Runes? What Runes?

Written for Edolin for the 2014 SSHG LJ Giftfic fest. Severus finds himself awakening after the final battle alive, healthy and with a new runeline tattoo binding his soul to someone else's. Clearly this is how his life was preserved, but no one is claiming the deed. Edolin had several lovely 'wants' so I melded several of them into one story.
