Rating/Warnings/Kinks: NC-17; Highlight if you wish to know: * *mild bondage, whipping, There is a 213 word scene in this 48,000 word story that describes a non-Snarry aborted one-off. As it has offended someone, I'm adding this warning.**

Author Notes/Disclaimers/Betas A/N: The village of Lochdubh and its inhabitants in this story are the property of BBC Scotland (from the series Hamish Macbeth). All things Harry Potter belong to J.K. Rowling et al.
The snarry_games have the best Mods in fandom—they've worked so hard for years to give all of us such a supportive environment in which to play—thank you! Also, my heartfelt appreciation to jadzialove for the excellent beta reading, to whitecotton for help with Scottish-izing my Scottish, and to sestra_prior for her assistance with British questions. Team Snitch, thanks for your input, your team spirit, and your love of Snarry. It's been a privilege and honor to cavort with you all and wield my big stick. Lastly, I'd be remiss if I didn't express my appreciation to Rudyard Kipling for his masterpiece, Captains Courageous.

Summary: Belonging and deserving, needing and wanting—desires of the human heart that Severus and Harry must face when they're forced to the little village of Lochdubh to settle a very late codicil of Albus Dumbledore's will.

Oh my, you've made me turn a very blushy red! What kind words!

Just generally, the challenge of Snarry for me has always been: how do they find a common ground, and then, to make anything built on that commonality believable. In this story, I've worked on the premise that there was initially respect, just after the war, and although there was an 'incident', the foundation remained. So I'm very gratified by your comment that I've achieved that.

Heeee, you'll love Hamish Macbeth! I laughed 'til my ribs hurt, but it's also very poignant in places as well. And you know how I feel about the book. I read it when I was much younger, and it made a lasting impression on me, as it did on Harry.

You're right; it's all about human companionship--enjoy your dinner, I hope.

Thanks so much for looking for my story and reading it, and for such thoughtful comments. They mean more than you know. ♥
