Oh! That is breathtaking! I think Severus' insecurity and unspoken tenderness shine right through! Very, very well done! Love the multiple layers of the piece. The compass, the hands, the erotic snapshot of tender sex. This piece really speaks.
I wish I was more educated about art to give a more coherent comment from a sound knowledge-base. I love the intense way they are looking at each other, the way the hands are cupping each other's as they hold the compass between them. So many subtle emotions visible in this piece, just like Severus' emotions really would be.
