During her convalescense after the Stunner attack, Minerva enjoys a little light reading, i.e. a scholarly study on Unicorn lore. The tapestries of The Lady and the Unicorn lead to a most interesting hypothesis on love and the five senses. One that Minerva examines with her usual scholarly precision.
I just adore the characterizations here, starting right off the bat with young Mr Pye, with his Slytherin eye on the ball.
Minerva is just perfect, just as I imagine she might be in such a situation, and even though we know what's coming, there's such pleasure in the journey and a wonderful payoff when it finally happens.
The Real Snape's observations about being single--both its realities and the way it's perceived by others--are spot-on.
