Ryuuji had to actually pause to debate that over, "Well, that depends. They were getting on okay before Merope showed up but even before that, Sal seemed to like Tom better -- that's one of your Horcruxes, a sixteen-year-old boy from a book." Ryuuji couldn't stop a faint shadow from passing over his eyes at that, something in him oddly twisting at the memory of Tom and how that had ended.
Hah. Not thinking about that. With a flip of his short, tawny blond hair, Ryuuji dismissed those thoughts and smirked at Voldemort, "Yeah, thought you wouldn't have it either. Always made me wonder why people would be willing to accept it from you if you wouldn't do it to yourself, though."
With a shrug, he arched an eyebrow at the other man, "Sluggy? Horace Slughorn? You seemed to get on quite well with him. He liked sweets, taught extra Potions classes -- I was already getting advanced classes from Snape so didn't go for Sluggy's -- and was apparently something of a mentor to you while you were still in school."
