Severus was always fair; every favor was returned in kind, every slight remembered and repaid.
*nods* Seems very Snape to me. And it's interesting that he makes the connection between sex and dark magic, both a key part of his development as he hits puberty...
I love the whole "fairness" trope, especially presented as it is in such careful parallel constructions (the quid pro quo of grammar as well as favors/slights /g/). And of course all the control, that order that Severus so clearly appreciates, is itself perfectly balanced by its opposite -- the addictive wildness, the thrill of chaos and lack of control. So well-done.

Oh, Severus. A life that's trained him to think of emotions and relationships like a CPA treats his accounts. Poor woobie.
