Summary: In the process of completing a probationary task, Harry discovers he can finally answer questions he never thought would be answered. If he searches for answers, will he lose what he holds dear... or gain everything he's ever coveted?
Author's Notes: I know Ginny was one of your cautions, but you asked for infidelity, so she's in it to the point of moving things along. I hope that's all right. To clarify in case anyone wonders about the spells, they are all capitalized, but when spoken are italicised, as well.

Summary: "We have to consummate the bond to bring it to its fullest magical fruition,' Snape said at Harry's ear. "I promise I will make this as tolerable as possible for both of us."
Artist's Notes: I really struggled with this assignment - how do I portray forced bonding without resulting to just an image of a ceremony? (And what scenario brought them here? Ministry machinations? Pressure by Dumbledore? Or a desire to help Harry against Voldemort via a bond with a strong wizard? My personal favorite!) With a love of tension and transitional moments, I came up with this image. I have to imagine it all ended up okay for both sides (alright, far more than just "okay" because like Rakina, that's how I like the story to go too.) ;-)
