Okay, back, and am going to try for something a bit more eloquent. ;)
First response upon reading, by the way: Aaaargh! Wankus Interruptus indeed!! DENIED!! LOL (HOMG, they're both going to be wanking themselves raw later.)
I love the stark, sharp narrative of this fic. It's so very OotP period Snape, and it creates an incredible ambiance.
And, yes, this. Fantastic hate-that-isn't-quite-hate relationship that they have. The dynamic is just perfect; both of them trying to be in control -- of the situation, or each other, of themselves.
It's a little detail, but I adore the "absurdly thick hair" remark from Snape. That tiny little phrase revels so much about Snape and his feelings about Sirius, donnit? Nice.
Okay, and ART! Abiourfa, YAY! I don't know which came first, the chicken or the egg the fic or the art, but they compliment each other fantastically. The art conveys a sort of dark, seediness that goes so well with the stark writing. The dynamic here is fantastic as well; aggressive, cocksure Sirius with a Snape who loves it and hates it and hates that he loves it all at once. Such a mood-oriented piece.
I love how skinny and bony and shaggy they both are; they've both been through some rough shit. Love scruffy Sirius; the signs of his age (or possibly the way Azkaban has aged him) are perfect. And his expression is just so Sirius. And you know I always love the ugliness of your Snape!
Fantastic collab, you two. And it's all for meeeeeee! ::cuddles it::
