This is my last hurrah before the new book comes out Saturday. It's about the darkest thing I've ever written, but it was good to get my muses out and exercise them; they'd grown flabby since November.
Anyway,
please heed the warnings in the header if you read this. No one under 18 to be reading, please. Proceed with caution if you're squeamish. And no, neither Harry nor Draco dies. At least not in *my* world. I have no idea what Ms. Rowling will do with them!
