Faith

~

Severus watched Voldemort send Harry's body flying.

It’s been for naught. We are defeated.

Turning away, he limped back to the Shrieking Shack to remove all traces of his presence. No one would find him.

Sod Dumbledore for making him care, and Harry for giving him hope.

After cleaning the place thoroughly, he exited the shack, exhausted to the point of stumbling.

When he was caught by strong arms, he looked up into a hallucination's face.

“Potter?”

Harry smiled. “Didn't Dumbledore teach you faith?”

Severus would never get used to these Gryffindors, but he would give it a good try.

Oooh. So much love. One of those that feels like just the beginning.

JK only thought the story was over. ;)
Thanks, doll!

Awww. :)

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Thanks! :)

[animehime.insanejournal.com]

Aw. Poor Severus, thinking his hope was all for naught. At least now Harry has time to teach him about faith. May take a while. ;)

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

*giggles*
Yes, I suspect that lesson will take much repeating. ;)
Thanks, hon!

[witchdragon.insanejournal.com]

Very sweet.

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Thanks, my dear!

[slashpine.insanejournal.com]

Oh yes! Poor Severus is so pessimistic - not like his life hasn't driven that point home. Yet still, he'd clean up diligently, wouldn't he?

Harry's strong arms and confident smile are the perfect match for him!

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

True. He certainly hasn't had the best life thus far, but all that's about to change. :)
Thank so much!

[svartalfur.insanejournal.com]

Oh. That's lovely. :D

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Awww, thanks, hon! :)

He can safely says that they will always surprise him.

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Indeed. That's one constant in the world.
Thanks!

[aura_wolf.insanejournal.com]

MUCH love!

Thanks, hon!
And I adore that icon. ;)

[the_minx_17.insanejournal.com]

Very cute!

Heee! Thanks, sweetie! *cuddles*

[cblue9.insanejournal.com]

*Happy sigh*
I'm thinking about where the "good try" is going.
Wonderfull!

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

*giggles*
Oh, it's going exactly where you think it's going. ;)
Thanks, hon!

*makes chicken soup and cuddles*

you home yet?

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

*sigh*
No. And of course things are running late at the office. *criez*

[zephyr_macabee.insanejournal.com]

Squee, happy ending!

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Heh, absolutely. If anyone deserves it, it's Severus. *kicks book*
Thank you! :)

[torino10154.insanejournal.com]

Very nice. Good thing Harry is there to take care of Severus. ;)

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Oh yeah. It was about time, I think. :)
Thank you, hon!

[jaddziadax.insanejournal.com]

awwww

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

*bg*
Thanks, hon!

[akuma_river.insanejournal.com]

It sort of explains things don't it?

All along Snape thought Harry was going to die, why wouldn't he take off?

I liked it.

[ensnarryed.insanejournal.com]

HA! Now THAT'S the kind of DH ending I can live with!

I like you random word! ;)

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Yay! Thanks, my dear. :)

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Thank you!
Ans yes, I think it's a reasonable explanation. Much better than dying from a snake bite. *eyeroll*

[akuma_river.insanejournal.com]

You know. I just realized something.

Did Jo ever explicitly say that Snape was dead? Couldn't someone ask her if Snape was really dead? Do you think she'll answer yes or no, since the majority of us don't believe he's really dead?

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Would we really care what her answer was, though?
If she said he was dead I wouldn't change what I write, and if she said he was alive I still wouldn't change either. *shrug*
Plus, JK tends to get into trouble where Snape is concerned. *eyeroll*

[ivylady.insanejournal.com]

Faith is a good thing, especially when it comes to Harry and Severus.

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

So very true!
Thanks, my dear. :)

[angela_snape.insanejournal.com]

Severus would never get used to these Gryffindors, but he would give it a good try.

Yay!

Thanks, my dear!
