Summary: The Fae have done Severus a favor, and he is greatly in their debt. Every three months, on the solstices and equinoxes, he stops by to pay his respects.
Apparently it's so unusual a thing these days, both their initial interaction and his sincere and continued thanks, that the Fae decide to give him another gift, whether he think he wants it or not. (Merlin, he's still paying for the last boon...)
So you can imagine his surprise when he discovers that he's not the only one with something to thank them for... And isn't it pity that they are so willfully obstinate in their gifting? Surely they could have just asked? (He needs a new iron cauldron now that he thinks about it...)
(But he supposes that would have been too much to ask from the Fae after all...)

I love to ‘watch’ people read. Please consider yourselves encouraged to comment. It really doesn’t have to be profound, but I would ask that you keep it positive. No one’s forcing you to read, after all. It’s an amateur work and my only remuneration is in the form of comments, likes and hits. A little love goes a long way. Just sayin’…
And thanks in advance. 😉
