I hope that doesn't turn out to be something Draco regrets. He's collecting enough of those to last a lifetime. But for now, he's right not to see them. He's in no shape for it and it might have unravelled everything we'd just settled. You're right that the sooner Lucius is off British soil, the better.
And yes, we're liable to be in some hot water over the level of clemency we're extending to one of Voldemort's top men. It's the best thing for Draco, in the long run, though - and right now I can't stand the thought of breaking his heart any worse.
When they start calling for our heads over it, Allie, just remember that we let Lucius go for Draco, not for himself.
