One thing Draco isn't is helpless. (I think that's canon; even in the sixth book, he's still plotting and planning and trying to do something).

Harry can idealize Ginny when she isn't there, and especially since they won't be communicating for a while. That definitely makes it harder for Draco.

I hope to be able to keep up this update pace until the end. I have two chapters left to write on this, and if I can write them before the end of twelve days from now, I'll have it done.
