I love how brilliantly snarky Draco is in this, and how chilling Scorpius is, especially when we realize what's happening.
What a great ride. :)
Well done!

Thanks, hon! I swear I never would have finished this without y'all!

Excellent story, well thought out and paced. I really felt the dread at Scorpius being a Horcrux. It was just a great adventure and I really liked that Draco automatically helped Harry, and his concern for his son was very touching.

Thanks so much for being part of the fest!

Thank you so much! I had a wonderful time in this fest and that is mostly thanks to the lovely mod team.

Thank you MA *g* for picking this prompt and bringing a plot bunny I'd had for over a year now to fruition. It's better than I could've imagined. Harry's instant recognition was stunning and the eerie feeling that he both detested the Horcrux and missed it was perfect.

I felt so bad for Scorpius and his inability to control the beast within him. Oh, gag, over the transfer from Scorpius to Harry. It was sufficiently creepy as it should have been. And that was a brilliant resolution on how to get rid of it. Dementors. How cool.

I adored that Draco was quite snarky and belligerent up until he realised what Harry had done for his son. Harry had sacrificed his own life for Scorpius. *sniffle* And then to have Draco try and save Harry was wonderful.

Great lore and wonderful story.

LOL! Thank you so much! I can't promise a sequel, but then again, the muse is a strange one!

This story was fantastic... I'd really like to see the relationship between Harry & Draco develop further.
