he wanted.<br/>“I am well familiar with Potter’s case,” he added as an afterthought, as if they would have let him even remotely close had that not been the case.
