He watched impassively as McGonagall told the first years the same speech he got about how the sorting would take place, and finally it started, while his face was blank, it was clear to those close to him that his eyes were watching intently with excitement. If only he knew Legilimency so he could hear the conversation between the Sorting Hat and Rose Potter.
