I've read a lot of slash and this tale was excellent-so well-written and creative. A unique storyline featuring my favorite character, the devious, manipulative, arrogant Lucius Malfoy doing what he does best - finding a way to give himself absolute control over another and increasing his wealth in the bargain. Was his method purely for increasing the team's wins, or was he privately enjoying the sexuality of his ministrations? I like how you left Lucius's personal feelings totally ambiguous and outwardly clinical, while showing all the angst and humiliation Harry was going through. Oddly, Lucius was doing Harry something of a favor, shoring up his slide toward physical and mental disintegration. Harry's behavior is so believable; the stress of his young life must have been overwhelming. Fertile psychological ground for Lucius to slither into control and take what he wanted from the young "hero". Will Mr. Malfoy ultimately bring something more personal and meaningful to Harry as a person, or is our premier Slytherin truly just interested in the team? I love the ambiguity you've left us with (but I do wonder how many team owners are willing to milk the prostate of a flagging team member, LOL). Very Fine writing!
