aww, I am laughing and crying and shouting at Severus all at once. Dammit, Snape!
You left me hungry for more, but completly satisfied, if that makes any sense at all. i love your Snape's gentle precision. He is so carefull, in a way that feels wise, loving and crafty all at once. And I worried for him, his frailty, just like Harry. (Still do! Go get him, Harry!)
