I am totally adoring your story, and it just continues to get better and better. I was skeptical at first when I saw the chapter was going to be all diary entries, because sometimes people just a mess of the first person thing, but it was great. The throwaway line about being nice to Granger the week after the wet dream, and the way he's so self-absorbed and yet concerned for his mother... it's really great writing about a really in-character Draco.

The allusion to a dream shared with Harry in his closet is intriguing, I guess I'll have to wait and see where you go with that. His anger at his father and his emotional incoherency (relying on alcohol as a truth telling tool) is all portrayed very vividly, yet rings true.

I cannot wait for another chapter, so Whpssh! *cracks whip* Go write more, you don't need a life... *grin*

PS Watching adult swim? When you went to get food? *is confused*

"going to get food" with me frequently means leaving the comfort of my room--which is in the attic, which is above the second floor, which is above the ground floor where the kitchen is. I tend to get sidetracked while eating/waiting for water to boil/otherwise doing sustenance intake related things by watching TV (especially if there are no chores in need of doing). If it's later at night, I turn on Adult Swim; if it's earlier in the morning, I turn on VH1.
Unless there are dishes to be done or laundry. << I figure it can't hurt to do something useful once in a while instead of locking myself in the attic all the time.

So adult swim is a TV program? Ahhh. That makes more sense then. My husband does laps down at the pool 3x a week, and the pool owner calls that time-slot "adult swim" to distinguish it from the rest of the day, when kids are having lessons or the general public is allowed in. I couldn't imagine a pool also selling decent food, or you actually enjoying watching someone do laps. I should know, I've had to wait for Spouse before, and attractive though he is, it was terribly boring.

Continuing my curiosity: what the heck kind of TV program is named "adult swim?"
*grin*
