Summary: After the Battle of Hogwarts, Harry learns to live on his own and to be his own man before he and Severus find their way to each other.
A/N: Happy 50th birthday accioslash. I've been wanting to write something for Accio for some time, and even after having some long IM conversations about what she likes and doesn't like, I'm not sure I got it right. But, a 50th birthday doesn't happen every day (for Accio or for Severus) and I at least wanted to commemorate the occasion. Remember - you are never too old to find love, or to slide down banisters.
