Well, besides the fact that he's loyal and loving (in a weird way -- 
he's loyal to Voldemort, which leads me to believe he is loyal to 
Narcissa, which leads me to believe that, maybe, he loves her?), he 
supposedly dresses well and has oodles of money. Oh yeah, then
there's 
that whole 'attractive' thing... which hasn't been proven (has
it?)... 
and he's clever.

> 2. What does Lucius want? - to be Voldemort's lieutenant or to be 
Voldemort?

I agree with what I've read from numerous others -- he wants the
power 
of the "man behind the name". He knows that being "the name" will get 
him into lots of trouble, thus leaving less time for other things... 
but, as we see with his act of 'being under the Imperius Curse' while 
Voldie was in power, he can have his cake (lots of power and 
evil-doing) and eat it too.

> 3. Will he live beyond the end of Book 7?

I think so. Then again, I'm one of those that hasn't put a lot of 
thought to who's going to die and who isn't.

Well, plotting to overthrow the world takes more time than you might 
think... er... but I wouldn't know, only being a 14 year old girl and 
everything... uhm...
 
> 5. Did Snape and Malfoy ever have a fling? - Is Draco their love 
child? Who was  on top?

Oh no no no. Snape's much too greasy for Lucius. If ever they had a 
fling, I think Lucius would have to have Snape's hair washed and 
thoroughly combed before _anything_ happened. And of course Draco's 
not their love-child -- I have a feeling that Snape's nastiness is a 
dominant genetic trait, meaning Draco'd have to be nasty too... 

But, if they were to have a fling, I think Lucius would pull rank and 
be on top.
