Oh good, I'm so happy knowing you enjoyed this story! Eh, no worries; I know how RL can swamp a person sometimes. The main thing is I'm thrilled you like the dialogue focus and the exchanges between Harry and Snape.
Wheee, so so pleased you liked Blaise!
Oh, you know, you're right in that it would be fantastic to explore how Severus would react to physical touch and their sexual relationship now that he doesn't have his sight. It's possible I'll write a short follow-up at some point, but we'll have to see.
