It’s been a while since I’ve read the book. I don’t know whether Slughorn would be amenable to such a direct approach, or would prefer to make the first move. If the latter, Harry would need to be more subtle.
Much of Slughorn’s reticence was the result of the return of Voldemort and the resurrected Death Eater public face. But you are right nontheless. Perhaps it would be better to work his way in via other members of the slug club for example.
Definitely, especially since Harry should be looking him up and courting him early on!
“I’m the boy who lived! Let’s have a tea party. We’ll invite Draco (not in disrepute yet) and Hermione.”
I wonder if Harry will start making that sort of move soon. It seems to be the kind of lesson that HP:MoR may like to impart.

You’re right. I’d probably work my way in via other members of the slug club.
