Hermione thought that in another life, perhaps one that hadn’t been so cruel to the little boy the man in front of her used to be, he would have been a Potions Master. She so distinctly remembers how different he had been in those classes. He had natural talent, of course. But he also worked harder and stayed later to make sure his potions were perfect. It had often crossed her mind that pairing with him on a potions assignment would have been far more beneficial than carrying Harry and Ron through another project.
