Truth by Thisveryinstant

Summary: Harry's 6th year potions class brews a weak truth serum. Harry gets high. Snape loses it. Mayhem ensues.
Reviewer: Gaycrow
The story starts with Harry attending a sixth year NEWTS Potions Lesson, a lesson he’d been dreading since the first day of semester, when he had seen "Truth Serums: Practical" in the syllabus.
Snape hasn’t been dreading this day at all. On the contrary, he had added Semiveritaserum to the syllabus with one thing in mind - to get Harry to test the serum and to then have Harry alone in a classroom, and finally - finally! - Potter wouldn’t have anyone to hide behind..
As the story unfolds, the bitterness and hatred Harry and Snape share erupt and boil over, almost a cathartic release for both of them - on Severus’s side in particular - a cleansing of the wounds that have been been festering for years.
Potter blew his mind wide open, bathed it in cold, hard brightness, vast and dizzy, relentless and dazzling. There was no place to hide, not from himself, not from Potter. He was being undone, and Potter was the cause and remedy. To touch Potter was to be consumed by sweet waves of dark sensation, to drown out the horrible brightness with simple, overpowering desire.
We see Snape here at his worst, yet the story is so well written it is easy to understand and, at times, sympathise with him.
Both Harry and Snape stay in character right up to the end, where they overcome their animosity and events proceed to their inevitable conclusion.
