"I doubt you are that worried about it. You shouldn't be, anyway. Between your talents with potions and spells..." He had seen the things Severus could do. Barty wished he could ask him more about it. Dark magic, of course he studied it as much as possible. Unfortunately, it wasn't as available to him as it was to many others in his house. He didn't have a family harbouring ancient books of magical theorems, he wasn't yet old enough to be granted access to the forbidden section of the library and it was a hard topic to openly discuss with anyone. "You could make career anywhere."

And, of course, he had more of an inkling to where Severus' ambitions went.

"True." He knew where he'd go but it was funny to hear this boy flatter him. No one had ever done that, not really, until he started to show his true self. It was quite funny, actually. Years of trying, of wanting to be better for Lily, they were all a waste - she didn't care and he couldn't be better. It only hurt himself to not be who he was. Nothing made people come to him quite like his dark magic did.

With a sigh, he got up, done wasting his time on small talk. He'd been quite social enough for one day. "If you'll excuse me, I have somewhere better to be." Alone, in his room, not by someone.
