Exanimus Virtutis: A Hero’s Goodbye
by LadyTuesday
39 Ratings, 0 Likes, 14 Favorites )"It seemed as if in the end the only things Severus Snape had been able to retain were his life and his dignity, and even those had been stripped from him roughly in his last moments. He hadn’t even been given a glorious champion’s death for his troubles. She’d never get through this if she kept dwelling on that sort of thought, and she refused to leave the poor man as he was. She was going to clean him up, seal up his wounds and take him back to Hogwarts; back to his home. After all he’d done, he deserved that much. They owed him that much."
