Hayley was opening her mouth to argue with the Minister for Magic's son when a boy she recognised vaguely as one of the older Slytherins did it for her. Finally someone was arguing on her side! She wished more people would do that, Kingsley seemed to have quite a clique of allies. "Thank you!" she said to the older Slytherin. "Witch hunts were centuries ago! We didn't learn about them in muggle primary school, because there are literally no muggles who still believe witches and wizards are evil - or even that they exist. The assumption that muggles haven't moved on just because wizards don't seem to be able to is exactly the sort of old-fashioned, ignorant thinking I'm talking about."
Hayley listened, appalled, as a Hufflepuff her age who she didn't know talked about being adopted and used for politics. That sounded awful, and strengthened her conviction that she was doing the right thing in bringing this up. "We could make things better!" she called to the girl. "I believe that. We need support, we need a little faith in humanity -" here she glared at the group who had said she was being naive "- but we can accomplish change!" As she spoke, she glimpsed Professor Styx lurking at the edge of the crowd. Thank goodness she hadn't mentioned him.
