Epitaph

"When I die, will you write my epitaph?"

Severus fingered his firewhiskey bottle, eyes hard and lips drawn in a thin, straight line.

"I just want someone to remember me and what I stood for."

He remembered. He would always remember. How could he not? How could anyone not?

"Promise me?"

Promise her? Did she need to ask? He would have promised her the world.

"I trust you won't call me an insufferable know-it-all."

A broken chuckle—sounding almost like a sob—escaped his lips but Severus picked up his wand, pointed it at her gravestone and began to carve.
