This is gorgeous-- Dudley is so believable and so sympathetic here. I love that it doesn't gloss over his past, but allows him to be likable and move on. YAY REDEEMED DUDLEY! I think that his fears about Magic from his past experiences were perfectly expressed. I'm glad that Sheila got put in her place during that exchange and hope it opened her eyes. Dean Thomas was fantastic-- I love him in this role! Him working this kind of job is perfect and he was great at it. And Harry and Arabella were complete delights. Great job, Mystery Author!
