Why this must be read: I'm a big fan of short stories. The kind where every word is in its place, the kind that is really hard to write just because of that reason.
I have great respect for authors who master the art of showing just a moment of the characters' lives and giving the reader a clear picture of their minds without the benefit of a few hundred pages leading up to it.
There are three HP stories in this category that I love especially, and two of them are Fidelius and Secret-Keeper. Harry is under the Fidelius-charm, and Severus is his Secret-Keeper. Severus is the only one who can touch Harry, Harry is the only one who can take Severus's anger away.
Brilliant writing, awesome stories.
But he wakes over and over in the night just the same, sweaty, teeth clenched and grinding and muscles so tight he can't move to reach for his wand, for light and security. A stiffened corpse, embalmed by the fear and fury in his veins, and he can lie in the dark for hours before he feels the blood flowing again. Eventually it will reach his arms and legs and he will be able to move, he knows this as the rational man he knows himself to be, but each time he opens his eyes to the oppressive dungeon blackness, no matter how many times it happens, no matter for how long it will continue to happen, he stares blindly out into the world, and feels as though the night will never end.
