Harry shouldn't take it so personal, he is tire after all.

Poor Draco! He really must feel rejected and alone now more then ever!

Please update soon.

Aw! I love this! You must update soon! The poem by Lord Byron made me cry. It fits too well.

That showdown with Ron and Harry was amazing! Gripping, real, all that. Can't even think of words to put down. WOW.

As I read this, I thought about all the arguments I have had as an adult and remember that the better you know someone, the more heated they get unintentionally. All the best intentions in the wolrd can't heal a broken heart, so Ron, no matter how much he cared ended up doing "the wrong thing" as it were. So elegant as always. :) This made my day before going to work.

I'm glad that Harry is purging. The soul needs that kind of comfort sometimes and with it comes the price of reliving every bad moment. Only in the end can we truly say that we loved if we've lost and either regained it or attempted to find it again. :) I think Dikinson said that well enough. The comparison to Snape and Harry was good, been there done that with a few teachers in school. Happens when you have an older brother who is the complete opposite of you! LOL

Hooray for Harry. :) Glad he's getting his life back on track a bit. It'll be even better once all of the unknown secrets about Draco 2 surface. At least then Harry kind find peace.

Skin has a song called "You Can't Find Peace" and somehow the lyrics jump to mind heavily in this moment. :) It isn't punk, but good strong female voice. I think she's German. Anyway. Here's a link for youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHX5uXh1AEw&search=Skunk (From a movie called Der Krieger und Die Kaiserin - Or the Warrior and the Princess.

I sit and wait
While you fight this man
You taste when kissing me
I use this time
To pace through our days
Before our life begins
Then you see that I'm your god
Corrupt your soul
And let the blood flow

You can't find peace
Without my persistance
I break the resistance
I see in you
There's no release
Without my incredible resiliance
To your will to grieve

Believe in me
I won't crush your beauty
I'll just lick it clean
Don't try to fall
'Cause I'll crawl
But when you hold it there I'll show
Devistation I will hide
Dreaming life right by your side

You can't find peace
Without my persistance
I'll break the resistance
I see in you
There's no release
Without my incredible resiliance
To your will to grieve
(repeat 2x)

God are you trying to kill me with tears?!! LOL I think you always find a way to bring me to tears with something you write! I must collect myself. What a beautiful poem, I am ignorant to the works of Byron, but I shall remedy that now. :) I haven't forgotten the book/diary...

I am glad to see that there is emotion behind young Draco, well, other than anger or the spite that he should feel. I like how you show Hermione's "feminism" with hyphenating her name. That's also a very Muggle attribute... I find it very realistic. :) I have a feeling with Hermione's efforts for all causes just, it is ever so fitting of her. And Ron, how very in character for him to still hold a gruge against Draco the first after so many years. The sins and of the father... and all that.

Harry, poor Harry. He's being a good man, trying to cope. His strength is laudable, but his suffering is keeping him from a fulfilling life. I wonder what happens next when young Draco springs more on him.

As per usual, I am eager to see what you have in store for us next.

I have one question... Irregardless = Should it be regardless? I've always heard people bashing irregardless as redundant. :/ *I don't know these things, but I did notice that Word lists it as an adverb, so I am guessing it is acceptable in English now.* My apologies, I am not trying to be "know-it-all" Granger. :P I am always intrigued by word usuage.

Brilliant as always. :)

As per my usual, I forgot something... haha

This reminds me a bit of the relationship progression of Vanyel and Tylendel! It's that same "equality" as it were. :) The teacher/student. Just wanted to say that, haha. I'm such a dork. I'm an ADD poster child if it isn't obvious!

I think you thrive in making people cry. I hate to see Harry suffer so much. I can only hope that you are going to be kind enough to have someone help ease his pain away. ^_~


Byron sounds very interesting, I am going to have to look him up. How that poem match with this story and Harry's feeling is beautiful.


Please update soon ^-^
