Want to know something funny? I read it as "sly"...

I have to say, even though I love the idea of Lucius being a mink or a fox, I may have to use spider just because I don't know HOW the HELL I would get a fox or a mink into Hogwarts...

But, I haven't decided yet, so I hope folks keep the suggestions coming!

BTW---you were missed at trivia, but boy, do I understand about being tired!!
