Draco sighs in irritation as Hermione once again raises her hand to answer a question.

He wishes he could answer a question, but literally no one knows sign language except him, so he's kind of screwed.

Snape asks another question, and Draco raises his hand just to beat Hermione, even though he knows Snape will call on her, because she can talk.

"Yes, Mr. Malfoy?"

Well, that was unexpected.

Infusion of wormwood, he signs.

Snape sighs. "I don't know sign language, Mr. Malfoy."

"He said infusion of wormwood."

Draco stares at Harry, who is raising an eyebrow at Snape.

"Yes, that's correct," Snape says after a moment, and he continues their lesson.

Throughout the rest of their lesson, Draco repeatedly beats Hermione in the time it takes him to raise his hand, and Harry translates everything he says with a straight face and avoiding eye contact.

After class, Draco comes up to Harry.

You know sign language? he asks.

Have for a while, Harry replies with a grin.

Draco smiles in return. Thank you.

Anytime, Harry signs, before walking away.

Draco grins.

Maybe he's found someone who can finally understand him.
