Augustus was sympathetic to the girl's plight. More than a few times when he heard a bit of the tale that was difficult to hear, he'd clenched his jaw or grit his teeth. Even gasped once or twice. Despite being a Death Eater for most of his life and spending over a decade and a half locked up in Azkaban prison, he still had compassion for those he knew that were in trouble. Maybe a part of him would always be like he was when he was seated outside her broom cupboard.
