My first post-OotP Era Fanfic Rec: Flames on the SB/RL list (fic not epilogue, which I think damages the plotting a bit)
There are spoilers in the fic. RAYOR.

Thanks for that little ficlet. I can't believe its over. *sniffles*

Anyhow I noticed you are as much a Draco-redemptionist as I am and I just wanted to cheer you up. Here's an excerpt of a post I put up on fiction alley.

"Where was Draco? The only thing I was so disgusted by was the two-dimensional portrayal and lack of scenes for Draco! I am in such a pique that I am willing to write to JKR and vent my spleen. But there is still hope!!! Yeah there's two books left but if we are going by how many pages would be in each book, that would be around 1800 pages...plenty of pages upon which a redeemed!Draco will make himself known. Come on non-believers! War and Peace had around 1000 pages. David Foster Wallace's Infinite Jest had around 1000 pages. Thomas Pynchon's Gravity's Rainbow had close to 1000 pages. Isn't that enough room for some character developement for everybody's favorite ferret??? Everybody is declaring that Draco won't turn out good or at least snarky/good, but I refuse to bow down to the Greek chorus cries until I see the very last word of the very last book of this series. 1800 pages more to go FOLKS! Let the SS Leather and Libraries and SS Guns n Handcuffs live to fight another day! (And other Draco/Ships.)
And oh by the way, wouldn't you be pissed too if your pops was thrown into the pen? Come on folks!"

So don't worry Heidi!
Er...the rest of the post was quite complimentary towards the book btw. Sorry about remaining anonymous but I have no livejournal. :)
