Beautiful!
Hunting around, hoping to find more of the Black Legacy, I discovered this gem! Wow - How did I miss it?! It was wonderful, watching Snape's slow, Slytherin seduction of Harry, bits to think about, here & there, bringing Harry to him, begging & wonton! I loved it - knowing that he also loved Harry, coming to recognize that was so, not to worry that he was just doing it so save Harry, but because he truly loved and wanted him, as well. Saving Harry, yet also trying to protect himself, finally giving in to the need to simply love Harry, over his own - what must have been many concerns, great risk. To hear that Love was worth any price - that was so simple a statement, yet just the perfect ending.
