Lovegood was of less interest to him. She had worked alongside Longbottom all this time, to be sure, but he was less familiar with her, had no such long history as he had with the others. They’d gone to the same school and been in the same year, and he’d laughed at and made fun of her countless times, but their acquaintance had never extended beyond that. In fact, he didn’t think they’d ever exchanged more than a few sentences to each other. She was an oddity but he’d never held any true quarrel with her, other than her being the partner of his adversary.
