Wow.
The characterizations here are really masterful and how you somehow managed to make me see (and sympathize with!) Petunia's POV I will never know. *shakes head*
DD's heavy handed treatment of her, combined with her recognition that Severus was suffering Lily's loss as much (if not more) as she was was brilliantly handled. And I admit, I thought her reaction to hearing that Severus had killed DD was PERFECT. *g*
Wesley! OMG, so fun. I loved all his thoughts about offing Vernon. *giggles* And the food details rang very true.
Also it made total sense that, when seen through Petunia's and Severus' eyes, Harry was a nuisance. *sigh*
DAISY DURSLEY! OMG. I adore her already.
Seriously great work here, mystery author. Well done!

	Many thanks! Heck, somebody needed to do something about Vernon. Daisy went on to be Captain of the dueling team, got straight "O's" on her NEWTs, and became an Unspeakable. L (Reply to this) (Parent)
