I didn't pass judgement until after I met him. Assuming and judging aren't the same things. I didn't assume that Rob, Tracy, or many others there were automatically the worst they could be, from having talked to them for the last few years. Didn't assume they were the world class people they turned out to be either. they convinced me. Chris started further down the scale, and slid backwards as the night wore on. You might recall a certain conversation in Nat's livingroom, with you, him, Tonks and myself? I was paying special attention to him, and he pretty well confirmed the bad feelings I'd had of him all weekend. The moment he started feeling comfortable with the strangers around him, his real face showed.
And I'll be honest with you. If we'd been at Bish's instead of Uki's .... I'd have found something to hit him with, and my promise be damned.
