^^ This chapter made me so happy. This was a wonderful chapter of reconciliation. Harry first got his apology from Draco's eyes, and then his words, and even if he did miss out with the "tone" of Draco's words, this was wonderful. Certainly, no one, not Ron, Hermione, or the public will understand how Draco was forgiven, but this was nicely done. Snape might though. ^^

As I really liked when you first introduced it, it was interesting and worrisome to see Harry have to accept Draco's confession about his obsession. Although in the end, I think Harry missed out that Draco was obsessed with him as a rival and how Harry was able to muddle through problems and trials, rather than so much about the "wealth and fame." To give some credit to Draco at least. While I felt sympathy for Draco, I really liked the line when Harry confesses that he didn't think of Draco apart from when Draco was "right in front of him."

Yes, Draco made a very good Griffindor in this chapter. ^^ Still looking forward to how you wrap up this imposter business. Awesome job with this chapter.

I'm still hanging in there - So you haven't finished and the bloke's coming back for another go - great - more power to your arm.

I'm really glad Harry and Draco are back together again. Damn. I was glued to that scene when Harry encountered the imposter, screaming silent curses. While it wouldn't have been realistic or fun if Harry knew right away that it wasn't Draco, I really thought for a second that he [wouldn't die, of course] would get hurt because the imposter was able to trick him. Just curious, but do you plan on doing any scene in the imposter's view? Thanks for clarifying on Draco's plan by the way, although you also did that in this chapter. The imposter would have understood his obsession with Harry too then, wouldn't he? With that spell I mean. I really look forward to what happens with the Curse potion and the imposter. That Draco took the imposter out so simply and smartly was awesome. ^^ I liked when he rethought his position and planned like his character would, rather than just trying to figure out what Harry the hero would do. Wonderful job.

i suppose severus' days as harry's sitter is still not over, then. but again, maybe severus himself can't keep himself to not care. but surely, he had to be forgiven. he's in a hurry to save his lover to think much of his own safety. did JKR really have to killed him canonically, just so that harry could use it as his son's MIDDLE name? :( sorry, me ranting.
i'm just curious about the way harry did against the cobra curse, was that the standard auror procedure, or just his being diplomatic?

Well the plan won't work now, but I don't understand it. Saying the icantation twice...wouldn't he have been doing that anyways? My understanding was that the imposter wants to show Draco the icantation that will destroy him, and then use it. Either that or, was only going to say it once and Draco was going to ask him to say it again, but wouldn't that mean that the imposter wouldn't have "meant it" the first time? I hope this makes sense. I really love that Draco at the end forgot pretense and planning for the sole goal of not letting Harry get hurt. Although that very well may have been a stupid thing to do with the enemy being so smart. As for the spell, would it make the imposter become Draco, or would the imposter still be able to filter out the "imperfections?" Wonderful job. I REALLY look forward to this next chapter.

Soooo need chapter 27!!!

Soooo need chapter 26!!! I hope Severus doesn't hit the wrong person!

No? but it was a good guess at the time!

Oh! I really enjoyed that beginning bit when Draco noticed that bit about the imposter. With an enemy unknown and masked as he is, it was easy to assume that besides the "crazy," limitations couldn't be considered, and thus didn't exist for the imposter. Its nice to know that the imposter is "reading and copying even Draco's thoughts" and isn't so omniscient. Although all of this really does make the imposter's anger at Draco's obsession with Harry make more sense. The Draco he had constructed in his mind had crumbled a bit. Snape's bit was interesting along with the curse potion. The last bit of that scene was really well written in the words chosen. Him and Lily. Finally the last bit of this chapter was awesome! I had this really cool image in my head of the four getting ready for this rescue mission. :)

thank you! i'll be looking forward to the revelations in the next episode. how did the second draco came to be?
