Quick introduction: Hi, I'm Jennifer, 29, from Alabama, new list 
member. 

Now for Draco: I fear that we've arrived at the point of Draco: 
Irredeemably Evil (DIE).

For me, Narcissa as a positive influence in his homelife was an 
important part of redemption scenario. Narcissa as Bellatrix's 
sister, still allowed on the tapestry, does not seem to be that 
influence.

Draco shows himself as a power mad Daddy's boy. Sure, we've always 
known this, but I had hoped it would start to change. Dad is in 
jail, removed from a direct influence, and I don't think Draco is 
going "Wow. Now I can form my own opinions and make my own way." He 
seems more "Dad better be out of jail soon so we can plot revenge on 
those mudbloods and half-breeds."

So, in PoA, did Draco *know* his cousin Sirius was innocent and just 
wanted to torment Harry however he could? Or did he think the whole 
Black family was on his side?

I'll miss my Harry/Draco. I don't think many will be inspired to 
write it after this.

Jennifer
