Today was going to be a fun one. She had already been up since the crack of dawn for Quidditch practice (she wasn't even on the team, but for some reason, she had the bright idea to tell Wood to let her know when he was holding practice, for exercise). She supposed she could've waved off Katie and Angelina when they came to retrieve her, but for some reason, they would drag her out of bed anyway. Now she sat at breakfast, freshly showered but her hair was still dishevelled.
She had left it like that, liking the look it was giving her. Windblown was pretty much the accurate description. Normally on Saturdays, she would get up, and put on something ... not as casual as she was wearing now. Today, for some reason, she had opted for a pair of the Gryffindor jogging shorts (that may or may not be long enough, but who was really looking?) that she found in Madam Malkins. a loose, basic white shirt and her trainers. Completely dressed down. Her hair pulled out of her face and into a messy bun.
She wondered vaguely how such a dressed down look would affect Sev. Normally she was put together, skirts or dresses, or her robes. But today. After Quidditch practice? Plus Wood and worked her down to the bone this morning. (Again, she wasn't even on the team?)
She had just wanted to be comfortable.
A girl can't wear heels all the time, right?
There was movement next to her and a shock of pink, Rose turned to grin at Tonks, who gave her a look over, brow raising. "Don't you have tutoring this morning?"
Rose smirked, nodding, "of course. But after the stunt with the Duelling Club, we've had to make adjustments, obviously."
Tonks hummed, looking her over again, "don't you think it's... too casual?"
Rose stared at Tonks giggling. "My brother put you up to this, didn't he?"
She turned her head, looking at the said person at the professor's table. He looked as if he were having a conversation with Hagrid at the moment. She turned back to Tonks. "I bet he has you bugged too!"
Tonks shook her head, rolling her eyes. "No, Remus didn't put me up to this, but those shorts are rather... short."
Rose snorted, with a roll of her eyes, "it's September, it's still hot. I just came from Quidditch practice with Wood, give me a break!"
Tonks shook her head, "just be careful. If anyone else catches wind of what exactly is going on, it'll be bad news."
Rose grinned, "speak for yourself."
Tonks gave a pretty blush.
Chortling, Rose stood, ignoring the stares she got (ok, the shorts were maybe too short, but she didn't have time to change now did she? She supposed she could transfigure them longer, but, que sera sera), and pressed a kiss to Tonks' forehead.
"I have to go to my tutoring now, Tonks, don't get into too much trouble."
She gave the pink-haired and pink-faced girl a wink, before disappearing out of the Great Hall.
She had taken the warning this time, to let the House-elves know ahead of time. And when she got there, she was pleasantly surprised by the basket of goodies given to her - also a much heavier basket. If there was one time she wished apparation was allowed in the castle., this would be it.
She thanks the house-elves profusely and set off towards her destination, slipping in and out of the secret passages (there were more down here in the dungeons, she noted. She wondered if that was on purpose... cause the passageways were fast and rather empty looking.
And she swore she thought she saw a piece of snakeskin. Shuddering, she moved on, reaching her destination with ten minutes to spare this time. Early, she noted to herself with a smirk, rose a hand, and knocked.

Severus was still healing, as he was learning that while Defodio wasn’t dark magic, it still took awhile to regrow that which was gouged out – especially when muscle was taken with. Healing things weren’t hard but growing them back was another story. Regardless he had continued his work, not allowing himself to miss even one day after that duel. Many of the students probably noticed that he was limping around and sitting at his desk more than usual, but none of them had the bravery to point it out to his face. He could practically hear them talking behind his back about the duel. He hoped his performance had scared them enough not to act out. And honesty, they seemed to be behaving better than usual.
[break][break]
Severus wasn’t one for dressing down, even on a day like today, so here he was in his usual robes and attire, sitting in his office as he wrote a paper. It was a paper about the properties of Amortentia and how they could be improved. After all, he was a potions master, and while he wasn’t a social person, he did share some things he figured out with a potion making magazine for only those who are serious about potions.
[break][break]
When he heard the knock at the door, he stood up, slightly groaning and made his way over to the door, albeit slowly. He hoped it wasn’t going to be Remus – Rose would be arriving soon, and he just didn’t want to have to deal with that wolf while he was preparing himself for the encounter. Ten minutes. There was no way she would be this early, would she?
[break][break]
However, when he opened the door, he was pleasantly surprised to see Rose’s face behind it, and he gave her a small smile and took her hand to lead her in. At this point, however, he noticed what she was wearing, and his face immediately went red as he quickly closed the door behind her so anyone who might pass by wouldn’t see him blushing at the girl wearing practically no clothing coming to see him alone in his office where one would know there was quarters attached. The rumors would be even worse than anything other situation he could think of at the moment.
[break][break]
“Are you not cold, Rose?” He was favoring his good leg, but he was doing his best not to limp in front of her. He took a seat at his seat behind the desk and patted his lap in indication for her to sit on his lap.

The door opened and she grinned, allowing herself to be led into the room and delighting in his blush.
"Sorry for the attire, Sev! I was up at four am for Quidditch practice, which ran long - as it normally always does. Nearly no time to refresh and have breakfast. Plus I didn't want to be late this time. You know, responsibility and all that."
Stupid Wood. Who made that kid Captain anyway - oh, McGonagall, right. She huffed, placing the basket on a table and rolling her shoulders. Man! That thing was heavy. Had the house elves given her bricks?!
And if she hadn't been ten minutes early, there was more of a chance of her being late. Because going through her attire was a headache. She would have to bring home her trunk over Christmas, do laundry and reevaluate things. Becuase, to be honest, a lot of what she had tossed in there, that wasn't school robes, had been similar to what she was wearing now. Jogging shorts, jogging pants, sweatpants. She really hadn't foreseen - uh - romantic encounters this year. Werewolf, you know? And there was no popping into Hogsmeade. Sure, she could owl order it, but ugh. Shipping Prices. Not to mention she wasn't fond of owl feathers being everywhere.
"And I know, oh my god! Girl in normal clothing! It's like we wear uniforms every day or summat."
She shook her head with a laugh, "I just wasn't feeling dresses and heels today; nor was I going to opt for my uniform."
Her grin turned coy, "It's not like my attire makes me look less attractive, does it?" she gives a wink. "However, I think I may have just caught onto what Tonks was hinting at before I left breakfast this morning. I wasn't seen coming down here. Sister of a Marauder, you know."
Giving him a wink, she busied herself with pulling her hair down, running her fingers through it, gathering the still slightly damp locks again and putting it back up in that messy bun. The action had her shirt rising slightly, exposing her mid-drift.
"Cold?"
She tilted her head. "No. Never in your presence."
A wink.
She looked down at herself, "though, if it's too much, I can transfigure it into something else."
Though, the way she said this, hinted that if he had agreed, she would probably change it to be worse than it already was, given the impish grin on her face.
She giggled, finding herself fitting nicely into his lap and tossed her legs over the armrest, leaning in for a short kiss.
"Morning," she said with a grin. "How's the healing going? Do you need anything for it?"
Stop it, Rose, before you get too smothering!

Severus would have spied on Quidditch practices since he knew she sometimes went to them – but being the head of slytherin they thought he was a spy and had been banned from watching the practices the instant he became a professor to begin with – after all he could pass information of their tactics to his team… Of course, he understood it, but he still would have liked to be able to watch Rose out there.
[break][break]
“Four AM?” He chuckled and shook his head, “You won’t be too tired for our lesson, will you? You know I take no excuses when it comes to our work together.” He gives her a slight serious look and then kisses her cheek lightly.
[break][break]
Severus stared for a moment and placed a hand on one of her bare legs, tracing over with little patterns on her bare skin. “Less attractive? Impossible. If anything, you’re… even more tantalizing than usual.”
[break][break]
“And what, pray tell, was Miss Tonks hinting at this morning?” Severus leaned in, wrapping his arms around her middle when she reached up so his clothed arms were around her bare stomach. He leaned in to her ear and grinned as he whispered to her. “Maybe just… a little transfiguration.” He gave her a wink.
[break][break]
“Morning,” He was smiling, and his face just slightly red after the kiss and he leaned into her as she sat in his lap, “It’s going just fine. I have had Madam Pomfrey keep an eye on it – apparently, despite… taxing myself too much, it’s healing just fine. She thinks a little bit of walking around for class is too much, but I won’t give up my classes.”

"Tired? Heavens no. I've still got all the adrenaline from flying at breakneck speeds, several hundred feet in the air, avoiding quaffles from a pair of idiot twins. You know, typical Quidditch practice. I'm a mean chaser." she gave him a wink, eyebrows waggling. "Plus this four am was different from the last four am. This four am was planned for. Sleeping Draught for the night before, pepper up for later."
She giggled.
"One of these days you'll see me fly. Wood continually grouses that I won't join the team officially, but I've got better things to do with my Saturdays; except for the occasional practice. If only for running laps around the Quidditch pitch. And the social aspect of it.
I've never been much for the game itself though. But I needed a way to practice my flying - someone must tell Hooch that one year is not nearly enough."
She grinned at him, shivering pleasantly at his touch on her leg a half grin on her face. "See, I knew I didn't have to worry about you, thinking you only liked me in skirts and heels."
Her grin turned sultry, "well, she was insinuating that this might be a tad too casual. Especially where I was coming this morning. But luckily, this manner of dress for me isn't all that out of the ordinary for me. Especially on a Quidditch practice day. And I'm the master of moving around the castle undetected. Pretty sure she was worried I'd get caught coming down here. Given my slightly provocative and my audience."
She leaned into him as he wrapped his arms around her and a bubble of laughter escaped her as his asking her to transfigure her clothing. "ANd whose acting like the dog now?"
She burst into giggles again.
She had to admit, she loved the way she could make him blush. It was part of their balancing of equalities. While she rose to meet him intellectually, she felt that he always met her on an emotional level; eleven years really wasn't much of an age gap, really. There had been larger (her parents included, which is why age had never been a factor in any sense when she came to debate about what kind of partner she wanted). I mean, being a werewolf - you can't be too picky; but in the same hand, you have to be extremely picky. Can't just have anyone.
Severus Snape made this extremely easy.
Her eyes sparkled as she spoke, resting her head on his shoulder, completely content on where she was at. She pressed a kiss to his jaw. "Well, I will be your nurse for today, so if you need anything just let me know."
She gave a flirtatious wink.
"Severus Snape out for one day, the world would go to hell."
She snickered. "Like that one time, you came to class with a cold and decided that would be a good day to use us all to make Pepper-Up potions."

“Hm. Well, the team this year could really use someone. I expect I’ll be keeping the Quidditch cup here in my office for yet another year. While that Weasley boy is fairly good, the rest of the team suffers from not enough experience. Even while they grow, without someone to replace Weasley, the cup will… stay mine.”
[break][break]
He gave her a slightly cocky grin. While he wasn’t much into Quidditch when he was at school, he quite enjoyed being able to hold it over McGonagall’s head. He liked to show off his house – he liked to bring glory to Slytherin. After he became a professor he had done several flying lessons on his own when no one was watching – he was good enough he could referee the games if he needed to. It was just something he made himself do and grow to like because he felt it was his job to support the team, especially as the Head of Slytherin House.
[break][break]
“A year definitely is not enough. I was never really into Quidditch when I was at school, but… well, after I became a professor I made sure I could do well. I wouldn’t be a good head of house if I couldn’t support my team, now could I?” There were even times when he wrote of strategies for the team, not often, but sometimes he did and gave them to the Captain. Occasionally he’d sit in on their practices and give them direction of what they needed to do – much like a coach would.
[break][break]
“My dear, no matter what you are in, I think I would find you attractive,” He gave her a small look, “Even if you weren’t in anything.” Yep. He went there. Though he wanted to say ‘especially’ instead of ‘even’, but he managed to keep himself in control and not going that far. After all, he was worried about pushing her away.
[break][break]
And whose acting like the dog now? Oh boy. Oh boy. He gave her a frown and raised an eyebrow. “W-Well!” The great Severus Snape stutter ladies and gentlemen! He knew he would never let that down. “It is… somewhat casual. While I appreciate the look, I can agree for once with Miss Tonks – if someone caught you coming down here like that… well… more questions may be raised than can be answered. I do not normally dress out of my robes – I have several of the same, so they can be washed between days. Though, I do have pajamas I sleep in and some dress robes. Otherwise… I can’t really match your… casual wear.”
[break][break]
“You are much prettier than my previous nurse, no offense to Madam Pomfrey,” He chuckled and hugged her close to him, his hands moving along her bare stomach since he had grabbed when the shirt had been up. “I can’t guarantee I will be a good patient. I have been told I’m the ‘most difficult patient’ that Madam Pomfrey ‘has ever had’.”
[break][break]
However after this he gave her a level look and responded with more seriousness and less affection than before – but not because he was annoyed, it was more that he had turned on the ‘professional’ mode when it came to talking about his job.
[break][break]
“I cannot trust any of these imbeciles to teach my class for me. I would have to work for weeks to repair the damage. I cannot even imagine how bad it will be when I get new fifth years next year fresh from not my class.” He lets out a frustrated huff. “Even when I am sick, I am better than anyone else at my job. I cannot let myself slack.”

"I dunnoooo," she said, taking the bait for the playful banter. "I have a feeling your winning streak is fast coming to a close."
She giggled, pressing a kiss to his cocky smile. "Just you wait and see. Though, I doubt it'll be this year. Wood is an excellent team captain, but we're still missing... something."
She shrugged, not worried about it. It was her final year; it had been a while since Gryffindor had won either the House or the Quidditch up, but she had never been too concerned about it. Slytherin, for the last six years, had had strong contenders, and there was no arguing it.
"It shows," she complimented, nodding. "Also hearing Wood complain endlessly."
She chuckled and then her brain halted. Now, she was one for making coy jokes, but that one was just right on the money. His subtleness was out the window. She blushed darkly, a smirk on her face. She would get used to this sort of flirtation eventually. She licked her lips, giving him a look that told him she would file that for later.
She sighed, "duly noted. Next time avoid the booty shorts."
She snickered, "I made it down here with no witnesses, so that's saying something."
She leaned against him, pressing a kiss to his lips. "No need to worry about that."
Her next words came with a very suggestive look. "Though, I can't wait for the day to see you out of your normal wear."
She let the comment hang there, her hand trailing along the stitching of his robes, the corner of her mouth quirking into a smile, she let him feel the shiver his touch evoked on her this time, his hands on her stomach, a soft sound she hadn't made before coming from her.
"Good patient or not, I'll take care of you either way. But I don't find you that difficult. Albeit a tad grumpy, but not difficult."
She smirked at him.
"Oh, I don't doubt you'll be in for a headache next year," she said this soothingly. "Hopefully they're only here for the year. Sirius and James, I mean. I don't think anyone can deal with them much longer than that."
She smiled at him, "I know you can't. But you're also human. But, luckily, you have me now, and I will do my best to take some of the stress away."

“Wood needs a couple years in order to really mature. And you need to find a new Seeker – from what I have heard none of the current Gryffindors are very good at it. Possibly due to a certain Weasley monopolizing the role.” Severus grinned, accepting the kiss with grace. “I always make sure that on the team, there’s a couple people who are training for each position so if our players graduate, there’s someone who has practiced just as much ready to take their place. I may never have been ‘into’ Quidditch when I was at school myself, but I almost have to in order to make my house proud.”
[break][break]
Wow that was a lot about Quidditch – but it was important to him because it was important to his house… also because he got to shove it in McGonagall’s face that he won, and she didn’t. 8 years and going strong – it would be 9 if they kept it up, which Snape had all the confidence in the world that they would win again. Perhaps after that when the Potter boy came, he could make it a decade. Wouldn’t that be nice?
[break][break]
“Well… not necessarily avoid the booty shorts, they are… attractive.” He grinned running a hand down her legs, “Just… maybe next time… throw on something over them until you reach here.” He did like them, perhaps a little too much. He was able to see her beautiful long legs, and even touch her skin along them, the warmth filling his body and his heart.
[break][break]
Oh boy, that little sound, it just sent his brain into overdrive. Her touch, her everything – the idea of wearing something different with her – the idea of, well, doing the opposite of wearing clothes in general. In one hand, he felt anxious, as he knew he wasn’t… the most attractive man – it wasn’t like he had a six-pack and large muscles. His arm tensed up – the one with the mark on it, thinking of how she would treat it – he never showed anyone though everyone seemed to assume he was indeed a Death Eater at one point. It was a dark part of his past he didn’t care to repeat.
[break][break]
“Me? Out of ‘normal’ wear? I would have to buy something, or have you spend the night.” He chortled returning her kiss with another kiss to her lips. Luckily he had training in controlling his emotions or he might have let out a content little sigh at her touch, but all those years of training held it back.
[break][break]
“Perhaps only a year, perhaps more, Dumbledore is the only one who knows.” He gave her a slight unsatisfied smile. While he trusted Dumbledore, he was unhappy with the little information he was given – that everyone was given. He sacrificed a lot – was it too much to ask for a little bit of something?
[break][break]
“Relieve stress in some way? My, you sound like a nurse.” A smile sprout on his face and he pushed his lower lip out, pouting. “Nurse Lupin, I hurt my arm, can you kiss it?” He points to his right upper arm. “And here?” He point to his right shoulder. “And… here?” He points to his neck. “And here?” He touches his lips.

Wow, that really was a lot about Quidditch, maybe more than she had expected. But it made sense. McGonagall was a fabulous player too. Had been rather. So, really, all in all, the two of them being rather knowledgeable wasn't that surprising.
It all flew over her head, though. She scrunched up her nose. "No, Charlie... he's...he's okay. Just not... great. Obviously. Given your current winning streak."
She giggled, "boy has his mind on Dragons more than anything, so, I'm pretty sure he's always distracted."
She sighed haughtily, "but that would defeat the whole purpose of wearing them in the first place! Being comfortable!"
She gave a suggest waggle of an eyebrow. "One of those sounds much easier than the other."
Part of her told her he was nervous of the idea. However, she knew that eventually, the tension would build up, and nervousness would no longer be a problem, as there would be too much need and hunger to care about anything else. On that thought, she gripped the forearm that held the dark mark, a tender look on her face and she leaned in and kissed him again.
It would be all right. She had one of her own, anyway. Where Fenrir bit her and took out most of the muscle and tendons. It was a miracle she could still use her arm, but magic was... well, magic. It took a long time to heal, and even then, it still wasn't perfect. It was rather unsightly as well. She hated showing it to people.
But if it was Severus, she would bare herself to him for all she was worth.
She hummed, a somewhat annoy expression appeared on her face. "Yes, Dumbledore only know. Dumbledore seems to only know for a lot of things."
Her jaw worked a moment, not saying anything else.
A giggle escaped her at his pout, and she kissed each place indicated. However, once at the neck kiss, she took the liberty to nip him gently first before pressing the kiss to his neck and the same went for her lips. She lingered on his lips for a few moments.
"I'll do anything, for my favourite patient," she gave him a wink.

He grinned. Of course, they had a winning streak – he put a lot of work into it. Though, it was a bit tiring and he had a lot of other things he had to be doing – so lately there wasn’t quite as much involvement from him, but they were still doing well, and had learned from his teachings. Even still, he hadn’t been a player really in school, but he wasn’t too bad now – well he could be a lot worse at least.
[break][break]
“Dragons. Such a Gryffindor thing to enjoy,” Snape said it as if it were something bad, scrunching up his nose, but honestly it was more of a quip against her, teasing. “While their magical properties are interesting, I prefer to deal with my dragons when they can’t attack and kill me.” Obviously the boy was taking after that blundering oaf of a gameskeeper who seemed to think it was just fine to have dangerous creatures around.
[break][break]
“Well, after you got here, you could always just wear the shorts,” He smirked, his hands rubbing against her bare legs looking into her eyes warmly with his dark, normally cold eyes. “Now, now, we’ve only been together for a few weeks, what would your brother think if suddenly you were spending the night with me?” He chuckled, having accepted her kiss once more, as she seemed to sense his nervousness about everything. Perhaps his mental shields were growing used to falling when they were alone, and he felt more comfortable expressing those emotions after years of bottling them up and beating himself up over even having any sort of feelings.
[break][break]
“I wish he would show the trust I’ve shown in him to me. However, given my past record, I can… understand unease. However, he doesn’t even tell those in the order he is close to – Lupin, Potter, Black, Pettigrew – Either they’re better actors than I’ve given them credit for or they are just as blind as me.”
[break][break]
He was grinning at each of the kisses, even making a little sound when she nipped at him. “Anything? I think this one needs a little more healing.” He points to his lips again with a smirk.

"I must be an odd Gryffindor, given what I tend to enjoy."
She gave a chuckle, eyeing him. "See, now that's logical. The boy literally wants to live with them."
She gave a sigh, shaking her head. Honestly, she didn't know how Molly put up with that particular son. Bill had a head on him, good for charms and curse breaking. Fred and George? While annoying, they're cunning and have good hearts. And Percy... well. He's Percy.
But enough with analyzing Weasley boys.
"I suppose," she said with a huff. Her eyes darkened at the mention of her brother. She hadn't spoken to him since the Hospital Wing, still seething at him. "He can keep his thoughts to himself. Or rather, he better wish he not be thinking anything lest he 'makes himself sick'." Oh yes, it was rather obvious she was still raw about that day.
She shook her head, "I think they're just as blind. From what I hear, they're not even sure on where to start to look. And Remus obviously won't talk to me, so I'm not even sure what to be looking out for."
She frowned, "I know I'm not an order member, nor do I wish to necessarily be one. But, like him, and his friends, wouldn't he realize that I'd probably have a wealth of information, just as long as he'd ask or talk to me?"
Another sigh, but she smiles. "You just want my kiss, admit it."
Without even waiting for a response she leaned up to pretty another kiss to his 'injury'.

[attr="class","manalishilpost"]
“What you enjoy? Is it… enjoying potions that makes you odd? Or perhaps is it the snogging of a Slytherin?” He raises an eyebrow with just a slight upturn of the corners of his lips.
[break][break]
Severus was about to speak but decided to stop himself – he was about to insult the Weasleys as a whole. First of all, Arthur loved muggles for some ungodly reason. Molly was too nice. Bill was arrogant. Charlie was childish, at least to Snape. Percy was extremely arrogant. And the twins were annoying and very much trouble. They reminded him of a few certain bullies during his time at Hogwarts. He was sure the other two younger children would be just as bad.
[break][break]
“Rose,” He quickly cupped her face with his hands and looked at her steadily. “While he did act extremely rashly, arrogantly, and annoyingly, he… did have a point. I was – and still am – not the nicest person you will ever meet. For his sister to be with the kid whom he hated at school, the man who became a Death Eater and hurt his friends during that time, I cannot imagine what it would be like for him.” He sighed, dropping his hands to her hips again. “It’s just a matter of time before his inflated head has a needle taken to it.”
[break][break]
He hated to admit it, but Remus was the best of those four – if Severus had to pick. Occasionally Remus would stand up to his friends – though that rarely happened. One time after a ‘bullying’ session, Remus tried to help him pick up his belongings, but obviously Severus would have no part of that and refused his help. He still hated him, but if he had to pick one to be related to, it would be him.
[break][break]
“Rose,” He once more gave her a serious look, “While I do appreciate your input for things you figure out on your own, there is a good reason to keep you in the dark as well. You do not know Occlumency. If you were to encounter a Death Eater – or, heavens forbid, the Dark Lord himself – you would become a liability to the effort. What we’re dealing with here is of the utmost importance, and if word gets out… the war will rage on for much longer than we hope.”
[break][break]
He lets out a shaky sigh, swallowing. “However, I’m not one to waste a resource, no matter how much I love said resource. Do you know where someone would go if they wanted to hide something and have no one find it ever again?”
[break][break]
He gives her a quick wink. “Well, you said anything.” He licks his lips and steals another kiss from her lips. “I think I’m addicted. Without your kisses I think I shall perish from withdrawals.”

"A little of both, perhaps."
She shrugged, giving him a teasing wink.
"Point or not, he didn't need to be a child about it," she worked her jaw a moment. "I kissed you for fuck's sake."
Though, if she looked at this from his perspective; perhaps she would've acted the same way. There was that motherly quality of Remus again. "But, attacking someone just because you don't think they should be anywhere near your sister is kinda barbaric, if you ask me. There were better ways of handling this."
She sighed, heavily, looking guilty. "Though, I know I didn't act much better. I knew he was uncomfortable by it... so..."
Again, she sighed. "Maybe both of our egos will need deflating."
She chuckled, he and her brother were alike in that regard, ego against ego.
"I've heard a good number of the stories, from Remus, from Sirius and from James - you can imagine the way James spins the tales, of course; I never figured out why they started bullying you in the first place. Aside from that, they were typical Gryffindor students; on the troublemaking side, but..." she made a face. "I'm sorry, I'm an empathetic creature. I just never thought it was right. And we can chalk it up to 'stupid childishness', sure, but to be honest, it shouldn't have ever happened at all."
Unfortunately, there was no way to go back and change the past. So she settled on placing an apologetic kiss on his mouth. "I know I don't need to be apologizing in steed of my brother. But it's also my way of reiterating that my pursuing this is not a joke they've set me on. At all."
She gave a look. "Plus, it's gone too far to be a joke in any capacity. If they told me to pull a joke on you and use such methods... I think there would be more to be pissed off about. I'll not be used by any means or anyone."
"I'm not too fond of being kept in the dark, especially when it concerns people I care about. But, I see your point..." her brows furrowed, as if she was thinking.
"I'm not apt at Occlumency, but I know someone who is and who can teach me!" she suddenly looked at him, eyes begging. "Wouldn't it be ideal? Just in case I do end up leaning something? Even if it's completely by accident? Though a Fidelus charm would probably work too, but..."
She was the sister of an order member. And while they do tend to keep her in the dark, she was intelligent, and once she was given at least enough clues, she could typically figure out shit on her own.
"I mean, I'm already treading dark waters here, aren't I? Just being with you?" She hated to put it like that, but if we were looking at things logically.
"Another Death Eater I could see, Voldy himself; I'm far too under his boot for that. He might send out some underling, or I'd have to face Fenrir himself, or something."
She gave a grim smile, "though, I'd love the chance to have Fenrir on the firing end of my wand."
She gave him a look, she hated to be thought of a liability. "Teach me Occlumency, Sev. Teach me to protect myself, so you don't have to worry, so Remus doesn't have to worry. I don't want to be a liability to either of you - with whatever you're doing."
At his question, however, she stared at him. "Well, sure! I'm a werewolf who also needs a hiding spot. Normally it's in my dorm, but - one time, I found this room on the seventh floor. Across of the tapestry of Barnabas the Barmy. You walk past it three times, thinking about what you need and it opens to whatever you need it to be. I've hidden things there loads of times. Old books, et cetera. It's really quite a handy place..."
She said this like it was common knowledge, her head tilted. "Ya'll looking for the room of requirement?"
She smirked, giggling, "well, you better work on those withdrawals, I can't have you perishing before class."

He gave her a bittersweet smile and nodded slowly. “Of course it was immature and barbaric. He’s a –“ Stopping himself, upon realizing the racist remark that was about to slip out of his mouth. It wasn’t like he believed all werewolves were animalistic monsters – just a small amount of them tended to not be – which included Rose. There were so many who followed Greyback and attacked children just to have more to join their ranks. However, that didn’t mean all werewolves were that way – Remus himself was not a monster in that way. “Well he’s a ‘Marauder’.” Severus looked like he had just taken terrible cold medicine, swallowed a bitter pill.
[break][break]
When one was around racist assholes, especially when one had to be a racist asshole around those racist assholes, one tended to say racist things even if they didn’t believe it. It just made that person feel like shit when it slipped out around someone they loved especially when it pertained to them. “I think my ego might need deflating.” He looks almost disgusted with himself. He was going to beat himself up for thinking that for ages now. That was exactly how he pushed Lily away.
[break][break]
“I believe… there was a lot of things that lead to the relationship that we had. Potter and his friends were cowards who refused to face me unless it was four on one. He and his friends were proud of their house, whereas I was proud of Slytherin house – the house my mother was in, and the house rivalry did not help. Out of everyone in the school, only my housemates paid any attention to me, other than… Lily.” He looked at her thoughtfully, having accepted her kiss with a small smile. He wouldn’t forgive them – never. However, kissing the sister of one of them did help him start to at least tolerate the one she was related to.
[break][break]
“I was an easy target. Big nose, hair that was hard to keep… neat. A general… dark disposition. I won’t make any excuses, but they did not make it hard for me to choose the Death Eaters. I… quite honestly, wanted to be loved. I wanted friends – I wanted to be popular. Then I realized how stupid I was, but I had already pushed away the one person who had ever shown me actual, genuine care.” He closed his eyes for a moment before he opened them again and gave her a small, almost worried sort of smile.
[break][break]
Severus immediately wanted to tell her no. However, she was right – she was right about so many things. He stared at her for a moment and then took in a deep breath and sighed. “Voldy?” He pressed a kiss to her lips and then shook his head. “To say his name with such casual dismissal is something very few people could stomach.” He raised a hand and rubbed his forehead for a moment and looked to her with a curious look. “You are right, just by being with me you will be put at risk. I… am considered one of the Dark Lord’s most faithful servants.” Funny since he was a traitor.
[break][break]
“Very well. I will teach you – so long as you promise me one thing. If we are ever in a situation where it is my life or your life, you will save your life instead of mine.” He looked at her seriously.
[break][break]
When she talked about the Room of Requirement, it was hard for him, master of emotions, to hide the surprise on his face. “Perhaps it has escaped your notice, but I do not tend to explore the upper floors of this school. However, your brother and his friend should know of it. Curious as to why they haven’t informed Dumbledore of a possible hiding spot… Unless they haven’t thought of it yet, and considering how thickheaded they are, it is a possibility.” He placed a finger on his chin and thought for a moment.
[break][break]
“So if I were to walk past the wall three times, thinking that I needed a romantic place to spend time alone with someone I cared about, it would present what I needed?” He wasn’t being subtle with this. “It might help the withdrawals.”

It was almost like she could tell what was going to come out of his mouth next, but he immediately caught himself and she smiled softly. Already forgiven. She knew it was going to be a rough road, for him, for the both of them. But she wouldn't let it stop her. She giggled softly.
"That he is. And we'll deflate our egos together, ne?"
She saw the pain cross through his eyes and she leaned forward, pressing her lips against his. She wasn't fragile. She knew what the world thought of her. Her brother. The people he was around thinking the same, and when you're around that for an extended amount of time, well, it was a hard habit to shake. But he would shake it, she knew. Time, that's all he needed. She wasn't so fragile as Lily, if fragile was the world for it. She wouldn't run just because of one altercation. One infraction. Shecould see the pain of just him even thinking it brought him.
There were no charges here.
So it all came down to the house rivalry thing. That was really it? She sighed. "Slytherin's aren't all that bad."
It was true, she prided herself on being a very good judge of character. Sure there were a few that took the sterotype and ran with it, but then there were a couple, that just... the cahracteristics just fit, but they were good people. Shadowed in the darkness of the house. Again, a sigh. Severus was one of those, shadowed in the darkness of people who had made bad decisions.
She smiled softly, taking his hand. "I don't know about popularity, I mean, you have a sort of rapport going for you. But I'm the last person to know anything about popularity. I guess I could've been popular, if my Lupinisms hadn't kept me from making social connections." But honestly, she was glad of it. What social connections would have supported her with the decision,, her heart had made now? Even when her brother didn't fully support her of it. Social connections be damned, honestly.
"Though, I know I'm not a dozen people, but you're quite the catch in my book. I hope my love is enough for you. I want you to be happy."
She smirked at him, accepting his kiss. "Fear in the name is only fear in the thing itself, right?"
She gave a shrug, a dismissal, "again, werewolf. Far beneath his boot for notice. Then again, maybe not as beneath his notice as I might think, at least, not anymore. But, best we don't bring attention to that, if we can help it, right?"
Most faithful servant... she wanted to laugh, but she held it back, though the mirth shone in her eyes. "Seems I have a penchant for dangerous, as it were."
She chewed her bottom lip, thinking of what he was asking her to promise, feeling the want to butt heads with him, self-sacrificing instinct against another. She swallowed and nodded, and knowing just the physical affirmation wouldn't be enough, she spoke. "I promise."
But it would be worth the skill and hopefully that sort of thing never comes to pass. Regardless of how much a very real possibility it is. But she would do everything in her power to get them both out, alive.
"They perhaps do, but, again, Gryffindor mentality, it'll take them weeks to remember such a tool exists and they'll think themselves stupid for not coming up with it sooner. Remind me why I was sorted Gryffindor again?"
She chuckled, shaking her head. But then she was completely derailed off the seriousness of the topic with his next comment. She blushed scarlet.
"Y-yes, I suppose that could be of one use," her brain had gone to the gutter. Imagining what the room could offer them with such a request. "It would most definitely be accommodating, for sure."
Still scarlet, she smirked, "though I have gotten fond of you snatching me away into tucked away alcoves for random snogs. It's very exhilarating."
Intense desire filledd her gaze and if he just barely touched into her thoughts, he'd find things of ann alluring nature. Especially one memory of just the other week where she had demanded his touch from him. She shivered pleasurably at the thought.
"I can get behind this way of thinking."
