[[That's a great idea! I thought maybe she was Snape's child who came about because he had drunken sex with someone in a fit of trying to prove he wasn't gay after Lily rejected him or something, but I like your idea much better.]]
Draco was extremely intrigued by the new girl. He had her pegged as a Slytherin the moment he saw her, and he was right, as that tattered Hat proclaimed "Fayth, Veronica" to be a Slytherin. Then he saw her smirk and toss her hair, and tried to pretend he wasn't staring. He'd had much practice at this, of course, so it wasn't as if he was Potter, whose emotions were written on his face all the time. Speaking of Potter, he quite enjoyed watching Veronica's look of disgust at the bunch, deciding she'd fit in well in this esteemed House.
Looking at Veronica, he suddenly realized that she seemed familiar, but he would have remembered if he'd met her before. Fayth was a fairly old Wizarding name, but that family usually stayed out of politics, so Draco's father had no reason to be in their favor.
"No, I haven't met her, but she looks uncannily like someone with whom I am acquainted," he decided, but couldn't for the life of him, think of whom.
He decided to give up that line of thought in order to pick it up later, and glanced around the Hall, finding his godfather, Severus, looking at Veronica questioningly, then shifting his gaze to Draco. Draco smirked in greeting, his smirk suddenly turning to confusion and then a frown as he glanced back at Veronica, then at Severus again.
