I love the 4:04, because it reminds of another of your stories where you show how time has taken a new meaning for Bob with Harry, and I just love that idea, that Harry means a break in Bobs eternal punishment...
The whole computer lab fizzling and exploding, poor Harry, but very funny picture for the reader! And I like it how you insert that ominous bits into the humor, with what could really mean if Harry did that on purpose and his 'Uncle Justin would kill me' but Bob knowing better! For me that always hugs an angst bunny its very nice! Also the reminder that being Bob under Justin must have been very nasty (Bob knew Morningway and his moods exceedingly well. If fault lay with anyone, it was with himself for having overlooked such an important aspect of Harry's magical education. Bob fully intended to take full responsibility for his error, which would deflect most (if not all) of Morningway's anger from the boy.), but how he protects Harry from Justins darker side always makes me go from worried about Bob to AWWW! And ending with Harry never approaching a computer again = WIN (and reminds me of your story with 'Apple'!! :D)! Thank you!

And congratulations! You win brownie points for picking up my obscure "404" computer in joke. :D
