Ch. # Chapter Title Word Count Reviews
1 Vitality and Weakness

In which the reader meets Severus Snape surrounded by the darkness of his dungeon. The Potions Master is maimed, alone (and lonely), contemplating what his life is going to be now that the Dark Lord is vanquished, the final battle won. The only creature keeping Snape company is Pulfer, an aging house elf whose intellectual capacities are, slowly yet steadily, dwindling.

2 In the Shrieking Shack

In which the final Shrieking Shack scene from Deathly Hallows is revisited (and rewritten); a scene in which Severus Snape should have survived, as he does in the present chapter. Among many others, Severus remembers how much Nagini’s teeth hurt, sinking in his neck; he also recalls how unexpectedly much he cared for the faith of fiercely fighting Hermione. The memory bothers him, yet brings him a much desired solace. Why did he care so much?

3 Hermione’s Appointment

Being spell shocked after the final battle of Hogwarts, Hermione finally agrees to a couple of sessions with a healer at the new healing floor at St. Mungo’s. There, with her personal healer Marcel, she relives the extreme and disturbing moments of the battle as well as she recalls some striking memories concerning Professor Snape and his behavior towards the very end of the battle.

4 Those Old Parchments

Upon leaving St. Mungo’s, literally fuming, Hermione heads home and searches solace and tranquility in her own past. She takes her old Hogwarts essays into her lap and reminisces over her student years with them. But what is it that she discovers in her memories? Why do her memories constantly turn to her former Potions Professor; and what is he doing now, anyway? Isn’t he looking for peace in his old students’ essays himself?

“The lessons that were offered helped me enormously. Suddenly it was easier to write scenes, imagine them and bring suspension and romance in it. I loved it! ​It helped me in a way other bloggers couldn’t and still can’t.” - Student
