Summary
Time to think differently of Snape and Hermione. What if they were like Charlie Manson and Squeaky Fromme, his Witch-In-Chief, and the war was a very good excuse for two outcasts to bring Helter Skelter down on the heads of a society that heaped scorn upon their brilliance? What if he became another Robespierre and Hermione his instrument, to bring a Reign of Terror down on the Death Eaters? What if there is nothing better than to have your enemies driven before you in chains, and to hear the lamentations of their women? What if theirs was a love born of a dark and magnificent obsession, between two practitioners of that Old Time Religion, the kind of magick that could strike fear into the dark heart of Voldemort, himself? What happens, in the dark, when you Play With Fire?

Summary
This chapter. O Best Beloved is about beginnings and endings. About what came before the flames, and what was left after they burnt away. In this story chapter, we meet a Dark Man, a Man In Black, a man with a past called Severus Snape. A man with great and secret power who stands in the shadows, biding his time. And we meet a boy, with great courage and great promise, but who is never as saintly as that sounds. This is the story of how a war that never ended began again, and what happened when it finally ended. A tale of secret magic and forbidden rites amid an era of sex, drugs, war and a lot of the good old ultraviolence. Or is it a tale of an orphan who grew up unwanted and neglected, adopted by a reformed villain, who may or may not be the boy's true father, and loved the boy's mother, above all things. It could be the story of a driven man, who drove his son, by blood or no, into the same fate as she was driven in his boyhood, only to see his son grow up to be too much like both his fathers? Or maybe it is a story of a man and his son and the woman they both loved, even if she hated the thought of such a word? In the sparks and the cinders, it is all of those things, and more.
