This has really indeed touched me. I never would have thought that when I will finish reading this I will start crying. 5 stars (clapps)

Painful,darkly erotic. Though I I understand Loony's reasoning behind Severus being submissive I must say that I disagree to a  point. Though Severus is tightly controled I do not see him in control(of his life). How can he be? When his 2 masters are constantly pulling him in opposite directions. I DO see him giving up control of his own body for the release he needs to"feel".  On the other hand he IS rigidly in control of himself and his students in the classroom. I see him as an alpa male and thus needing to dominate those around him. I can see him as a dominant in a relationship.  So to me I see him as adominant whith switch tendencies depending on who,when and where he is in life This story is very sad, and what a sad ending for a sad man.

Very good, very sad.  I like the idea of Severus being the more submissive one.  It seems more likely that the pressures of staying in control all the time *would* make loss of control with someone trusted a huge release.  And vice versa, that Remus's lack of control in his life (finaces, physical health, etc.) would make him want to be in control *somewhere*.I like too how Remus is never mentioned by name until the very very end.  It gives it a lot more power.  :)

Excellent story, and sad as usual that Snape suffers so.

So sad.  But love can be worth dying for.

WOW, I have no words.  This has left me breathless.  Did not expect the ending but I am glad he died with love in his heart. From lust to  torture to awesome sex.  The need to feel alive can bring out the worst or the best in everyone.  I am glad you chose Remus for Severus. 

Intense, almost creepy in his need to find pain to forget, and so sad.  But brilliant, as always. :)

This is brutal, but very, very good. To find love and pay the ultimate sacrifice for that love is tragic.
