Lovely - you can feel the deep caring between Harry and Severus. Their reconciliation is all the better and more poignant for its understatement. In this story, burnt-down candles and a side-of-the-mouth kiss are more romantic than champagne, roses, and long declarations of love. Nowhere in this story does anyone even say "I love you"... but the words aren't needed, and the story's all the better for it.
