"You and I have rocketed to the top of the hierarchy, now that my heritage is known, and this upsets Malfoy because he has had a near uncontested spot at the top, save for Orion Black. Malfoy’s blood is purer than ours and his family more powerful than the Potters or Gaunts, but he’s a mediocre student with mediocre magical power who has done nothing of note for his entire tenure at Hogwarts, while you and I are both extremely powerful, Triwizard Champions, and famous in our own rights – you for time traveling, and now myself for being the Hero of Hogwarts. It certainly doesn’t hurt that I’m the top of the class and a prefect, and you’re quidditch captain. Malfoy feels threatened and he doesn’t like it." Tom’s eyes glittered with satisfaction.
