Time - for Severus and Harry
Oh, I'm really crying from this. Because it's a beautiful story, a beautiful love and faithful longing, a beautifully written work. Gah! The shortness of the story torments us as much as their short moments together torment them - when they've ended. Well, unlike Harry, I don't have to wait for arthritic knees, bored students, and death to reread the story and enjoy how beautifully you put them together. Well done, O mystery author. I can tell that you and words have had a long romance, too.
