I greatly enjoyed these letters. They are just what I would imagine Lucius writing. I liked that you portrayed him as a complex, intelligent, and multi-dimensional character. I wonder if he'll be writing any more letters to Severus? I look forward to reading more.

This seems exactly the sort of letters Lucius would be writing to his son. Wonderful. I really like the way he's portrayed -- he's still bad, but not evil to the point of being a silly cardboard cutout. He sincerly cares for his family and friends, yet he isn't a wibbling mushy sort who's 'gone to the side of the light'. Excellent character study! :-) What else would I expect from you though?

Yay! Another letter from Lucius! How did I miss this? Truly excellent stuff. You manage to keep the balance between loving father, likely sociopath, and sophisticated-man-about-town. I hope your muse keeps talking to you about this story!

Shiv: I love how you write Lucius... perhaps because he is exactly as I imagine him. I hope he continues to be a faithful correspondent.. what does he write to Narcissa?

I think it's great that you've written some Lucius stuff. Please do some more. Happy New Year.

Wow. What a great start. I love the letter writing idea and your letter is just brilliant. Funny, though. I never thought I would see YOU writing a Lucius/Hermione story. Almost seems like you're cheating on our Most Excellent Potions Master... ;) Anyway, I'm truly looking forward to reading more and more and more of this. You are such a fun writer to read.

Wow! Shiv, you are still the funny one, right? ;D This was quite serious, but I like it too! Interesting Slytherin character study.

Hello there! What an original story! I will certainly read your next installment; you have made me very curious, here! :) I like the characterisation of Lucius; there are many very clever comments here and there (and of course, the third paragraph is priceless!). I just hope Lucius will not be too "monochromatic" and a little more complex, as the letters go by. It's too easy to make the bad guys only purely bad (and Malfoys only purely arrogant). One thing that I noticed is the flow in the letter. The structure is excellent, its topic and intention are dead on, but the flow is not quite right. It is a little "point form" still, as if it were the canevas of a letter rather than its final version. I hope it does not discourage you, for it is not my intent; I rather hope it helps! Take care, and happy writing! I'll be there when you post next!
