Only shadows ahead, barely clearing the roof, get to know the feeling of liberation and release

For olivia_lupin and willysunny, who won't rest until this becomes an actual fic (go them!). Which means they're gonna have to beta, d00ds.





10 December, 2000

The sun hung low in the sky as the rider approached the cottage. He had been riding for several days, avoiding populated areas, keeping to forest paths and abandoned roadways to avoid being seen. All the resources he normally would have used to quicken his pace or hide himself were out of the question, now. The spells and potions that came so easily to him would surely be detected. He wrapped his cloak tighter around himself, his measured breaths pushing cold frost into the colder air.

Severus Snape could not afford to be noticed. He kept on.

Ooohhhhhh...you posted it for us!

It's SEV. *adores*

THANK YOU. Thank you SO much. :) And of course I'll beta.

*grin* It means I get to read it first.

And yes, I'm replying to my own comment, but your LAYOUT!!!

Gorgeous. *sighs softly*

You like it? I think it's Inspiring me. I wanted a writing theme. *g* The background is the first page of the first draft of Neverwhere. *loves*

I can hear him now: "Don't call me Sev."

Severus is going to be a BIG part of this fic, which is something I didn't know until I told you on Sunday.

I think this could end up being larger than I thought. I don't know if it could stay a one-shot at this point. A lot of it will be gen, too, I think, although it's H/D in category. Gen makes my patchfire happy, as well, and a happy pregnant Slytherin is never a bad thing. *g*

I've already got more written. Right now it's writing itself, but. I'm sure I'm going to have to Stop and Plot some.

Mmm... go on! Is this the same bunny you mentioned at the meetup back in November? Because I really want you to write that one, too. *bounces*
