Warnings: Implied minor character death.
Summary: Draco, the Deaf son of a wealthy businessman, has always had the best of everything, including a habit for rapid signing and a reputation for having a short fuse. When his father disappears, the interpreters who have been on the receiving end of Draco's attitude and temper refuse to work for him. Enter Harry, our 'new on the block' interpreter with a heart of gold, exemplary skills, and a few secrets in his pocket.

So of course I adore everything that dacro writes, and this is no exception. It's non-magic, but I love, love, LOVE Harry's characterization - it's dead-on for his canon personality. Draco is too, because I know deep down that Draco is a big ol' softie and JKR just got him a bad rep. I also love that dacro informs us about the Deaf community, but it never sounds wordy or over our heads. Fantastic!!! Go read it now!
