Hmm very interesting developments, although out of everyone the Ministry took last chapter Lucius is the only one I don't see getting off the hook. Seeing as how he was already condemned as a death eater before and is known to have lied about his involvement in the first war, threatened people while he worked at the ministry and didn't even finish his first imprisonment after the battle in the ministry where he attempted to MURDER Harry and his friends. Narcissa at worst could be tried for aiding and abetting and massive negligence but the fact that she saved Harry and was instrumental to the Light side winning could lessen her charges immensely. Draco, while a massive douche and a bigot is not evil and was forced into doing what he did under the threat of his parents being killed. Snap was a double agent and was essential in keeping Harry alive for years preventing as many students as he could from being hurt

All that aside is the Lordship bond perhaps affecting Harry's way of thinking in subtle ways? It would explain why he is so passionate about defending what he sees as "his" Slytherins while being pissed at the Auror's for there kind of legit concerns regarding people with Death Eater affiliations and why he is willing to put himself in the same position as the ones facing a trial due to him using unforgivable's despite the circumstances being vastly different. Interesting talk with Pansy that really show another side to her. Shows her to be less of a "bad guy" and more or less very pragmatic about things. And assuming she avoids getting hauled off by the Ministry will the people she was made to torture be looking for a little payback? Even with Harry perhaps defending them It does not look like Hogwarts or even a large chunk of the Wizarding populace are going to be very Slytherin friendly.

very well written chapter.

-waits patiently for the next chapter-

about #9..

That was an interesting interlude between Harry & Parkinson, I feel they
somewhat 'get each other' now, but they have ways to go to completely understand
one another...I just hope Zabini gets on the bandwagon soon or maybe we can get
rid of him in an evil painful way! Just kidding...

...oh, and am I seeing a lil' bit of the Shield Maiden emerge here?

I see we are getting the 'Annoying Ginny Weasley' back in this story...gah! Now SHE
can die.

I love this fic! :)

oh my gosh!!!! This is such a good story!!! Its a lot of information and stuff but im really enjoying it!!!! keep going!!!!

Enjoyed this chapter a lot. Probably because Harry was putting people in their places & backing the "good" slytherins.

Oh great, I've fallen for the bug...*facepalm*

Kislik rings damn many alarm bells in my head. The only one that doesn't is the tiny one of benefit of doubt. -.-
Somehow I've got the feeling the two Lords didn't really die because of their bond....not to say that SHE would to it, but still....

I'm wincing at the thought of what mistakes lil' Harry will make. I hope he doesn't do something TOO stupid.

And the thing whit Zabini....I hate the little shit, but you wouldn't have included that way if you just decided to kill him off (well, 'cept maybe as an example).

Skin infection. one big SIGH. Seriously, how could something that's just on the skin infect/change people THAT fast? No, this runs far too deep. Nothing wil be able to remove the Lordship thingie.

@Sasunarfan13: Oh, I wouldn't be sure if Hermione would be able to stop Harry if he really wanted it. Not alone at least. :(

Before my ramblings get any bigger, I'll say goodbye for now. *mock salutes*

I LOVED that part where Harry drew his wand on that auror and both his friends backed him up and surprised Draco. Draco doesn't realize what it is like for them to show a united front like that to benefit him. I think he's totally going to like that :)

One of your a/n responses mentioned about Draco not knowing whether Harry is gay or not yet. I actually like that there really isn't a hint at romance yet. I think they have to get past the old opinions they had of each other and start learning what each of their personalities are really like which makes feelings and interest that develop believable (which you always do a great job on). I really like the pacing of this.

I like the premise for this tale. I hope that you continue it soon and I wish I could get the stupid in-site marking to work for me so I could find the fics again more easily.

Now we have some plans of action! I like that Severus is Harry's Shield. Wonder place Draco will have? Consort or is that to much to hope for? Still don't trust Kislak especialy after the info Hermione found.

Love the story and kudos and taking it into such an interesting direction. Usually I dislike any story where Lucius has a chance of walking free which pissed me the hell off in Canon, Narcissa was instrumental in the Lights victory due to her lie but I can still just barely stand her along with the other Slytherins, especially Pansy seeing as how she was very willing to sell Harry out at the first chance. Post war stories where Slytherins act like they were wronged and dont deserve any minor thing that happens to them usually irk me because for a lot of them, had the war gone the other way, they would be victimizing muggles/muggleborns and would not lose any sleep over it. Then again, Moral Myopia of any kind really grinds my gears.

So it is a real testament to your writing ability that I have gotten so into this story and my only hope is that Harry wont become anyone's tool for political gain or higher standing and that he does not compromise his own morals for the sake of his Slytherins. I am loving your Snape by the way and how he is trying to educate the others on how to NOT fuck things up lol.
