Tom looked genuinely offended at the compliment. He opened his mouth to protest but Ashley raised her ice cream cone in retaliation. That succeeded in shutting him up, and he would deny it until the day he died, but he was definitely sporting a little pout. The two Hogwarts Heirs dabbled in a short chat. Ashley learned that Tom had been staying at the Gaunt Shack with Nagini while he built up his strength. He, on the other hand, took the opportunity to find out Ashley's reason as to why she wanted to come along to Azkaban. For a solid moment, they had an understanding when she related her mistreatment at the hands of her relatives. She knew that he had experienced the same torment when he was still young and living at the orphanage.
