Yeah - right - Draco's so frightened he won't even admit who he is in public, Harry gets the paperwork for him to have a wand, gets information to the Unspeakables and Aurors... but he didn't save him. Oh, no.
Nice concept. I enjoyed the interaction between Ron and Dr Granger. And Rose was a treat. Sometimes I want to smack Ron for refusing to grow up about Malfoy (and other issues) but overall, he did see the light.
Oh - and I liked Draco just taking over Harry's kitchen and saving him from red wine with fowl.
Nice job.

i liked the idea of Draco as a magician, as well as the concept of the death eaters and supporters having their magic bound and the plot behind the disappearance involving a cult that wants the next Voldemont.

The only problem I had with this story was that 1 you never followed through on what happens with the group and what the threat to Draco, 2 some of the characters reactions were a bit two dimensional and felt a bit unrealistic. and I'm not just talking about the end.

Overall though, the idea was good and it'll be interesting if you continued it.

Fascinating plot!
I loved the way you played Ron's interaction with the Grangers - it rang a bit too true. ;)

This begs a continuation - the ending came up a bit fast after all that beautiful set-up, and I'm dying to know what comes of Greg and Pansy and the rest.

Yes, a continuation seems to be what everyone wants. I'll have to work on that. :)

What an intriguing plot, and what a fascinating profession for Draco. I love all your allusions to Captain Shazam and the interesting interplay of Muggle magic with *real* magic ;-). You developed so many separate story lines, from the disappearing-purebloods-plot, to the highly original plot about Hermione's not-so-nice parents to the budding romance between Harry and Draco - clearly, a mere 18,000 words were not enough to cover and resolve all of that. It calls for a sequel! :-) Thank your for your many original ideas and for sharing this story.

I really appreciate your comment. I'm certain I'll be writing a continuation, although I do not know when. It was a lot of fun to write this, though.
