((Yes this thread is all of London, amazing it fits all up in here!))
Severus departed the boat at a quarter past six in the morning. He had slept very little on the voyage.
Come to think of it, he did very little other than sit and write. He was quite hungry, but could not find a reason to eat, he knew that he would be in trouble if he did not eat.
As he walked toward a carriage and old woman stopped him "Son you loike death."
Severus turned to her with a cold expression "Maybe I am" and got in to the carriage on his way to his hotel.
The ride was short, he didn't know why he didn't just walk or fly. It didn't matter now, he paid the cabbie and walked in to the hotel. He paid for his room, the clerk giving him the same expression as the old woman had.
When he entered his room he knew why. Staring in to the mirror he didn't see himself. He saw a reflection of a tired, skeleton barely hanging on to the last threads of life.
He dressed in to his bedclothes and laid down.
Sleeping almost immediately as he hit the pillow.
But not staying asleep.
Not for long at least.

Lily, or whatever it was, stood outside of Severus's room, simply waiting, he would have to leave sometime and there was no way she was going to just burst in there screaming Oh my god you're totally like here, does yous want'a make teh sexy times wif me?.
So she waited, standing in a position as if she had been walking.
It was starting to hurt.

It was two in the morning and Snape had bolted up from his sleep with a start.
He rubbed the sweat from his brow and sighed deeply.
He was having a terrible dream.
Magda had been shot through the neck by Lilly who simply stood there and laughed, before turning around and killing Lea before killing him.
He rolled his eyes "It ws only a dream" but he couldn't get back to sleep. So he jumped out of bed, threw on his robe and opened his door only to see- "Lily?!"

She turned to him with a start, holding her chest in surprise "Oh my god, Severus, wha-what are you doing here?"

Not following you.
"Business" he pulled his robe tighter around him and stared at her "it is good to see you."

"A-A-And to you as well" she stuttered "what luck we'd find ourselves in the same run down hotel, ah, hehe."

"Indeed, what luck" he tried to smile, but being as though he just vivdly watched the woman before him kill everything he loved, he really just couldn't.
"Have you, found any of your family?"

"Ah, yes" she smiled "luckily they believed me, but like you said, they were of no help. It was nice to see my great great great great great grandmother though, I mean other than from p-pictures."

Suddenly a very angry man burst from the bedroom next to Snapes "Will ye shut yer traps, a man trying ta sleep in 'ere" and returned to his room, slamming the door behind him.
"I, would you like to come in?" He asked quietly.

"Sure" she replied just as quietly and followed him in, closing the door softly behind them.
"You're room is cleaner than mine" she said with a smile "must have anted up the extra ten for maid service eh?"

"Yes, that I did" he went over to his bed and sat, motioning for her to take a seat in the chair next to the bed.

Lily smiled and sat down, holding her hands tightly in front of her, making her look cute although very uncomfortable.
"I-I couldn't afford it, so they gave me what I could afford" she shrugged her shoulders "I don't even have enough to get back to Paris, but, but I imagine now that you are here there are no reasons to go back, well until you go back, but who knows when that will be, oh well you do of course, I-" she looked down embarrassed.
"I was rambling."

This time Snape did smile, it wasn't much and you really had to look closely, but he was smiling.
"No it's all right, I imagine you would be nervous, seeing as-" he raised his eyebrows, as if that explained everything that happened at the peer.

"Oh!" She raised her eyebrows and looked down once again "I-I'm sorry about that, I'm sure you didn't appreciate me trying to disrupt things like that, did you?"
She looked up apologetically, her green eyes sparkling with tears that would or all ready had dropped due to the subject at hand.

"It's fine" he said flatly "I appreciate it actually" he bit in to his cheek discretely, realizing it was still sore from when he and Magda had fought.
"Actually it helped me," he smiled a bit wider for a second "to finally confront Magda. It had been bottled up inside of me for quite some time, I imagine I might have been a bit harsh on her, but I believe it was for the best."
