Okay, well, you know I voted for this one, so I like it. But now here's my critique.

I think your characterization is excellent. It's rare I see Voldemort written well. Your last line is the very thing that made me vote for this piece; it's perfect, especially the last 5 words. Some of the other lines are beautifully written.

However, the dialogue pattern is stilted. Voldemort has been shown, in canon, to be capable of normal speech. The drawn out "s" is distracting, and honestly, a bit silly. He hisses some of his words, but he doesn't talk like a snake. Clean that up and you will have a wonderful story on your hands.
