There'd been a smile, though brief and Angie pursed her lips as she stared only a little up towards this hard-to-read wizard. "Who says it can't be both?" Angie returned. "Chatting up strangers is a way to meet new people, but then, it's unlikely we're complete strangers, after all." At his next comment she merely smiled and replied, "For all you know, I could be as well."
His revelation surprised her, but then, given his gruff manner, she shouldn't have been too surprised. Hufflepuffs and Gryffindors, in her own opinion, had a tendency to be more friendly and outgoing, and she'd subconsciously ruled out both of those houses. Ravenclaw had still been a possibility until he ruled it out. Instead of making her less interested though, she lifted her chin. There was a note of challenge in his tone, and Angelina was singularly unable to resist a challenge. "Perhaps I do, but you're on duty, so where does that leave us?"
He was a Slytherin. It had taken five years for Angie to accept that her views towards Slytherin had been highly biased throughout her whole career. It was only seeing some of them come back to fighter against Voldemort, and learned all about Severus Snape, that taught her not all Slytherins were the same. It was still sinking it, to be fair. But this Slytherin here was in the ministry's employ, a Ministry that wasn't run by Death Eaters. What kind of person would she be to dismiss him because of his house?
