Hmm, Lilty -- very interesting.
I also hope that Petunia is a squib, but I do not wish Dudley to develop magic powers because he is already a bully without them.
'Shells'
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Wouldn't it be neat if some of the errant magic Harry has done was actually Dudley (who did tend to be there)?
Stands alone in the "Draco is the Half-Blood Prince, being that the bits cut out of CoS relate to some skeletons in the Malfoys 'pureblood' closet which were originally concieved to pull together a theme of hypocrisy and tolerance and moved to a later book for a better reveal" corner.
Huh.
Huh.
I do like that idea. Besides, it would give some much-needed character development to Draco.
It would.
Which side of the family should it be on? (Either would be funny -- but would it be more funny if it were Lucius or the missus. . . . )
I'm half-dreading/half-hoping that Draco is Harry's half-brother. We already know James Potter was a bit of a jerk.
I've nurtured a fond hope that Snape is James Potter.
How the fuck would that even work? Haven't we seen actual memories where the two are separate entities?
Snape died and Potter is in disguise?
The old bait-and-switch, eh? So Voldie killed Snape on That Fateful Night?
I just get annoyed at the dad=good snape=bad thing and would like to see it turned on its haid.
