Oh, this was brilliant. Dark and creepy and an absolutely perfect twist at the end. Your Bella was so unrepentant, so - detached? - from what she was doing... it made me think of those true-crime shows where they interview serial killers. You captured her voice really well.
I adore Snape, and watching him get a bit of his own back, there at the end, was great.

Well done!
