    Summary

    “Then I’d say there is nothing else I’d want to do and nowhere else I’d want to be, and you would think I’m a freak.” — Severus kneeling in front of Hermione.

    They have met over sixty times in the past five years, each enjoying their intellectual meetings more than the other. This evening, Hermione learns that Severus has never played the game of Truth or Dare before. And that’s not the only thing she didn’t know about her former professor.
