Loved it! I think Hermione handled Draco very well! And that Lucius was relieved that Hermione and Draco decided to try to get along. Looking forward to reading the next chapter!

Okay, first, yeah!! I can type with two hands once more. And, there's only a little shoulder pain from my surgery. lol Gotta love good drugs. :-)

Okay, now on to TTotS - While I thoroughly enjoyed the last chapter, too, even though I couldn't comment, I will focus on this one. Hermione and Draco's confrontation was brilliant. I liked the way you moved them animosity to forced to civility to begrudging acceptance. I also liked that you had Hermione acting as the (slightly) more mature one. Draco still has a way to go, but at least he will hopefully be less of an ass now. I admit, I was worried at first about you saying he would be a fixture in the story. Even as a solid Dramione fan, I couldn't fathom the Draco you've written as anything but a pain in the ass. But, I should have known better than to doubt you. lol (Bad, me!! Can Lucius give me my spanking? tee hee hee) Ahem, erm... oh yeah, the story... I can see Draco being an inadvertent help to the cause. But, as you have written him so far, he's a bit to childish and self-absorbed to truly be of much real help yet.

I do look forward to loads more soon. I want to know more about the pureblood backlash, the students' reaction to Lucius, and the new Malfoy's continued acceptance of one another. :-)

Thanks! HG4eva

Well, Lucius could always wear the Disney Merlin getup in private, with nothing underneath...

As for Draco, I see him liking his "stepmother" much more than he'd expect. Come on, we all know he had a huge crush on her at Hogwarts, way back then...

Lol, Lucius meets Mickey mouse Fantasia. Loved the update as per usual, and looking forward to the next!

Very nice. I quite enjoyed the way Draco and Hermione interacted. She showed him she was not to be trifled with and he showed a more insecure side of him. I liked the way they interacted.

And personally I thought the spangled robe would have been HILARIOUS. I can almost imagine him in it, and the hat of course, with matching white gloves. FANTASIA!!!! Anyway, have a good day, update soon, and keep us guessing with the pureblood 'conspiracy.'

I really liked the confrontation between Hermione and Draco, I'm intrigued to know how it will pan out, more sparks or will they get on from now on? Lucius definitely looks better in Black robes hehe! Please write some more :)

ch 34 - That was a very good conversation between Draco and Hermione! I'm glad they're on the same side now, and that they've cleared up some misunderstandings. I think Draco will be an asset to the plan, as he is observant although he tends to jump to conclusions (like thinking Hermione was behind his eviction from the Manor). I doubt that Hermione truly understands her husband's fragile ego, that he needs her to say nice things about him after weeks of her battering him. Lucius should wear the spangled robe, perhaps on a visit to an astronomy lesson. Will they use the portraits as spies, to try to find out more about the anti-pureblood atmosphere? Thank you for updating!

I admit to being somewhat biased (reads: throw a Slytherin my way and I'm a happy Forbidden Forest camper), but I have only one Draco-related complaint... and no, it's NOT the length. *glares*

I realize the family resemblance is unavoidable, but PLEASE do not make me swallow the like-father-like-son codswallop again. I got enough of it reading the original series. >_<

You were correct in your assumption I missed one chapter release. I'm extremely sluggish when it comes to reviews, but if you insist I'll go back and force-feed you my opinion on it - you just need to say the word.

The consummate role-player I am, I totally understand the temptation Lucius must have felt regarding the robes. However, I'm a firm believer in the old adage that 'you only get one chance to make a first impression' and I would have hated to see Lucius decked out as a Dumbledore wannabe. It's bad enough he has to use the old man's bed. *gags*

Having said that... *body-binds Draco and makes off with him* A Malfoy is a Malfoy, correct? *shrugs*

I do like Draco, but he can be annoying and in need of a hexing sometimes. Oh and btw I really like the picture of Draco and Hermione you have on your LJ.

I'm not a fan of Ron either but I still think Hermione needs some friends her own age around. I know, I know, she's more mature than most people her age, but it doesn't mean she wouldn't benefit from some of their antics and drama once in a while.

Right... I take back what I said about liking Draco. I've just read the first few lines and boy have you made him out to be an arse. We haven't heard from Draco in so long that I had forgotten your version of Draco... sigh. The latest version of Draco in my head was one that I read about in a fluffy one shot the other day.

Oooh! Hermione has her claws out. Why is Draco being so poo-ey? :P

Oooh! Understanding :)

I would pay to see Lucius in those blue robes, with the pointy hat too, of course. :D

Ok, I understand where Draco is coming from and I think I can go back to my original statement about liking Draco.

Oh, and I bet he was extremely pleased that you named the chapter after him ;)
