Surprising chapter, for me at least. I do feel a little stupid for remaining lost in the realm of this imposter case, even after you admitted there was already a big clue revealed. Faustine...when she spoke of making Draco's soul bigger, she is speaking in philosophical terms, right? At first, I was under the impression that this whole business might have been created from a splintering of Draco's soul in some way, because the experiment he would undergo to make his soul bigger (whatever that means. Better to love? More powerful?). lol See? This is where my mind goes when it is totally lost. But I'm really glad you didn't go through the Veritaserum route.

Harry, I can see where he got his impression, although I'm fairly certain that Draco did not show up at Harry's doorstep as a means of hurting Harry again (getting him to crawl back). It is surprising in a way that he doesn't realize that Draco didn't feel he could tell the truth (or needed to), and that Harry thought Draco didn't care about him at all (as shown in the last chapter when Harry thought Draco was mildly interested in the letter), even after his insight (shown through the letter he sent).

I doubt that there will be smooth sailing from here, but I'm uncertain as to whether separating Harry and Draco was the smartest course for the case, now that I think about it. Sure there is a loss of professionalism, but even Harry was partially willing to remain on the case. Now it remains the be seen whether he imposter will try to go for Harry (more likely) or for Draco (less likely).

I look forward to the next chapter and whether or not this is going to go the course of a lie detector test, or dream of some sort. Or something else. Wonderful job.

Sooo need chapter 21!!! Something the impostor said still has me confused. It's almost like they want Draco for themselves. Draco really blew it. Sooo need more!

Welcome back!!! Oh my god, the angst is KILLING me!!! It'll be okay, though, right? It'll be okay in the end? Draco will figure his shit out and Harry will forgive him.

Whatever happens, this is an amazing story, and you are an amazing writer. Love it!!!

I was worried at first when Lucius began speaking, but it is good that he was able to do something unexpected, something that surprised Draco. Possibly because you have Draco smiling instead of smirking, his attitude seems sharper, less petulant, less childish, but still confident with ambition. At least, that's what I thought until you wrote Harry's perspective. I didn't expect that Draco would lie and say it was to warn away others, and to stake his claim. How awful. With Ron as a Secret Keeper, and Harry not moaning with sadness (to convince Ron to reveal the location), I'm not sure I see Draco getting what he wants. I must say this though: I LOVED the scene with Severus and how he came to his decisions. Draco is the only one still stunted in character growth, despite knowing what he wants now. Wonderful job. I look forward to more.

God, how marvelous. Harry is ... this is the Harry that we foresaw in Books1-4, before JKR turned a nascent hero into a whiny, shallow brat. He's mature, he's strong, he's pure and great of heart. I always love the way you portray Harry, and this view may well be the best ever.
I just want to read the last two chapters over and over again.

Oi... I'm way behind, aren't I?? Crap, chap 14 and there's five to go... alrighty then, let's look at it. Ron's amazing, that guy really devoloped some sense on the way to adulthood.. let's see how good he is at guarding Harry... Severus is a mystery as always in his machinations, but at least got some of the news (that are not exactly new, but well, if someone insists to wallow in self-pity and walk around with something in his eyes for YEARS one shouldn't be too surprised at the late revelation. Well and Draco's running fast on the way to a severly stubborn and hard brick wall... hmmm

Wow... Draco's really so far gone.. I wonder what will happen to the two of them.. it's got two possibilities really: Either they tither at the edge of the cliff and find balance and back in the last possible moment, or they fall to endless destruction. Hmmmmm, we'll have to wait and see I guess to get that one
