I really like this one, especially the black/white contrasts you use. I've written something similar about Snape getting his first wand as a boy, and I also pair him with an unusual wand that's ancient, and nearly lost to record, so this was familiar in a very welcome way.

I loved it!

Yay! This was just the pick me up I was looking for. Thank you for writing.

that was beautiful :) the descriptions summed up Severus Snape very well :)

This is awesome. There should be more on Severus and his wand, it's likely one of first possessions he ever got new and would be uniquely his. Thank you very much for the entertainment, have a fantastic day.

nice

Amazing how much you can put on 800 words! wonderful!

Wow - excellent fic - enjoyed it immensley!

"Stark... black and white... purity hidden in darkness... strength hidden in fragility... sorrow hidden in calm... not what he appeared" - BRILLIANT! And so poingnant and a fantastic reading of Severus' character.

Awsome job! (And all without the benefit of DH, it seems - well done!)

misundersnape...

I love it...

cant say much more really, i just love it.

I really loved this :)

Really well written and beautiful... :)

" Ollivander stared after him. One to watch, he thought, but possibly from a safe distance. Strength hidden in fragility. Purity hidden in darkness. Sorrow hidden in calm. Not what he appeared. There could be no face values with this one. No compromise. Like the wand. Purity and sacrifice, sheathed in inflexible darkness.

Black and white.

Stark. "

I loved that part. So well written.

Superb!

Methinks that this be a veryveryveryvery(x infinite) good read.

Yah.

Wow. As if my love for Severus Snape could have solidified any more. And I think you're right. He's one big walking mass of contradictions.

i like the characterization of Snape here. well written.

This is wonderful.
