Thanks very much - I'm really pleased you enjoyed it! Yes, those Hogwarts staff can be a nosy bunch, indeed ;-)
My god. I never really thought about Slughorn, but now he's in my brain and I must read Slug porn. Thanks a bunch ;)
Ha ha! Well, if you still have a craving, you could try the LJ comm _slugclub_ (or indeed, my journal for other Sluggy fics, if you so wished). He's an acquired taste, all right! ;-)
