Thomas...when he came, I was really hopefully that I'd have a friend in Gryffindor finally. And we were, maybe, a bit, for a while, but then he shut me out just like Weasley and Longbottom. Or not like Weasley and Longbottom, because they shut me out to be mates with each other, and Thomas didn't have any mates. He didn't seem to want any.
I feel like we should have been able to be friends. If people had known all along he was a half-blood, if he'd grown up in fostering like he should have instead of in the camps, maybe he wouldn't have been so cold and prickly and angry all the time.

I don't know.
