Heh, this chapter moves the story along nicely, but it's mainly the humor I enjoyed, along with some very good lines throughout. I think Severus' line near the end was probably the classic, though. I admit, I'll feel very, very sorry for the next troll Pansy ends up combatting, she's going to have a lot of anger to unload on the troll and it's not going to be pretty. Meanwhile, I'm thinking that Tom may not have as long as he thinks to make a move.

Thanx, as always, for reading and reviewing. I wish I could take credit for Severus’ line, “There is a God. . .” but I paraphrased a well-known Russian proverb to make it Wicca-centric.
As far as the next troll that Pansy meets, can you say “Fine red mist?” I knew you could. . .
Tom is isolated and pretty near the end of his rope, calling up any of the major daemons is never a good idea.
Hmmmmm, Voldemort vs the god of destruction. Who do you root for in that one?
N!
