> 1. Does Lucius have any good qualities?
> 
	<tongue in cheek>
	He is concerned with proper hygiene. He knows that a grubby sock is
just teeming with germs and must be disposed of. 

	And he bought all new brooms for the Slytherin Quidditch team. That
was generous.

	And he gave Ginny a diary, knowing that her family couldn't afford
to buy her a new one.

	</tongue in cheek>

	He only has one child. Imagine a whole mass of little Malfoys!

> 2. What does Lucius want? - to be Voldemort's lieutenant or to be
> Voldemort?
> 
	Lieutenant. It's easier to avoid the firing squads that way.

> 3. Will he live beyond the end of Book 7?
> 
	Yes, because he's such a weasel. But he's going to get what's been
coming to him. I think of the Malfoys as the wizard equivalent of the
Dursleys. They're going to get their comeuppance the same way the Dursleys
have been getting theirs (ballooning aunts, ton-tongues).

	A day in the life of Lucius Malfoy:

	7:00 am	Time to wake up and berate house elf for not singing "Wake
Up Sunshine" in the key of F.

	7:30		Breakfast. Berate house elf for presenting copy of
"The Daily Prophet" upside down.

	8:00		Lovingly polish collection of Dark Arts Memorabilia.

	12:00pm	Lunch. Berate house elf for putting two sprigs of parsley on
quiche, not three. Two sprigs are for the even-numbered days.

	12:30		Write stern letter to Draco threatening to throw out
his vintage collection of Chocolate Frog cards if he doesn't get better
marks than that mudblood Hermione Granger in Potions ASAP. Berate house elf
for not clipping the claws on owl at a precise angle.

	1:00		Nap time. Berate house elf for fanning too
vigorously.

	2:00		Inspect gardens. Use Avada Kedavra curse on gnomes.

	3:00		Tea time with Narcissa. Berate house elf because
cookies are too sugary.

	3:30		Write love letter to Voldemort.

	4:00 		Croquet with the Crabbes and Goyles. Berate house
elf for twitching while being used as a mallet.

	6:00		Supper. Berate house elf for pounding head on the
good china cabinet.

	7:00		Backgammon with MacNair. Plot to rid the world of
mudbloods.

	8:00		Retire to drawing room with brandy. Berate house elf
because fire in fireplace is too crackly.

	9:30		Time for a bubble bath. Dream of Snape.

	11:00		Retire to bed after a long day. Berate house elf
because bunny slippers are not fluffy enough.

> 5. Did Snape and Malfoy ever have a fling? - Is Draco their love child?
> Who was 
> on top?
> 
	I can tell you that the house elf is always on the bottom.
