Severus has never had a problem 'keeping busy'. At home three years out from the war, there are still shadow councils chasing down the last remnants of the Dark Lord's supporters, and he is often on hand. He practices magic with Albus, he spends weekends visiting awful gravesites and old houses looking for clues into curses still plaguing them all. To say nothing of actually teaching - restructuring Slytherin house from the lazy mess Slughorn left of everything, classes, marking, detention, tutoring, coworker politics. He remains published in a variety of fields as well, unwilling to let his academic career fizzle out into an 'almost' because he was netted early by Hogwarts.
It's close to the surface these days. Seeing the phantom of Headmaster Dumbledore, standing in his office. Albus seemed so uneven and Severus feels a strange emptiness about it. As though he wanted to be tempted and is disappointed that he couldn't manage it.
Keeping busy. It's the name of the game. Rounding up loose ends from recon, running Xenogen, holding down his clients therein, organizing plants and seeds, assisting medical, hunting down people he knows need help with magic, spending more time potion-making. Anything to keep him from dwelling on Shepard, or Charles, or Lily. He works in the science labs and in the medbay, he carries on his research in the gardens; a few times a day he cooks meals and is usually fine with sharing if someone infringes on his time. He organizes. He manages. He refuses to acknowledge virtually everyone else from his world. Time ticks on.
Maybe he should take up a hobby. (Maybe it should be something besides learning how to shoot things.)
