Excellent to see a strong Harry but still compassionate. At least this time, he is standing up for himself and telling Dumbledore exactly how it was and using his head and not trusting blindly. Maybe Sirius will finally realize Harry is not James. Maybe Rumus should just kick his butt when he starts drinking and gets maudlin about what if's and should have's. It will be interesting to see how Draco handles his new position and Severus reacts to Harry when he has to deal with him. Could his illogical reaction be due to Voldie influencing him through his mark against all Potters, like a built in imperious?? His just seems excessive for some reason. Great job so far. Looking forward to more.

Thanks. Sirius is going to do something than may or may not blow up in his face. Draco is going to go along with everything, while seeing visions of being Minister in his head. Snape is going to do his best to avoid Harry for two years.
