OMG WTF?! How did I never remember to come back and comment properly on this?!

There were some fics that I utterly failed to comment on, so I was hunting those down to take care of them... and in the process, discovered that I'd failed on this art also. I honestly thought I had come back to it! I am so sorry! FAAAAIIIIILLLL! *shoots self*

Well, I know it's been ages since you drew this and your art has changed and evolved since then, so you probably don't even care about getting a comment on it at this point. But I still feel like I should flail at you properly at least a little bit. Because it's not like I don't still love this pairing or this piece.

Aaahhhh, actually, all of this revisiting of things that I've been doing in the past week or two is reminding me of all the things I used to love in the fandom and why I always loved them so much. And this piece of art is helping me to remember why I positively adore Moody!

You know I love you liek whoa for being able to pull off a more canon Moody (vs. that horrible movie thing). No one would ever call him handsome in any kind of conventional sense, but he's powerful and competent and tough as nails. All of that is way more erotic than merely "handsome."

And he's using those traits to be totally in control of this situation. Guh. He just looks so damn satisfied with himself. Ha!

And Snape, all ass-up-akimbo, making that expression! It's like he's caught somewhere in between "oh, fuck, what have I gotten myself into" and "oh, fuck, but he's shockingly good at that!" LOL

Weirdly, I think the sexiest thing for me here might be Snape's forearms. He's usually covered up in all those robes, so the sleeves scrunched up to let the bare forearms spill out is bizarrely hot. Also, his hand with the bent fingers, like he's grasping for something and he's not even sure what. Hnngh.

The little background details are fab, of course. The arrest warrants (which are being very thoroughly defiled; they might need to make new copies after this...), the dark-themed reference books, the odds and ends on the shelf... And the stabbed Voldie wanted poster still cracks me the hell up. Aurors, right?! XD

Gah, once again, I'm so sorry that I somehow missed commenting fully on this! It was just because I was failing at life, not because I didn't love it. ♥
