Oh, wow. I love the way you've used my little ficlet (which was written before DH came out) and tied it in with the canon we got for the Malfoys in DH. I love the Malfoys in DH, but they don't exactly come off well, except for Narcissa, so it's wonderful to see Draco's POV here. I loved the moment where he's wiser than his father, but realises he can't play the role of Snape to his father's Draco.
Poor Draco, all his illusions stripped away. You made me believe in him here, with all his lost hopes and helplessness. I love that he just doesn't care about the Elder Wand at the end. And the last line is wonderful.
Fabulous - I look forward to finding out who you are!
