The Day When
Title:The Day When
Words:100, of course.
Characters/Ships: Snape and Neville
House:Ravenclaw
A/N: Whoof. I really, really hope this doesn’t happen in the series.

“One year,” Neville said, “since

(the day I spilled the potion again and sat in detention, cold dungeon under cold eyes, and left—finally—at midnight, and tripped of course right outside the room, and heard Snape say, “I won’t be coming back,” and for one horrible second I was glad about it, and thought, good riddance, and turned and fled back to the dorms, and afterwards he didn’t come back, and he was gone by the time I’d crept into my bed, and I never knew before he went that you could miss a horror)

the day he died.”

Thanks! I love the icon too--it's from arabel and the quote is from Game of the Gods, if you didn't know already! So funny.

Oh, I know. If Snape died, it would be so much worse than when Sirius did. Glad you liked the story!

I know, he and Snape are probably my two favorite characters, which is funny because they hate each other so much. On the other hand, they are both the least attractive people in their house and the ones who get made fun of the most in their year...

Glad you liked the story! *picks you up*

Oh wow - very moving for 100 words. And the line that you could miss a horror just sums it up.

Did enjoy very much, well written and nicely presented. Good job!

Very well done.

Wow, this is so good. The writing is really powerful and I just love Neville in it.
I agree, though, if this happened in the series I might cry.
