The Dark Lord’s return shakes Minerva’s world in an unexpected way.
"As It Lasts," by the wonderful and talented queen_of_snapes, is a bittersweet gem of a fic that views the relationship between Minerva and Severus from a late point-of-attack (which I always love). The characters are perfect—carefully and economically drawn—and the story is one of those that makes you go "Yes! It probably happened just like that." It manages to be both angsty (and we all know how much I do love angst) and hopeful at the same time—no mean feat. So thank you, queen_of_snapes! It was the perfect thing to lighten the post-holiday blues.
