Oh, that is so perfect! Just the right combination of wistful longing and loneliness and sweetness, and the promise of comfort to come. And I do love those gargoyles, as well, watching over everything.

This is just exactly what I needed.

And perhaps you could call it simply "Fall," for the season you portray so poignantly and for the suggestion of movement from up there in that lonely place to being caught by one who understands who you are.

Thank you for a lovely gift!

So glad you liked!! I wibbled a bit before posting--and I combined the prompts just because it worked out that way, lol! ~pets gargoyles~ I like them too.

"Fall" works beautifully! Thank you! I always have the most difficult time coming up with titles!

Aw! This had me tearing up... but in a good way! I don't much care for the idea of growing old. But growing old with Severus... he would make it quite bearable. Even without the voice.

Oh, everything is made infinitely better with Severus!

Thanks, mimi. Growing old to me is so distant, like it will never really happen to me. Something universal, though.

Thanks!!!

Perfect. Along with EW's choice of title.

So perfect, and this is quintessential Kizzy, you at your best.

I marvel at your talent.

Yes, that title is perfect. And so simple! I seriously spent an hour trying to come up with something that would work.

Thank you, lulabelle. I just... I don't know what to say! Such lovely words. Thank you so much!

I'm so tired right now, just beyond belief, Kizzy, or trust me, I'd be ravishing you with my words, LOL! I love this so, so much.

Oh, sweetie, poor tired Lula! Believe me, I treasure all of your words. *grins*

Glad you liked it! That makes me very happy!

So beautiful in its imagery of the most vibrant season. Yet your words, Kizzy, capture the sadness that sometimes comes with growing older. Severus is lucky to have a spunky, younger wife to provide a swift kick in the arse to get him out of his melancholy, self-pity party. Great ending, too.

Thank you so much, clairvoyant! The most vibrant season--yes it is, and capturing it in words is fleeting. If that makes any sense!! He is lucky to have her, isn't he? They provide the perfect balance, I think, for a proper happily ever after. Even if Sev is still prone to his darker thoughts. Thank you!
