Morte O Merce by ClueGirl (NC-17)
Fandom: HARRY POTTER
Pairing: Sirius Black/Severus Snape
Author on LJ: Just a Baker Street Muse
Author Website: Low-Graphics Version, or The SoulGarden
Why this must be read:
What do dementors leave you with? Storming into a strange scene between Sirius Black and a metamorphmangus impersonating him, Snape is about to find out. No one does gritty better than Sirius and Severus. No matter how much time passes, these two will always be under each other's skin - too alike in all the ways they don't want to think about, too different in so many ways that matter. And putting the two of them together in a room with their battling multiple neuroses is inevitably explosive - in canon for ill, but perhaps their passionate antagonism could shift, just so, to create a different kind of passion entirely. In "Morte O Merce" Sirius finds himself utterly depleted of everything he once loved - leaving Snape a giant specter of intense emotion in his otherwise muted existence. Snape here is a mass of contradictions - brutal and comforting in turns, there's something undeniably attractive to him about Sirius and what Sirius symbolized, but at the same time he can't forget what Sirius did to him, and Snape never but never forgives. Snape has some strange secrets of his own, and perhaps they can help lead each other back to the hope that someday the blank pieces of their souls will return. Until then, they'll get by, by any means necessary. Dark, painful, and twisted with just a glimmering shred of hope.
