Oh, how authentic all this feels! Straight out of canon…this reads like the quiet before the storm, the canonical one, and Severus' having to eventually process his mother's death. It held my attention completely.

Thank you so very much for all your contributions this fest!

[goddess47]

Thank you for all your hard work!

Severus having to return home to cope with his mother's sickness, then her funeral arrangements must have been so hard on him. he had the sense at least in using his skills to brew potions for an income and the potential of a job after school. Lily at least interacted with him although on a formal bases and then the invitation to meet with a friend of Lucius to assist with his advancement - how could. he not resist this offer.

Talk about being in a hard place.... poor Severus he can never win.

Thanks for writing and I really enjoyed reading.

[goddess47]

No, Severus never could win...

Thank you!

This is exactly the sort of quiet determination that I expect of Severus.

The scenes with Lily are nicely understated and all the more painful for that.

Poor Eileen.

[goddess47]

Just watching Lily from a distance would be painful...

Thank you!

Poor Severus, losing his mum and then having to scrimp and work hard all summer to survive. I guess he has the house if he needs it.

[goddess47]

An empty house is somewhat symbolic of Severus' life...

Thank you!

OMG that statement made me tear up a little, but you're so right.
