I am amazed. I love dialog pieces, and the language here is so striking. It's just like listening in at a keyhole.
Favorite lines--“Ah, nothing says ‘I love you, Mudblood’ like a mutilated vegetable.” I laughed out loud :) “Do you remember, Sir?” “Of course. I have nothing to do but remember.” The entire final exchange nearly made me cry.
I am struck by how very much you were able to get into such a small space. This piece reminds me of the things I love about drabbles. Thank you.
Glad you liked it. I wanted to get the contrast between young Severus who still had a bit of hope left in his soul, and the older version. And you asked for Phineas, SS/LE and pumpkins!
I have to agree with the others that the “Ah, nothing says ‘I love you, Mudblood’ like a mutilated vegetable.” is absolutely wonderful...but I actually like the next line even better - I can so hear a young SS saying it!

If Severus carved me a pumpkin, I wouldn't probably care if it literally was carved with the words, "I love you, Mudblood". ;)
