Interesting notion about Dark Magic being used for good or at least to ward against other Dark Magic and control it. Harry's got to be slightly off his rocker to do that to himself though.

Feedback? Still great writing on your part. No, Harry isn't written as a one sided caricature like many dark fics paint him. I felt his rage though when he was speaking to Hermione. That was harsh...what's amazing is that Hermione is taking it. She must want him bad or either she's just given up fighting him too much but I guess Harry is right he has the law and everyone else on his side. I saw the complexity and ambiguity about what he was doing when he was telling Draco what was about to happen. If he was truly a sadist he would have just taken Draco without warning and he wouldn't have healed him. It's also nice he's allowing Draco a friend, although it's too bad it's Ms. Cain because that bitch is gonna try to bring Harry down. Which actually may be good for him but I don't like her one bit, even if she's nice to Draco. OK, I'm rambling...that means I really liked this chapter.

Yay!! You update so quick, I'm figuring you already have this story completed. This was an interesting chapter. At least Harry has moved from not sure if he wanted to kill him to not caring if he lives..that's progress, lol. Who would have thought that Hermione would wind up being Draco's advocate? She's right about the unforgivables, and I"m glad she stopped him from deliving it. The beating seemed brutal, but it also seems like Harry is either punishing himself by punishing draco or he's trying to work out some issues by keeping draco's blood on his hands. Their interactions are complex to say the least...I'm loving this so much. Keep posting quick.

Okay, I've decided my previous commentary should be ignored. Your portrayal is simply wonderful. Please keep it up.

Dang, that is some scary and angry Harry stuff. So Ron is dead because he touched that necklace. Hmm, I'm not a fan of dark and scary H/D, but I have to say I am fascinated, and frankly this is a different Harry that I've been reading the past couple months. Nicely written story, thus far.

So what's up with Calixa? Interesting OFC...I'm glad she gave us some insight into the new world order at Hogwarts...Gryffindors, vindicative and cruel? oh for shame! I'm sure Harry had something to do with that, what a great role model he's being. I'm glad he's giving Draco his own quarters and not being a total asshole to him..ok, off to Ch. 10.

Sooo need chapter 11! Cali is going to try to use the bond against Harry. She thinks Draco will become the perfect weapon. Will he?

Love chapter 6 ending. Is that mean Harry will make an effort to be nice to Draco from now on?
