She read them over and then looked up at her charge, smiling. "Very good, Harry. I'm proud of you." Harry smiled and nodded his thanks. Hermione glanced over at him. "How did you do?" she asked, passing over her own results, as Harry took his letter from Minerva and gave it to his bushy-haired friend. Hermione's results were expected, Harry noted.

Ron had received one O, in Charms, three E's, in Defense, Transfiguration, and Potions, and three A's, in Care of Magical Creatures, Astronomy, and Herbology.

Narcissa Malfoy followed her sister, though her expression was carefully blank, as the three of them made their way into the sitting room. "Lestrange," Snape glowered. "Narcissia.
