Unfortunately, though understandably, the vidder has chosen not to allow the vid to be embedded outside of the site. It is also password protected. I have no doubt that those few extra clicks and taps will prevent a lot of people from watching this vid, but I’d like to suggest that would be a mistake.

Disarm is a fantastic character study of Draco. I should go ahead and take the fall now of admitting that I’ve never been a fan of Draco. I was always glad for his redemption, as I’d be for anyone’s, but I never liked him as a person, nor did I find him especially compelling to ponder. That is until watching this vid.

The killer in me is the killer in you.

My favorite parts:

1. The scene where Dumbledore’s hand grips Harry’s arm and it becomes grotesquely clear that there is an utter disparity in support between Harry and Draco.

2. When you see that Draco was put into the position of murder by everyone he ever knew, it’s heart wrenching. And it becomes clear that Harry could’ve been that person, too, but for the people around him, but for Dumbledore’s hand, and his friends.

Let me know which parts you enjoyed, found moving, or if you had any reaction–expected or unexpected–at all.
