a birthday in the dark

I hear I'm a bad fangirl if I don't write this.

Unto my most esteemed Severus Snape, wherever you are hiding out (we'll find you yet!), I bid a pleasant and peaceful birthday. I liked you from the moment I saw you, but (though I shame myself to say it in public) it is only over the past six months that my appreciation and admiration have developed into adoration, like so many lovely tones of grey on the paper in a darkroom tray. Those same six months have, on your account, taken me into some strange places and tried to install into my thick head some still-puzzling lessons, but it has been a comfort to be accompanied by legions of the similarly Severely afflicted.

Also, the pr0n has been most enjoyable.

Sincerely,

Esmestrella

P.S. So the mystery ingredient was Sequoia sempervirens? Clever, clever. Not to mention in violation of phytosanitary regulations, I'm sure. Any means, eh?

Sequoia sempervirens...

what did I miss? *is puzzled*

[arcanetrivia]

That's the binomial name for the Coast Redwood. "Sempervirens" means "ever-living".

but what was it an ingredient for? <_< Damn, I feel a little out of the loop.

Whatever fancy thing it was that made him not dead from snake. ;)
