Thank you so much! Your feedback is always worth waiting for, you know. You always put so much thought into what you say, and I always look forward to that.
Most important: don't for one moment think you can't write well, because I know you can - I've seen the evidence, my dear! And I'm not the only one who thinks so, you realize.
Your point is good, that there's no snark. By this point, I wanted Draco to be numb to anything...he's just lost that edge to him. Well, plus it was a short story, right, and I wanted to keep writing and writing until it was a novel.
The addiction plot - that came to me right away after I read the Charm in HBP. No way could that not be addictive. I knew I had to write that, and poor Draco, my favorite whipping boy, got to play it out for us. The stuff about "if I only do it 6, no 7 times a day, it's okay" and the "I'll wait an hour, no a half-hour"...written from sad experience.
