This story is unlike many depicting Snape. Usually, people try to focus on Snape himself when telling "their" story. Here, the author decided on Lucius who has fallen in love with a younger, not pleasant-looking half-blood boy. Snape. Lucius' perspective is rather painful as his feelings seem unrequited. I love it. His love is deep and not fixed on looks. He's positively smitten with Snape, though he needs some time to realize just that. The end wasn't what I quite expected but fine. It suited the story. I would have preferred to see some more Snape-child interactions but it's alright. It's one of those: not like you wanted it to happen, but still it turned out alright - stories.
