Author's many, many notes: Rowling stated in one of her postscript interviews that McGonagall did not become Headmistress because she retired. This seemed rather odd to me, because, in print canon she established wizards & witches live nearly twice as long as Muggles, and Albus Dumbledore was Headmaster at well over a hundred, and were it not for a terminal Horcrux Curse and his decision to ask a good friend to euthanize him at the most opportune moment, he might well have continued to hold his job.
The other thing she established in print canon is that McGonagall is a black-haired, clearly vital witch, who took several hexes in 5th year and came back as sharp witted and ready to head her boisterous, headstrong house, as ever. Moreover, as regards Snape, there is no body, no portrait, no funeral (when even a murderous monster spider was eulogized in the prior book and a prosthetic eye is given a burial in DH) and no Resurrection Stone appearance. This, when coupled with the fact he is a master spy who is suspicious of everyone and could teach even the not-too dunderheaded to stopper death, means, by my lights, that Rowling's inHerview canon just doesn't fly, so this tale explains what really happened to them both. Thank you,
lysa1, for allowing me to correct
Rowling's hubris this grave bit of illogic.
You mentioned you don't care for non-con or sex without love. I'll be honest and admit this skirts both, but does not commit them. There is contact that is sexual in nature, but not sex. There is medical treatment that necessitates it with a person who is unconscious in order to save their life. It is not glorified and is very much a part of the h/c aspect of the fic. When the sex does occur between our two couples, there is definitely love. I'm sorry if that spoils the fic for anyone, but I really needed to make that clear.
Alas, Severus was not feeling too terribly snarky, but given the circumstances, I'm sure that's understandable, poor hurty Prince. I used cock and cunt, as requested, although I did use medical terminology for the less sexy parts of the fic for reasons which should be obvious. Lastly, and as requested, this story uses book canon, but isn't married to it, particularly the
crapilogue epilogue.
