Well my half-assed ramblings are out the window. The wand was a key point that I forgotten about. As for why I felt before that Draco would have to kill the real Draco to potentially stop the real Draco from hurting any of those three guys: I dunno. But I don't pretend that Draco would have Hufflepuff feelings in trying to convince the other that he is going to commit a grevious error. It would seem more Syltherin to me for the problem to just be gotten rid of, rather than to go out on a limb and hope the plan works.

Let me say this though: I absolutely adored the part where Harry was contemplating about the prettiness of the rings coexisting on his hand. That was a lot of awesome symbolism of Harry's desires to have both worlds. Awesomeness! :) And yes, Snape is an asshole, I agree, although he is an arse that saves Harry's life quite often so... eh. He's okay. :) It is too bad OR I hope that Draco will be able to see that scene somehow between the imposter and Harry. Goodness! From an outsiders perspective who doesn't know that Harry feels when Draco's wand is near, that would be seen as pretty darn romantic. :) Wonderful job. I look forward to more. Are you planning on continuing your Ron story? Just curious.

I know you weren't sure because I like to keep my suspicions mysterious as you like to keep your plots that way *g* but, yeah, this chapter didn't shake at all, more like cemented it. The other Draco has only one reason to get desperate enough to try something like timeline switching and only one to go so pedantic about his task... that his actions in his own time didn't play out the way he wanted at all, but he wouldn't see before it was too late. Whether his intentions are pure and simple now I dare to doubt, because everytime I manage to unravel one of your plotlines in the slightest, you throw in a twist of surprise to spite me *G* not that I'm complaining, it makes the reading all the more joyous... anyway, the chapter was genius and Sev well... he's still a bit to ensconed in his prejudice to get through with the thinking, so I'm waiting for him to get the drift... should be really funny!!

Sooo need chapter 13!!! I'm surprised the other Draco hasn't tried to communicate with Harry before now. Why doesn't he have a hawthorn wand?

it feels like ages since ive read! ahh damn u ike! good chapter though...i knew snape wasnt all evil inside lol

Oi... very intense, very interesting chapter. So we get the first real hint as to what is going on and BOY.. that a hint if I've ever seen one... I'm into the alternate timeline theory myself for a bit and it's a very enciting application here. And I think it's obvious as to why the imposter (can we even call him that anymore?) came here of more like because of whom eheheheheee, that is going to get soooooo ugly!! Just Draco you know...

Sooo need chapter 12!!!

very wonderful last few chapters, though some of it went over my head, lol could have something to do with the fact its like 3am in the morning....lol, update soon! ill try to stay ontop of the chapters this time

The situation is definitely becoming uncomfortable for everyone. I absolutely adore the "Time Turner" idea. That would certainly explain how the imposter didn't enter the wards really (wasn't just lying in wait either), but just was there. Although that I have a bit of problem with only because I don't understand the time turner, and thought that once you used it, you couldn't just appear at a "future" time, meaning that since he's used it to go as far back as he has, can he still use its power to invade the manor? I'm confusing myself a bit. But assuming that you will keep any Draco in the same timeline for the most part, I wonder if the other Draco is trying to kill Draco before he does something stupid like hurt Harry, Severus, or Lucius. Although just by being there, the fake Draco is changing the course of things. Time is so confusing. So assuming he is an alternate dimensional Draco...well those possibilities are endless, and it would be a bit sad to just have this fake trying to kill the real one just for the sake of continuing their life. Sorry, I'm a bit on a tangent. As for the other sections, Snape utterly pissed me off! You haven't exactly covered how the war ended and played out, so I'm not sure if Harry was giving up his life as he did in the books, but for Snape to tell Harry that everything he touches ends up dying...incredibly cruel. As a former Death eater, even though a spy, I would think he would have a different and perhaps an even guiltier idea of death and who it actually surrounds. I'm interested in this Severus's impression of Lily. I thought it was actually pretty ironical that Harry was hanging upside down due to Snape's wards. Harry's section surprised me, just because, while I'm glad that he isn't expecting love, nor is he giving it until he is sure he'll receive it (although with Draco's lies, I'm not sure how that will play out), I was surprised that he was willing to windle down his feelings into sex. Sex that isn't intended to wrap tendrils around Draco's heart, just sex to be done with it all. A bit sad. Great job. Many characters, and so many developments needed for all of them. I look forward to the next chapter.

the entries in narcissa's journal... i really hope there's more to it. she left the last of it in hanging. if she did leave coded message(s) behind, i'll just count on you to spell it/them out to me. i'm hopeless with those things. mothers are vicious creatures when it comes to their children's safety (well, with the only known male baby-sitters in the animal world are seahorse daddies, i'd assume nature do agree with moms being the best child-rearers).
