The fact that they were left in Hogwarts for months with the growing cult and no rescue attempt also worried Camilo. He had arrived at the same logical conclusion as Mamie that the Neo-Alliance took over the outside too, though it took him some time to accept this. There was no way to find out how bad things were in the wider wizarding world, so he kept the hope that there were still many good witches and wizards out there who had the freedom to act and speak as well as think (not under the Imperius Curse). It would be great if they would send help quickly - he was not sure what Rosier's ultimate plan was, but had the feeling that time was running out.
Mamie was right: he needed his lil bit of hope. He could tell that his words failed to convince her. If only he had some more time and evidence to back him up! For now, he had already said too much, so he would move on and hope he cheered her up a little.
"... So. What were we talking about? Oh yes, the great magical Quidditch teams of Britain and Ireland. Which is your favourite?" he changed the topic, leaning back in his chair and putting on a smile again. That conversation never happened, yes? And there was a right answer to his question Caerphilly Catapults FTW.
