I really liked the puzzle box--intriguing bit of magic, and I could visualize from your excellent description how it'd work. It was nice to read a Snarry that was Epilogue compliant, and especially, thanks for this thoughtful, warm and sane Ginny. I always think it's interesting how writers deal with Harry's dawning sexual awareness, and how you did it was so original.
Beautifully written, your Snape and Harry were both IC, and the sex was hawt. Wonderful job, mystery author, Meri's a lucky ducky!
