Watching Mother Floo to Harry’s, without him, to have fucking tea, would be… difficult. But Draco had no interest in Mother’s barbed remarks on the subject, so after breakfast, he avoided her.

“There you are!” she called up, hours later. “I was not aware you still enjoyed your treehouse, darling. Dybbin nearly ironed his ears when he could not tell me your location.”

Draco climbed down. “I apologize, Mother,” he said, without elaborating. “I trust tea was pleasant?”

“It was,” she agreed, “but I fear I left my favourite biscuit platter behind. I need you to fetch it for me.”

Draco did not hide his glare. How transparent could Mother be? But, he was not in the habit of completely disobeying direct orders from his parents. So, biting back his sigh, he nodded.

Mother flitted away, apparently willing to ignore his emotions as long as he complied. “Tomorrow, darling,” she called as she wandered off. “I will not attend dinner tonight. Too much to do before we go to Azkaban tomorrow. Emotional preparation. I highly recommend it.” Then she was gone, and Draco braced himself to enter Harry’s personal space and reclaim his mother’s stupid platter. If it even existed.

“Harry?” Draco called. This boy. How could he leave his Floo unlocked and unattended? Anyone could get in here and wreck havoc!

“Harry!” Draco stepped further into the space, wondering what to do, when an ancient house-elf appeared in the doorway and widened his eyes.

“Young Master Black?” he inquired. Draco realized he might have found an ally to get him in and out of here without having to talk to Harry at all.

“Yes,” Draco said. “Narcissa Black Malfoy is my mother. She left a biscuit platter here earlier today?”

“Yes!” the house-elf declared, almost joyous. “Kreacher will fetch!”

Narcissa needs to stay out of this. Trying to force her son into anything will only result in him withdrawing further.

And she probably gave Harry the platter as a gift. I begin to hate her character in this verse.

Oh I know, doesn't make me like her behaviour more. And I hope that Draco will stand his ground, he is not a very likeable person right now, but he is at least authentic.

With Narcissa I feel she is only doing this, to manipulate her son into getting back with Potter, because she failed to raise him right. And she sees that Harry Potter is her ticket back into polite society. If foisting her son on him, then so be it. Modern prostitution is what this is.

and now I feel I shouldn't... I am sorry if this does not make me feel as you hoped it would? But I always felt that you are one of the few authors that appreciate honest feedback about the feelings your storylines invoke in your readers.
