Aww Harry...I'm sure Draco can come up with something for you to do...lol, anyway.
Certainly a very straightforward chapter. Harry's finally managed to convince even Kingsley he needs an enforced break, but I highly doubt Draco was hoping that Harry would get a break while in the middle of his case. Though if Harry comes back unofficially (although he'll still be mentally in auror-mode) Draco might finally break Harry down far enough to accept some real relaxation time. I look forward to this greatly. Or, Draco pounding down Harry's door, pissed that another Auror is on the case suddenly.
Shadow's quite the interesting character, but again, straightforward. Nothing she said about Draco was all that surprising, though...that his obsession with Harry has morphed over time; that she fears Draco's focus on Harry will make him destroy himself or harm the club. Which is ironically similar to Harry's current situation: that each of the men might become so focused on one thing it will ultimately cause life around them to erode or lead to self-destruction. Nice parallel.
Oh, and now I have another two words to add to my connotative word list: desire and obsession, along with dreams and fantasies. Though you used obsess as a verb, so maybe it won't go on the list. Still, I love the various connotations. Or just reading too deeply into things. Both are good.
