It did, however, lead to a very awkward meeting of the eighth year Slytherins in his dorm room the morning the news broke.  He was quite literally dragged there with threats upon his life from Pansy if he didn’t explain and explain quickly.  Apparently, she liked Hermione and was going to melt his insides if he hurt her.  On the other hand, Daphne spent his entire explanation smirking.  When he finished his explanation (seeing as he preferred himself in one piece, thank you very much), Blaise and Theo very reluctantly gave Daphne a galleon each which she smugly stuffed in her pocket.
