I was greatly intrigued by the relationship between Sybill and Severus. I thought you captured the dynamic between them very credibly: Severus with his attitude of 'is this all there is,' Sybill with her quiet despair that there might never be anything more. And the rest of the staff knows everyone's business, of course. They're going to try to meddle, and get the likeliest pair together just out of boredom. I loved the imagery in your scenes, too. Beautifully done, MA.
