Beautiful.

Oh, how this makes my heart break. What a touching tribute.

"It might have been the last heartfelt gesture in his life" I feel so sad for him thazt this sentence brought tears to my eyes.

Very desperately sad. Well done. It really tugged at my emotions in so many ways.

Gorgeous story. I love imagination within cannon. Well done.

So sad and beautiful.  You well deserved to win.

It might have been the last heartfelt gesture in his life, and for a few glorious moments he was not alone.....  There were only a few steps left on his journey. It was a solitary path.

This is so sad, but I must tell you, you write beautifully.  Well done!

Well done. :)

Oh, so sad, but since Severus left Neville the important information, perhaps it was enough for Neville to think a wee bit better of the Headmaster.  Thanks for sharing!

I agree with zuse. An amazing little piece, quite heart-breaking on an early Saturday morning.

Awesome.
