Now that it's posted, I'll try to come up with something a bit more coherent...
This hits so many of my "homigawd, yes" loves and bullet-proof kink buttons. Ugly, scrawny, short, stringy-haired, teenage!Snape -- and in counterpose to completely-the-opposite-of-all-that teenage!Sirius. The intense, desire-filled, lust-addled expressions. And, well, the inclusion of so many of the kinks and themes that were in my wish list. Seriously, you hit the nail on the head with this response to my prompt.
Also, I'm so thrilled that you went for Marauder's Era here. It might be my favorite time period for this pairing, and there never seems to be enough of it.
The thing that strikes me the most about this piece, though, is that they've just beaten/hexed each other black and blue and yet there's an overwhelming tenderness about it. The expressions, the clasped hands, and Sirius' other hand on Snape's face... GAH!
A few other random things I love about this: The use of color! So effective for the bruising and whatnot, and also wonderful for the background details. The use of lighting -- the darkened hallway in contrast to the candlelight illuminating the characters' features. The difference in their wands mirroring the difference in their personalities. The (uncircumcised!) cocks, the nice, round balls, the right amount of body hair. And the placement of Sirius' leg!!! I probably should have listed that up above with my bulletproof kinks... Guh.
And also: Abjklqhucaohfus, oh my godddddddd!!! *flaily flaily flail flaillllll* THANK YOU for this! ♥
