I think this is the first 'Same Species..' chapter I truly liked....and that didn't come out right at all.

What I meant is, in past chapters I was so busy either fretting for Harry or getting royally pissed off at Draco, the rest just kind of blurred away. Now I've gain a new level of appreciation for this fic. There were so many things I found I really ,really like. From the chapter title (which has to be from my favorite Shakespeare monologue) to Draco's self realization (about damn time!), to Lucius calling Narcissa 'dear one' (and still the empty portrait and the parallels- they're breaking my heart) to Snape's (perfect!) cold look and Ron and Hermione's steadfast friendship with Harry and I really, really want to know what's up with the impostor, dammit!
Whew. Hope you can read that.

Harry remains my favorite. I love how you portray him, someone not infallible but still strong, understandably bitter but not jaded or malicious. I have a very slight bias for your other wip but after this chapter I think the gap between my affections just become that closer. :)
