A/N: I want to gift this particular drabble to my dear friend PhoenixPixie who is not only a loyal reader and an incredible beta, but also happens to be one of the most enthusiastic snarry fans I've ever met.  Happy belated birthday, my friend!  I know you'll like this, since you've already claimed it, but now it's official: this thing is definitely yours! :D
Summary: “Hush. Just… look. Please.” The blindfold vanished and Severus stared, speechless, at his reflection.

All That Glitters.

Severus halted obediently on Harry's whispered command:
“Here. You must stand right here.”

“Where is 'here', exactly?”

“The mirror. You'll see your reflection when the blindfold falls.”

“I've seen myself naked before.”

“Not like this. This is how I see you.”

Severus shivered.
“Harry…”

“Hush. Just... look. Please.” The blindfold vanished and Severus stared, speechless, at his reflection.

“You made my scars shine.”

“Mine shine, too.”

“But I'm-Why are mine shinier?”

“They aren't.”

“I don't understand.”

“If one scar made me 'golden', hundreds should make you... glitter.”

“All that glitters isn't gold, Harry.”

“And all that doesn't isn't worthless, Severus.”

Harry is so good for/to Severus.

[pekeleke]

Yes, Harry is definitely good to Severus and I think our dear Sev knows it, or he'd have never let the man not only blindfold him but also get frisky with his many scars. ;D

Thanks, as always, for taking the time to both read and review another work of mine, ada. Your lovely comment meant the world to me. :)

Harry is right, listen to him, Severus.

[pekeleke]

Hopefully he will, myk, and even if he doesn't, I'm sure Harry will keep telling him until he sees sense. :D

Aww :)

I've just subscribed to your dw. I love snarry. I rarely post these days, so it isn't necessary to friend me back.

[pekeleke]

Thanks! I'm thrilled that you enjoyed it. :D

I got the notification of your subscription to my journal and I have friended you back. Even if you rarely post these days, I'd love to read whatever you post when you finally do. :)

I've got a few more comments from you to answer, so I'll 'see' you again in just a sec. :D

You tell him, Harry! And keep saying it until he believes it. *nods*

[pekeleke]

LOL. I'm sure Harry will keep telling him the truth until Severus has no other choice but to accept it. :D

It's lovely to see Severus so cherished by Harry.

Sometimes, I wish we had the ability to truly see ourselves through he eyes of a loved one (or maybe even a stranger). That would be intriguing and very enlightening, too.

Thank you for making Severus shine, dear pekeleke!

[pekeleke]

I, too, wish we had the ability to see ourselves through the eyes of those who love us. I agree with you on the point that it would be both enlightening and intriguing, if a little bit frightening.

I'm thrilled that you enjoyed watching Severus shine, my dear friend. Thanks, as always, for taking the time to both read and review another work of mine. Your beautiful and thoughtful comment left me smiling from ear to ear. <3
