	HEE, goat voyeurism! These are lovely! I really like your drawing style. (Reply to this)

	I like these a lot! Severus all curled in on himself. flaps The last is very fluid (hahaha goat!) and the 2nd has great lighting. <3<3 (Reply to this)

	lol @ the surprised (or is it jealous? ;) ) goat in the last one! (Reply to this)

	I know this sounds odd, but I really love the bar and the windows in the first drawing--I get such a strong sense of that room. Enjoyed the hay-rollers, too! Maggie (Reply to this)

	So cool! I love the whimsical style and the contrast between Severus' wretchedness in the first picture and the happiness in the third. It also makes me squee/bounce to see laughing sex! I wish there were more pictures of joyful hawtness like this :D (Reply to this)

	Oh marvelous! What a great threesome...I mean the three pics not Abe/Sev/goat (although I could be convinced of that. g). Love how melancholy Severus is in the first, how tender Aberforth is in the second, and how joyful they all are in the third. Excellent work! (Reply to this)

	Ha! I almost wrote this story : ) Good thing I didn't, because you did more justice to the idea in three pictures than I could have with words. lovely triptych - i like the atmosphere of all three, but the first two especially, the perspective in the first piece, and the humor/joyfulness in the third. Awesome. (Reply to this)

	Wow, this is quite impressive! I love all three arts for different reasons. :) I'd never considered this pairing, but these images have convinced me! Great job! ^_^ (Reply to this)

	EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm completely NOT supposed to be looking at this at work - but OMG!YAY!!! More later - but THANK YOU so much!!! (Reply to this)

	winterwitch 2010-05-21 10:33 pm UTC (link)
	ggg This is awesome! I wonder WHY the goat is looking like this - envy, awe, curiosity or wanting to learn somthing? lol Anyway, Severus's sorrows have obviously been taken care of. (Reply to this)

	I like the progression of each scene! (Reply to this)

	Bwah! at the goat. :-D These are all lovely, so different in mood and tone. (Reply to this)

The first one, the despair is almost palpable. So atmospheric and setting the scene.

The second one I love the way the moment is candle-lit. Snape's listless hair and arm are <3

The third one I just love the horny goat. (and the fuzzy horned animal watching them is cute, too) ;)

Seriously, their hair, Snape's curling toes, the definition of his chest/ribs and the faint Dark Mark, along with Aberforth's cock-eating grin *g* are just divine. Brava!

	These are great! There's a really nice progression. You say a lot with only these three drawings. And I adore the expression on Aberforth's goat in the last one. LOL! :D (Reply to this)

	bridgetmkennitt 2010-05-22 02:40 am UTC (link)
	I love these pictures. The first and third are my favorites, the third kind of winning just because the look on the goat's face. XD (Reply to this)

	lookfar 2010-05-22 06:35 am UTC (link)
	I really like these - they remind me of the plates in an old book - and especially the rollicking fun spirit of the last one. (Reply to this)

	didodikali 2010-05-22 06:45 am UTC (link)
	Ahahahaha, that last one! And the first two are lovely, too. Great stuff! (Reply to this)

	Those are just fabulous! (Reply to this)

	These are quite beautiful, and form a wonderful story in sequence. Aberforth/Severus! (Reply to this)

	tetleythesecond 2010-05-23 09:44 am UTC (link)
	This is just fantastic! I love how you drew the two men; their facial expressions are just wonderful. So is the scenery -- there's such warmth and such a realistic feeling to it, with the slightly misty air in the bar and the rough texture in the bedroom. Love their clothes and how you use light ... and that goat, oh my! Perfection! <3<3<3 (Reply to this)

	donnaimmaculata 2010-05-23 09:51 am UTC (link)
	Hee! Aberforth! He reminds me of a 70s film or rock star - Kris Kristofferson maybe, or someone from ABBA? He's quite butch, your Aberforth is. Very nice work, I like how each picture captures a completely different atmosphere and evokes completely different emotions. And is it me or is the goat staring at Aberforth's bare arse? (Reply to this)

	cardigrl 2010-05-23 07:41 pm UTC (link)
	Oh wow! The goat is hysterical, but I the first two are really extraordinary. The atmosphere really comes through, and the despair is palpable. (Reply to this)

	atdelphi 2010-05-24 04:05 am UTC (link)
	squees! Oh, what a perfect piece to end the fest with. I adore this pairing, and this trio - a series of vignettes in and of itself - is just wonderful. I'm grinning like an idiot here, and I'm going to bookmark these for any time in the future when I need a smile. (Reply to this)

	tattooedsappho 2010-05-24 05:59 pm UTC (link)
	im not sure what i like more - severus' curled toes or the look on the goat's face! ♥! (Reply to this)

	angela_snape 2010-05-25 12:04 am UTC (link)
	These are fantastic! I love that they're black & white. (Reply to this)

	alisanne 2010-05-25 12:38 am UTC (link)
	Oh those are awesome! Really beautiful work, dear! And that last one made me melt and chuckle at the same time. g That poor goat! (Reply to this)

	lyras 2010-05-26 02:46 am UTC (link)
	Ooh, this is fantastic! I love the Bacchanalian look you've given Aberforth, and the last one is so full of easy pleasure. (Reply to this)

	cranky__crocus 2010-06-01 05:56 pm UTC (link)
	That art and drawing style is very impressive - everything from the ambiance of the pieces in general down to the details of the goat's rather surprised features. Loved getting a real look into the Hog's Head. Snape's sleeping face is excellent. Well done! (Reply to this)

	woldy 2011-02-02 06:43 pm UTC (link)
	The first two pictures are very touching, & ten there's the startled looking goat in the last. Fabulous! (Reply to this)

Oh yes! Lovely! Thanks for the link.

That goat is far too cute to be seeing that *snort*

These are fantastically atmospheric drawings. My first thought was that I wished I'd seen them before I wrote the story, but actually they are pretty powerful and I think they might have influenced the way I saw this pairing TOO much. It's as well that I'm seeing them now.

I love the gentle concern in Aberforth's expression in the second picture, when Severus is asleep and so can't see that softness. Oh yes. That feels so right for these two.
