Hee! Glad that you liked Rita. She's such a great villain!

Thank you too for saying that about Draco as a developed and realized character. Honestly, that was what drove me to write this story, to see Draco fleshed out in a way that JKR neglected to do.

And many thanks for coming along on this ride! It was always so encouraging to get your comments and know you were interested in my little world.
