3KDoI Chapter 24

[mugglechump]

So, that was too easy. I think John and Simon just moved Simon's car and turned off all but the sitting room lights so that Ginny and Ron would think Draco was alone. I don't know if they moved Draco, or if they just ambushed Ron, or what, but I do not think things are as in control as Ginny believes.

Also, Ginny didn't tell them about Narcissa! *bangs head* She seems to keep forgetting that his mother is dying and every second she farts around is one more second he doesn't get to spend with her before she dies! Ginny! You frustrate me!

I was kind of glad Simon got angry with Ginny. It's nice to know how far he can be pushed.

“Want ta go over your shortcomings an faults next, then?”

And yet he's still witty. *loves Simon*

"...an here we are eight years later tryin desperately ta get our woman o fire to do her soddin job.”

Yeah, I love him.

Now the wait begins for the NEXT chapter. *is impatient*

ETA: While putting together a lyric meme (in honor of a certain friend's birthday), it occurred to me that I have A LOT of British music. It makes up a significant portion of my music library. Not just older bands like Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, and The Clash, but quite a bit of new stuff, too. Interesting.

This is probably one of those times when I'm absolutely convinced about something that is completely off base. *sigh* It still feels off to me. I don't know exactly what I think happened, but I'm having a hard time swallowing it going down without a hitch. Other things I'm considering are:

- John & Simon sent word to the Malfoys
- Ron felt pity for Draco and took matters into his own hands(not sure where this would lead, but it's possible)
- Draco performed magic inadvertantly

I don't know. It's bother me until the next chapter comes out.

I've got another to add to the list purely from the point of view of a writer:

- John and Simon don't know that Narcissa is dying, so taking off and hiding Draco would up the level of drama and angst as the Ministry raced against the clock to locate him.

Ooo, good one! What a couple of plotters we are!

Of course, you know she's probably going to do something completely different and all our theories will be blown to bits ;)

And yet we'll still be thrilled. *sigh* This story really has me in its clutches!

Oh yes, we'll just start trying to figure out the next chapter! We're such an adaptable bunch of addicts ;)

Lyndsie just came up with the most probable explanation yet! John and Simon cleared out of the house, leaving Draco completely alone for the first time since the break-up. What if Ron went in and found Draco had harmed himself and needed to get him to Mungo's right away to save him?

Oh God, I'm totally freaked out now.

Oh god, don't even go there! Besides John and Simon hid all the sharps and meds *nods*
