Thank you!

I see Alice as someone very cold and correct, raised in the strictest pure-blood tradition, but exactly because of that, she wants what she perceives as right for her. And magical manipulation isn't it.

Draco has been frustrated in the past at Harry's preference for glamours and bluffs instead of direct confrontation. I don't think he'll have as many problems with it anymore.

Draco will, ah, express his adoration in the next chapter. In several ways.
