Title: Deliver Me from Evil...Please.
Author:akatnamedeaster
Pairing:Severus
Rating:G
Warnings: None
Medium:pencil on grey Strathmore paper
Summary:In the year after killing Albus, separated from his partner, torn apart by bitterness, and indulging old desires Severus begins to fear what he's becoming.
A/N: In working on story ideas for the final leg of the comic I'm running on my IJ I can't shake the idea of Severus being so at the end of his rope that he turns to the faith of his father's family at a desperate time or after committing a heinous act. Plus, there's just something about pairing Snape with religious iconography that I really love.
