I have always found Severus and his relations with the staff an underexplored area. Good job and nicely done.
Lovely, as always. You capture the dynamic between Severus and Minerva so well in all your fics! You're definitely my favourite SS/MM fic writer because of it. I'd be interested in seeing Minerva's side of this -- how much of what Snape's telling her does she believe? Can she see through his evasions? Either way, keep up the good work!
