This fic sort of makes me angry. I just wanted to jump in and knock some Ministry heads together! I am pleased and relieved that Harry didn't make fun of Draco, but rather helped him out. And good on Draco for doing what he had to. *nods*

Yeah ... power corrupts and all that. The new powers that be figured they could exact their own revenge without anyone caring enough about the Malfoys to stop them.

They didn't bargain on Harry caring once he returned.

Thanks, hon.

When I started writing it, I hadn't planned on more, but the further along I got, the more I thought it might warrant another one or two parts. So ... it'll go on my to-do list for continuing work.

Well, you may say Harry is "always the fair, naive Gryffindor", but there are times you have to do something, and this was one of them. Good for him.
And your Draco is very brave, never giving up.

Oh, I suspect that between Harry and the newly-restored Draco, the Ministry is in for a world of trouble!

Harry testified before leaving and they still froze their assets? Glad Harry could and did take care of it!

He provided testimony in general, but the Malfoys (except Lucius) haven't had any sort of trial, and this investigation started after Harry left, so they 'conveniently' didn't consult any of that while on their 'witch hunt' (pardon the pun).

Oh ... Harry's not NEARLY done with them! He's about to embrace the power he has.

Poor Draco...good thing Harry is such a hero!

Yeah ... too bad he was away for so long. But Harry's not even close to being done with the Ministry for their treatment of Draco and Narcissa. *nods*

Mmm ... your icon ... love the longer-haired one of him (#4). Yummy!
