Cold and nasty! Well done.

Why, Thank You. I tried. Originally I only wrote the scene with Dumbledore, because I have a good set of ideas of how I wanted that to go down. Early reviewers asked for more, mostly the scene with Tommy, some about the Ministry, so I gave it a try. I still don't feel either of those is as good as the one at Hogwarts, but I did my best to give a W&H twist to both.
