Summary: Snape receives a letter.
Note: For ancarett who wanted Snape, "parchment."
The parchment crackled as Snape drew it toward himself, over the wood of a desk worn by generations of hands. How many? It didn't matter, really. Enough that it was not-quite smooth, the grain rising against his fingertips as he rubbed them absentmindedly on the surface. He lifted the folded and sealed letter and recognized whose hand had scrawled his name. Biting his lip, Snape cracked the wax of the seal and began to read. He had anticipated receiving this, though he hadn't known when it might arrive. All the instructions were there, the letter unsigned for both their safety.
