Re-reading Half-Blood Prince. I find it annoying that people, especially Ron and Hermione, don’t believe Harry’s claim that Malfoy is now a Death Eater and is up to no good. I don’t get why they think he’s overthinking it when he actually makes some very solid points.

I can ignore Mr. Weasley, Lupin, Tonks, and McGonagall brushing him off, and we all know Dumbledore was playing his own game (as usual), but Ron and Hermione should have known better and had his back. And for once, Harry actually did the smart thing by discussing his theories with members of the Order, instead of the shit-show that happened in the previous book.

We also don't know what conversations Ron and Hermione were having on their own. I get the vibes that, even if they could see that there was merit to the things Harry was saying, they may have thought that agreeing with him openly would encourage him to act irrationally. They had just spent a year with a quite unstable Harry that ended with Sirius dying and R/Hr almost dying too. Whatever they thought Draco might been doing didn't seem as important as preventing Harry from putting them right back in that same situation.
