Oh, I think we can do more than just hope. Let us count the number of people I have on my/our side: the Lord Protector's son; a councilwitch who is also a legilimens; the students with whom the Headmaster works most closely; prefects who are also in the Order.. oh, and so many others. And, most importantly, people generally LIKE me. Most people don't actually like Padma, they just don't want her to dislike them.
