There was something that was scribbled across her face, but Severus couldn’t seem to figure it out. Why had she looked away? It didn’t seem like the usual disdain he would see on those around him. It was almost endearing, that look. Definitely something was wrong, it had been growing during her time here. At first it was that he was sure she wanted to get on his good side – perhaps manipulate him into giving her better grades, which, if her goal she failed. It had been a long time since he had seen something genuine on another’s face when regarding something positive and him. [break][break] Obviously, she had to have brain damage or something like that. How else could she actually enjoy his presence? [break][break] “One of the many annoying traits Gryffindors have, yes. Unlike your peers, however, you seem to be using it in a good way.” Worry about yourself first, then worry about others. Her brother didn’t understand that, and he had a feeling she didn’t really either. But at least she was thinking of herself right now. That was what was important. [break][break] And there was the blush again that showed up on his face, the pink accenting his normally pallid face. She was hugging him again, though this one was shorter. He was actually quite confused when he almost missed the contact when she pulled back. He wasn’t used to people actually touching him in a positive way. His father had beat him, the ‘Marauders’ liked to bully him, and the Death Eaters were, well, Death Eaters. [break][break] There it was again. Uncle Sev. She was lucky they were alone, else he would have scolded her for it… again. However, he allowed it, just this once. There was something that bothered him about the ‘Uncle’ bit, but he was very unsure of what it could be. Normally, he understood his emotions, and was able to control them completely, but he didn’t quite understand the bitter taste in his mouth when he thought of her thinking of him as her ‘uncle’. [break][break] He would miss her too. Not that he would admit that. [break][break] Considering for a moment, his face still slightly pink, he looked up to her eyes. “Under a few conditions.” He gave her a slight nod. “First, you will never call me ‘Uncle Sev’ in front of anyone. Second, you will arrive here in this classroom each Saturday morning to be taught how to brew it. Third, you won’t give up.”

"I just surprise you and the best of ways, don't I, Professor?"
She gave a wry smile, tilting her head. "No worries, Professor; I'm the master of pretending that people don't mean as much as they do to me. Lupin speciality."
She nodded, grinning, "Saturday mornings."
She looked at him for a long moment. "When have I been known to give up, Professor? Yes, I may grouse about the world and its misgivings towards my kind. But giving up?"
She smiled confidently. "This is not the Gryffindor way. Definitely not my way. Also, if I had given up in any sense, I would not be here, sharing sentiments with the rough-edged Potions Master, now would I?
I would be like every other student in this school, content to complain about the Professor who seems to hate everyone except his Slytherins - which I'm sure, you hold quite a bit of disdain for as well."
She giggled, blue eyes shining in mirth. "I am the one that got under your skin, Professor. The light in your world of darkness. Come to show you that yes, the world and a lot of people suck, but there are still some that are good. Even if I share the surname of one of the ones that caused you a fair bit of grief.
So no, no giving up for me. Not when I have Professor Snape to continue to impress. Now, and even outside of Hogwarts."
She gave a wink.

She really did surprise him. Almost always in good ways. Of course, he had found himself annoyed with her occasionally, but that was how it was with anyone – even Lily whom he cared very much about. However, he had grown to accept those annoying parts as a part of her, and it was almost endearing – almost. Not that he would admit that. [break][break] There was something in the way she said ‘Professor’ that made his half-smile quirk up a little bit, before going back down to the half-smile. It wasn’t often his smile turned into anything more than a half-smile. Perhaps he was sick. Regardless he let out a low chuckle and shook his head. [break][break] “I would hope that you are better at it than your brother. He sent me a patronus the other day about a girl he had met. He was sure I would know who it was, but alas, I did not teach a student like he described. You should have heard him.” There was the Severus he enjoyed – the one that liked to tease and bully the Marauders for how they treated him in school. Now he was able to embarrass him in front of his sister and he didn’t even know it yet. He changed the pitch of his voice just slightly to imitate her brother. “Really Severus, you should’ve been there. She’s so beautiful. She said she was a Hufflepuff, but I don’t remember any ‘Luna’ on my roll, so she had to graduate. Did you know anyone like that? She’s got the most beautiful brown hair and an attitude that could rival Rose. You could easily get lost in her eyes…” [break][break] He looked at her, his voice returning to normal. “It doesn’t take a curse breaker to figure out who tricked him.” [break][break] “Now, I wouldn’t go that far, Ms. Lupin.” He stressed her last name, not in a malicious way like he may have sometimes done with her brother, but more in a lingering way. As if he were caressing her name with his voice. Now that was a weird visual if there was ever one. [break][break] “I may enjoy our time together, on occasion, but I wouldn’t say you were a ‘light in a world of darkness’.” After all, Lily was still a light to him. And while Rose had flickered into his world, starting off weak, it was starting to indeed lighten up the world a little bit. “Unfortunately, you are not unique in the regards of me ‘enjoying’ your company on occasion.” Then again, the other one hated him and he was doing what he could to try to make it up to her. [break][break] However, when she winked at him, his face flushed – instead of a slight tinge, his face was a full-blown red in color, though his voice did not betray him. “Now that we have our agreement, I’ll prepare our lessons.”

Rose ticked an eyebrow. Thinking about it for a moment, only a moment before breaking into laughter. "No. No way."
She had to lean on one of the desks behind her she was laughing so hard. "You've got to be kidding me."
her face was flushed from her laughter, eyes shining with the moisture from her mirth and she was biting down on her thumb to get herself back into control. She didn't mean to laugh at her brother, but he was a bit of a dunce when it came to girls (and honestly, once, she would've pegged him for being in love with Sirius - or James - or both; but she dared not ask about it. Remus was a private person. Sister or not.) but this, this was too good.
"I knew Tonks was a bit... adventurous, but this is icing on the cake. Thank you for telling me. I'm going to have fun with this."
Her eyes shone with mischief and she giggled again.
However, she was taken slightly off-kilter with the way he said her name. She fought back the blush that threatened her face, turning her face away from him, however still looking at him. It was a good thing her face was still flushed from her laughing fit.
She clicked her tongue, "oh, forgive me that I misinterpreted my position in your life, Sev."
Oh, she had dropped the Uncle part there. She watched him, to gauge his reaction to that, sighing lightly. She had the unfortunate knowledge of knowing exactly why she wouldn't take that spot. And that why resided in an office here in this castle. She had to admit that she had worried what sort of effect that had on him. Man, was she crazy? Worrying about the condition of a man's heart that she really shouldn't be? She swallowed thickly. If only she had red hair and green eyes.
Stop it. Don't even go down that road.
"I assume it'll be right after breakfast, then?"
She had the sudden urge to make them lunches.
What a girly thing to do.

Snape looked amused especially given her reaction. Remus Lupin was a private person, but apparently his want to know more about this girl had trumped that – plus, who would be better to ask about a girl than someone who hated him, and he had no fear of losing? Either way, Severus had found it very amusing and was not going to let him live this one down. Of course, his sister teasing him for it – well that was an extra bit of torture Severus was taking pleasure in. He wanted to see him squirm. [break][break] “Apparently, they have a ‘date’ at some point. A professor and one of his students. I’m sure if Dumbledore found out… well, it would be a shame to lose another Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.” It was no secret he wanted that job, though it wasn’t like he sabotaged them very often – he just didn’t like Remus, especially since he got his dream job instead of him. He might understand why Dumbledore refused to give him the job, but that didn’t mean he couldn’t be bitter about it. [break][break] He noticed the blush, though he figured it didn’t have any particular reason behind it – after all, he was her professor, and a bane of her brother’s existence (okay that was putting it a little harshly). He wasn’t a kind person. He was cruel and vindictive, but she seemed to pull his better parts out when he was around her – not that he still didn’t take every chance he had to insult people he didn’t like. [break][break] He stared at her for a few moments when she called him Sev, a bittersweet look on his face. He almost looked sad when she called him that – the uncle no longer there, making more personal than before. For a moment he almost looked vulnerable before the cold exterior quickly covered it. There was just something about the way she spoke, and the look in her eyes that made him… feel welcomed. Loved. Quickly pushing back those inappropriate feelings for him to feel towards anyone, let alone a student, he gave her a small nod. [break][break] “They should take a few hours, so if you wish to eat something for lunch, I suggest you bring it with you.”

She was still smirking as Snape continued on and she shook her head. She would have to talk to Tonks about this... development. At least get her in on the joke before she started on her brother. Oh, she had waited for this day a long time. Her brother had a love interest.
That was the Sirius part of her shining, as she rubbed her eyes of the mirth and sighed, laughing lightly.
"Well, my year just got increasingly more interesting."
She smirked, "not that, whatever shenanigans we could get up to on Saturdays wouldn't be interesting, that is."
she nodded, her mind already in overdrive of what she could bring.
She stopped herself, why was she thinking so seriously? Augh! She had done so well over the years. Hormones were not a thing! Chill, Lupin, chill!
She smiled at Snape regardless, "I shall do just that."

He raised an eyebrow looking to her. If it were anyone else, he would have scolded her and said there would be absolutely no shenanigans happening during the extra lessons and if they expected it, then they shouldn’t even bother to show up. However, he knew that she knew that, and therefore he decided he would play along for at least right now. [break][break] “I’m sure our time together will be enlightening and entertaining, provided slaving over a cauldron for hours attempting to mix the aconite in so it doesn’t poison the drinker is entertaining to you.” Was that a slight sparkle in his eyes? Or was it a trick of the dim light in the dungeons here? Either way, it was gone as fast as it had come. [break][break] Swallowing and looking away quickly back to his note, he cleared his throat. “Is that all you need of me?”

An impish, mischevious smile formed on her lips and she adjusted her book bag on her shoulder, potions bottles tinkling against each other. That sparkling feeling was back that she wasn't quite sure what it meant, but she was registering it with when she was feeling one of two ways. Flirtatious, or about to prank someone.
However, that twinkle in his eye trick of the light in his eyes, had her leaning up against his desk, looking coy. "Anything involving you is going to be entertaining, Sev."
There that was again. She pulled away from the desk, flipping her hair over her shoulder. Considering his question, "Never, but I will be going now."
She smirked. "And do try not to kill Potter with those lessons plans," she giggled. "I'll see you on Saturday!"
And with a swish of hair, she left the Potions classroom.

His eyes widened when she leaned against his desk. What was she thinking? Was he going insane? Likely yes. Was she going insane? Had he brewed the potion to where it would cause insanity? What was going on? There was a slight tinge of panic that showed on his face mixed with surprise. What was her game? What was she going for? And why was he finding this… intoxicating? [break][break] He needed a firewhiskey. [break][break] Was he trying to seduce him? For once in his life he was lost for words, and just watched as she started leaving the room. As soon as she was gone, he sighed and covered his face. What was wrong with him?
