Pippin:
None of this  changes the fact that Draco's steps towards the bad seem so confident and his steps towards the good, if that's what they are, are  so halting and secretive. 

Geoff:
Not sure I agree. 

They often mirror each other. 

For example: on the Tower, Draco's  bragging steps towards killing 
Dumbledore are matched by his faltering and his hesitancy following 
the latter's offer of sanctuary; at Malfoy Manor, you would think that 
identifying Harry to gain the thanks of Voldemort would be paramount, 
yet he hesitates and doesn't go that way; His apparent distaste and 
horror at the beginning of DH at Voldemort gratuitous killing of Charity 
Burbage.

Somewhere, conscience is trying to struggle through.
