Excellent! You really do bad guys/gals well. I did love Draco biting her nose off. And, poor Harry, still having to do things he finds distasteful and learning to live with them. I think the thing I like best is what you've done with the concept of what it means to have been in possession of all three of the Hallows. I don't think anyone's done that before. It could be an entire series, actually, though I don't see you wanting to do it. You like variety too much. Anyway - now I'm rambling. Again, great chapter.

P.S. Darn - I was so hoping Harry was disguised as Aberforth.
Yeah, I think it would be a little difficult to do a series out of it, especially because Harry's attitude towards it is so negative. That's another reason that I didn't write this story from Harry's POV.
Just loved the way you had us thinking about the morality of art! I still believe we are responsible for what we produce (or why bother with warnings) but the effect is really up to the reader and there is always the option of not reading! In the end though I suppose it is up to the writer whether to publish or not! Hmm a very interesting conundrum!! Still loving this fic and glad to catch up to it again!! More please soon! (I want my happies!!) :)
The question of artistic responsibility is very interestnig to me. I have occasionally seen people (usually professional authors who write "shocking" things) making what is essentially Yolanda's argument, so I thought it would be interesting to put it in her mouth.
Ah, Draco. Never change. What with the comment of the bet in the midle of the rescue and his last line: "He was the author, after all, not the hero." Lovely. And, I adore his pragmatism about Harry's worry about whether he saw the grey because of his own actions or if the death would have happened anyway. Though, I do wonder. Does the grey differ depending on whether the murder was human or animal? Just curious, because there's killing for necessity and then there's killing just to kill. I just wondered if it was the intent behind the action that caused the shadow or the action itself.
