The Family Black (Narcissa, Sirius et al) and the Family Malfoy
§ The Family Black (Narcissa, Sirius et al) and the Family Malfoy §
Snippet: OotP has pleased me greatly. And whilst I usually prefer preaching to the choir, this is just too good not to be shared with everyone. Without further ado, here is my Malfoy rant:
Hah. This book has definitely, definitely been the most satisfying for me, if only for its Malfoy activity. I am perfectly pleased with the characterisation of all three, although there have been a lot of Draco gripes--oh, get the fuck over it, he was like this in the other four, too--but Narcissa in particular pleases me. Oh, and I assure you I use only canon evidence in this rant. If something can only be made true by a complete stretch of fancy (i.e. the Blacks being a predominantly-Slytherin family just because of Sirius's Slytherin great-great-grandfather, which I know is far-fetched but I do include it), I either will not include it or will specifically say that it's only assumed. Now, down to business.
