Your lips were nearly frozen. I needed to warm them up before applying the ointment.

And slipping her the tongue? That was necessary too? Yeah, right.

When I thought I might be dying - when I asked Potter to look at me - I don’t know how, but it finally made it possible for me to let go. To consider the debt paid

Important plot point, that. It's not about romantic love at this point in his life, but about a debt. That works very well.

I'm so glad he's finally getting to the point, though the part about threatening her was a little worrying. Very clever of you to find a way to make the cold work for them!

[kribu]

Of course it was necessary. Her mouth needed to be moistened, too! *winks*

I figured he wouldn't just start spilling everything without at least some sort of effort to remind her that he's still someone to reckon with. We don't know how much of it he actually meant though!

I'm glad he's finally getting to the point, too. Took him long enough!

‘I most certainly did not. Your lips were nearly frozen. I needed to warm them up before applying the ointment.’

Yes, yes, just keep telling yourself that, Severus. *g*

Lovely!!

[kribu]

He probably figured it would work better than "Well, yeah, I fancied a snog right now". ;-)

It might be a bit tricky to get to those other parts without freezing completely in the upcoming blizzard! :-D Although of course as an accomplished wizard, who knows... ;-)

[kribu]

Good, it was supposed to come as a surprise! ;-) *is a bit evil*

Thanks! And hmm... I might still need it for myself. We'll see though!

Ah, the tale is progressing.

[kribu]

Indeed - about time, too!
