someone mentioned it above, but i'm going to say it anyway: you do a good job of capturing anita's "i must protect everyone because they can't protect themselves" streak, even if they _can_ protect themselves... the fact is, with his magic, harry can probably kick the ass of almost anyone in the cast six ways to sunday... it's just that he's going through some minor changes, and he doesn't have his usual support system around to help him deal with that and the "regular" stress of someone trying to kill him...

if anita ever manages to let someone fend for themselves once in a while, it'll be a miracle.... it seems that the only people acting like adults in the anita universe are jean-claude and rafael... :)
