Wonderful take on a very strong Narcissa! I love the glimpses we get of both the Blacks and the Malfoys, and of a not-entirely-indifferent relationship between Lucius and Narcissa. Obvious who's in charge in *that* household. And Bella being...well...Bella at the Parkinson house was priceless!
My favourite part, though, was probably Narcissa's relationship with her mother. I loved the section where she started noticing everything that wasn't quite right; Narcissa strikes me as the observant sort.
One little thing -- I believe it was mentioned in HBP that Lucius' father's name was Abraxas (I had a fic that was started before HBP came out where he was named Dorian, and I now have to go back and change it).
