Masterlist

Word count: 1,069

A/N: This is part of a one-shot series in an AU where Severus has an eleven-year old daughter named Hazel. More details on the first part if you are interested in knowing more about this AU!

Severus was having a rough day, everything that could go wrong had indeed. First, he woke up late and had to rush to get ready, bolting down to the Slytherin dormitory to wake the remaining stragglers of Slytherin house and shoo them out for breakfast. Then, in every class, some daft dunderhead blew up at least one cauldron, one of which spilled a highly caustic liquid all over his robes resulting in him having to dispel them immediately! Thank goodness he always wears an extra set of muggle clothes under his robes just as a precaution for such an incident.

With all of these events occurring, Severus had given more detentions just today than he had ever done before. It really was no surprise that he was on the end of his rope and about to lose every ounce of patience he had worked so hard to build up over many years. A booming knock at his classroom door snaps him out of his grumpy trance and makes him audibly groan. He’s had it with everything today and the last thing that he wants is someone trying to talk to him.

“Come in,” he drawls, collapsing into the chair behind his desk. “Remus, what brings you here?” he asks at the sight of the tall man with graying hair that stops in front of his desk, his hands shoved deep in his pockets.

“I came to ask permission for your daughter to accompany me to Hogsmeade this afternoon. I may have let slip that I was heading there to do some shopping for some supplies and she may have overheard me. I tried telling her that first-years aren’t allowed into Hogsmede but of course, she didn’t listen. Said she’d been many times with you already, Hazel, that clever girl,” he smiles. “So what do you say, Severus? Can she come shopping with me? You can come along if you want as well. I don’t have the heart in me to tell her no, so you will have to if you say she can’t.”

Severus sighs. The last thing he wants to do right now is go out, in fact, he had plans to collapse in his chambers as soon as he retired there for the night. But something about Remus’s plea has him captivated, reminding him of the times he used to venture out with his wife and baby Hazel. He knows he can probably trust Remus with his daughter alone, but then again he still has his doubts, even more so he’s worried about what students will think if they see the three of them together.

“Hazel has us both wrapped around her finger,” Severus chuckles. “I can’t tell her no either, it’s been so long since we’ve done anything together. I guess she can go, but I will be accompanying her.”

“As you wish, I’ll meet you both at The Three Broomsticks at six o’clock. We can grab dinner if you’d like.”

“I’m sure Hazel will enjoy that. We will see you there,” Snape concludes.

~~~

As soon as Severus told his daughter about their evening plans she squealed in excitement, tackling her dad in a huge bear hug right in the middle of the Slytherin common room. She had been worried that her father would say no but had plans to plead and beg until she broke him down anyway. She knew how to get under his skin.

“Hay! Can you release your grip on me? I can barely breathe!” Severus gasps, trying to fill his lungs with enough air to get a good breath.

“Sorry, dad!” she exclaims, letting go of her father who pulls on the neck of his robes to readjust them. “I’m just looking forward to spending time with you and professor Lupin! He’s my favorite professor and I think he’s so cool! Wait! Let me show you the book he gave me to read!” Hazel rummages around in her bag before pulling out a green leather-bound book and handing it to her father.

“ ‘Defense Against The Dark Arts: A Complete History,’ ” he mumbles, turning the book over in his hands before returning it to Hazel. “That’s one of my favorites,” he muses.

“Really? I asked him for some extra reading materials and he said this book would surely cure my curiosity being as it contains all known history of the subject,” she laughs, tucking the book back away in her bag.

“He is quite right there,” Severus agrees, surprising himself at his willingness to agree with Remus lately. “Now, go work on your homework or I’ll be going to see Remus alone.” Severus playfully wags a finger at her and Hazel sticks out her tongue at him. Both fall into a short laughing fit before Hazel waves goodbye to head to the library to work on her homework.

~~~

A few hours later Severus and Hazel enter The Three Broomsticks hand-in-hand. Hazel keeps trying to wiggle out of her father’s grasp to run over to Remus, her green eyes crinkling at the edges as a huge smile overtakes her face. Sighing Severus lets go of her hand and she takes off, running to the table in the corner under a staircase where Remus is sitting, his nose buried deep in the Daily Prophet, sipping on a glass of firewhiskey.

When Hazel reaches him, he immediately places the paper down and embraces her, pulling out the chair across from him for her to sit down. Severus greets Remus with a bow of his head, choosing to sit beside Hazel.

“Would you like anything to drink, Severus? Perhaps a butterbeer for you, Hazel?”

Severus nods and says that he would like a firewhiskey and Hazel agrees to a butterbeer as well. Excusing himself Remus returns shortly after, drinks in hand.

“Thanks, Professor!” Hazel begins sipping on her drink happily humming to herself.

“How is it, Hazel?” Remus asks her.

“It’s great! I love butterbeer; it’s my favorite!”

“That’s nice,” Remus hums, directing his attention to Severus. “Anything you need to pick up while we are here? I had planned on swinging by Dervish and Banges.”

Severus shrugs. “I’m here to accompany Hazel.”

“Of course. I’d hate to think you were here to spend time with me,” Remus smirks.

The two men, along with Hazel, find themselves in Dervish and Banges shortly after, but soon Remus and Hazel slip away together giggling while Severus is distracted. The two quickly make their way over to Honeydukes hand-in-hand.

“Okay, Hazel, hurry up before Severus realizes we are gone! You can grab two candies,” he says holding up two fingers.

“Three!” Hazel insists, pushing Remus’s hand down and holding up three of her fingers in his face.

“Fine,” he groans. “But don’t tell your dad I snuck you away to buy you some treats!”

“Don’t tell her dad what now?” a low voice inquires from behind Severus.

Remus’s eyes bulge and he slowly turns around, sweat dripping down his face at the sight of Severus behind him, his eyes narrowed and arms crossed. “Oh, um, Hazel?” Remus whips his head around to get Hazel to explain their actions to her dad but she’s nowhere to be found, already wandering around the store for her three sweet treats. “Fuck,” Remus mutters under his breath, smiling sheepishly. He attempts to back away from Severus but he grips his shirt, holding him in place.

“Language,” Severus tuts. “You thought you could slip away from me, huh?”

“I - I guess,” he stutters.

“Let this be a lesson to you, Remus. Nothing goes unnoticed by me.”

“Duly noted,” Remus responds, shaking slightly.

“Professor Lupin I picked out my sweets! I want a chocolate frog, these exploding bonbons, and a sugar quill.” Handing the treats to Remus she bats he eyes at her dad innocently. “Please, dad! Professor Lupin promised to get me some candies!”

“Fine,” he huffs. “If this idiot wants to buy you some candy that’s on him,” he mumbles, his lips turning up just a bit in the corners into a small smile. It warms his heart to see Remus caring for his daughter and treating her to something special, even if it is just a bit of candy.

He’d heard a couple of Ravenclaw boys once discussing if Harry had some sort of masochism kink, if that was why he was dating someone like Draco Malfoy, if baiting Snape was some kind of a turn-on for him. There had even been a half-joking whisper of a threesome happening in Harry’s detentions.

Harry had laughed himself hoarse at that one, then called Remus over the mirror just to tell his godfather the juicy gossip. Which had backfired slightly, as Remus had suggested that while Harry might not have a masochism kink, Severus was no stranger to such things, which was more information than necessary jesus fucking christ Remus.

Forget Snape playing double agent. The biggest deception in the wizarding world was Remus Lupin convincing everyone that he was mild and innocent and responsible.

*This is a part of my Snupin oneshot book over on Wattpad that I publish around a year or so ago. And have decided to make them available here on Tumblr!

Late Night Laughs

It was late at night and there were soft laughs that echoed the narrow halls of the school. A few students still roamed the halls as they were going back to their dorms from a late night of studying or even just reading at the library. Why did they go through the dungeons? Who knew? As the students walked down the halls, they all stopped when they continued to hear the laughs from the one and only Professor Snape's potions classroom.

"Is that slimy git actually laughing?" A question flew out from a Ronald Weasley, and his comment earned him a hard smack on the back of his head from a Hermione Granger.

"Ronald, don't call Professor Snape that. It's very rude." Hermione had scolded Ron, who looked back at her in a weird disbelief.

"Before this turns into another fight that I'm usually in the middle of, shall we figure out who captured Professor Snape and replaced him with a human being?" Harry blurted out, not wanting this small conversation to turn into something bigger.

The two red hairs nodded their heads and followed a few students who had the same idea as they did. The several footsteps echoed from wall to wall and grew softer as they reached the Potions' classroom. Chatter apprised among them, but stopped when they heard someone say something.

"Wolf, I am disappointed that you think that I could be jubilant." Severus' soft voice came muffled from the door but most of the students were able to catch what he was saying.

"He said, 'Wolf I am disappointed that you think that I could be jubilant' for those who didn't hear it." A seventh year named Everly said.

Many quiet thanks could be heard for Everly, but once again went silent to continue eavesdropping on Severus and whomever was this 'Wolf' persons' conversation.

"Sev, I never said that and you know it. Always with the dramatics."

"I am not dramatic, perhaps realistic. But Remus, one of us has to be..." Severus mumbled before letting an audible 'ouch' from most likely Remus slapping his chest.

"Remus? As in Remus Lupin? Our DADA Professor?" A student wondered out loud.

"Professor Snape and Professor Lupin are talking together?" Another student from the little huddle said, which a small group of girls giggled to.

"Why would Remus be talking to Professor Snape?" Harry wondered, as he turned to 'Mione and Ron.

"I have no idea, and I'd rather not find out. It's really none of our business with what our Professor's private life are." 'Mione huffed out, with her face matching the fiery red of her tangled hair.

"Come on, the worst they could do is give us detention." Ron exasperated, as if it was the world's simplest thing to say.

"You guys can stay here if you want, but we have to get to our dorms. It's way past curfew and I don't want to get detention again." Everly ranged out, taking the rest of the gathering in tow and leading them down the hall hopefully going up the stairs to their dorms.

Before the three of them could answer a loud chuckle could be heard loud and clear throughout the door.

"SEVERUS-S S-TOP IT...I YEILD-D...YIELD.." The three of them heard Remus laugh out, most likely from being tickled from Severus.

"Is Professor Snape....tickling....Professor Lupin?" 'Mione asked as if it was such a sin to say out loud.

"I don't know if I should..." Is all they could hear from whatever Severus had said.Small pants could be heard, as someone let out a dark chuckle sending shivers down Harry's back as if he had heard it before.

"Does my poor Remus need water?-Shall we go get some for you?-Would that make you feel better?" Severus joked as if he was speaking to a child.

"Shut up...but yes, we should...I need high maintenance."

"Don't I know it. And stop punching me, Remus."

Footsteps could be heard getting closer to the door, and the Golden Trio scrambled to get away from the door not wanting to get caught listening into a private conversation.

Severus opened the door and let Remus go ahead first and mumbled a quiet 'Ladies first,' which once again earned Remus another punch on the shoulder.

"If I get another bruise and Poppy finds out. I am blaming you." Severus huffed out, before looking down the hall as if he knew someone (or somebody's) were out there. "Alright, who's out there? No need to hide, I could hear your footsteps."

"Love, who cares. Let's just go to the kitchen." Remus said, trying to drag him away down the hall the other way.

"Fine, Wolf." Severus sneered, taking Remus' hand and walking with him.

A few minutes have passed as Harry, Hermione, and Ron let out a breath they didn't know they were holding.

"I wish we didn't eavesdrop on them. I am now traumatized." Ron pouted.

"Oh now, you wish for it. Whatever! Hopefully a good night's rest will help us forget about this?" Hermione somewhat hopefully said, slapping her hand over her face.

"I don't think in the next hundred years, will I ever forget this." Harry laughed, as he grabbed both 'Mione and Ron's hands, dragging the three of them to their dorms, having had enough of this night.

Ponder

Severus knew his work was important.

He knew that to defeat Voldemort, he had to remain a Death Eater. To assure his secret be kept he would need to isolate himself from everybody on the other side after killing Dumbledore. They had agreed on this, but it didn’t make it any easier. The only way he got through was shutting down any emotion or empathy. Although a skilled occlumens, he often wished he could close his mind to himself when he laid his head down at night or when he found himself alone.

Once in a while, when the other side had a win, he’d tell himself, soon. Soon this would be over. He’d make his dues and change his life. Leave his bitterness behind and create a new life. Perhaps with one person in particular. A man he used to have immense prejudice over, but who greeted him with kindness almost every time. Remus Lupin. The months following Remus’ resignation, they grew close; writing letters to one another and visiting when Severus’ schedule allowed it. He often imagined a life with Remus.

More often than not, this was silenced with another merciless kill of a muggle family or a previous student of his. He had to remain unfazed with each kill. Granted, he almost never witnessed it in real time, except for today.

As he walked up those gloomy steps in the Malfoy Manor, preparing to misinform his ‘Lord’ on Potter’s relocation, he was truly unprepared to see his fellow coworker and friend floating in bad condition above the meeting table.

Charity.

In truth, Severus didn’t think of her much, didn’t think much of the times he spent with most of his colleagues. Useless to ponder on memories that offered no assistance in his deceit. Still, as he stood there, staring, his mind flickered through their times in the staffroom. Laughing, chatting, and sharing experiences. Severus had never met someone who’s name fit so well with one’s character. She was the spitting image of empathy.

“Severus…”

His eyes switched from Charity to Lord Voldemort. Any emotion slipping through was tucked back, transformed into a callous mask.

“I was beginning to worry you’d lost your way. Come. We’ve saved you a seat.” Lord Voldemort gestured to the empty seat near him.

Severus did what he always did. Deliver the news with confidence, shutting down any alternate route brought up by the surrounding Death Eaters. He knew that Lord Voldemort would believe him and him only. Dissociating from the horrors around him. This was different. He knew the fate of the muggle and wizarding world depended on his composure and feign loyalty to the Death Eaters. That was the only thing that stopped him from intervening.

As she begged Severus to save her, not a single twitch of the lip could be afforded to him. A single crack to his mask would risk his cover. Therefore he watched as she’s murdered brutally, her lifeless corpse devoured by that monstrous creature Nagini. His emotions buried deep, collecting, waiting for permission to explode.

—

Halfway through his journey back to Spinner's End, with a quick swish of his wand, he apparated to the address that Remus’ had given him the last time they met.

The Tonks household.

Remus was sitting on a vintage settee in a den-type room, presumingly reading a book that slipped out of his hand when his body jolted to his feet at the sound of Severus’ arrival. The two locked eyes for only a second before Remus picked up his wand and placed his index finger on his lips, “Shh…”

Remus closed the door quietly, whispering and waving his wand, “Muffliato.”

Severus stared into Remus’ eyes, knowing he was assuming the worst.

“What’s happened, Severus? Why have you come? Is your cover blown?” Remus placed his hands on either side of Severus’ arms.

Severus shook his head slightly and tried to speak but only a stifled sob came out. Remus’ worrying eyes seemingly scanned Severus' body for injuries before pulling him to sit down.

“Talk to me, Sev. What’s going on?” Remus spoke softly, tucking a lock of hair from Severus’ face behind his ear.

Severus closed his eyes at the touch of Remus’ hand. The calluses and scars on his hands made them rough on some parts, but soft on others. Nonetheless, Severus felt as if he would never feel Remus’ touch again, but here he was. It awarded him comfort and warmth that he had not felt in a long time.

Followed by that was fear. A fear that Remus would never get this close to Severus again after what he was going to tell him. As much as he wanted to stay like this all night, he mustered up his composure to whisper, “Charity.”

Remus nodded his head and repeated the name. He looked up while muttering her name a few more times before meeting Severus’ eyes again. “Burbage. Charity Burbage? She was a professor, right? Oh, Sev. She’s dead?”

Severus sighed in response, which Remus understood as a yes.

Still, Severus could tell that Remus was perplexed. Countless deaths since they last saw each other, including ones that Severus knew. Why come now?

“Severus… Did you- Were you the one to-” Remus couldn’t finish his sentence as he himself was choking up as well. Thankfully Severus responded quickly.

“No.” He cried out softly, lowering his head. “Please, you have to believe me. I couldn’t, I-I wo-”

He stopped himself. He couldn’t make promises he wasn’t sure he could keep. He knew if the time came to it, he would have to kill someone he knew; no matter their relation.

“Hey, I believe you. Severus.” Remus placed his hand on Severus’ chin and lifted his head up gently so the two could look at each other. “I believe you.”

Remus’ thumb glided over Severus’ cheek to wipe away a tear. Severus leaned his head into his touch and Remus opened his hand to rest solely on Severus’ cheek.

“She begged me to save her, Remus. I couldn’t do anything.” His voice shook with disgust. “She died knowing I was evil.”

“Sev…” Remus removed his hand from the slender man’s cheeks to instead hold both of Severus’ hands. “I need you to listen to me very closely. You are not evil. This is war, Severus. We’ve all done things we regret, but you…” Remus bit his lip in an attempt to keep his composure. He shook his head before continuing. “You have made some of the hardest sacrifices and for that, I am so sorry. If I could take your pain or switch places, I would. Please, Severus. You are not evil. One day, you will be taught in classes and I know that is not your desire, but I want you to know that you are important. You are loved. I’m sorry you were tasked with this responsibility. I’m here for you until the end, Severus. Always will be.”

Severus, although still deeply feeling guilty, calmed down with Remus’ soft voice and kind words. They stared into each other’s eyes longingly, both of them stuck in time, neither wanting this moment to end. The two had never been this close to each other before. In one small move, Severus leaned forward to kiss Remus. When their lips met, all worries floated away and Severus was safe. Remus didn’t pull away, giving in to Severus’ kiss and pulling his hands away from Severus’ to place both of them around the back of Severus’ neck. The kiss lasted not even a minute, but it felt like eternity for both.

Remus was the one who pulled away. When Severus opened his eyes, he could see that Remus was the one with guilt plastered on his face.

“Sev… I have to tell you something.” Remus sighed. “You must’ve heard that Tonks and I got married. Or maybe you haven’t, I don’t know, but she’s pregnant. I can’t explain how it happened, but it just did. I care for her and she loves me.”

Bad company

Chapter 2: Limbo

"Severus, you can just ask me. That's why I'm here. There is so little research…you won't find what you're looking for in books." "That is why you're here?" Severus said, the force of his exclamation causing him to cringe in pain. Lupin crossed his arms and leaned against a kitchen cabinet. "I'm the only one who could possibly understand what you're going through." "I can't imagine you volunteered eagerly for the role of my babysitter." "In fact I did. I have quite enough going to keep me busy, but I want to help." The admission caught Severus off-guard. Ah, Lupin, the benevolent saint. "I don't need your pity, Lupin."

The Wolf, The Bat, and The Girl

Part one: Wolfsbane

Pairing: Snupin, Severus Snape x Remus Lupin

Warnings: Slight angst to begin with but becomes fluffy by the end, mentions of Severus's late wife, little bit of self-doubting from Severus, mentions of how Severus was bullied while in school

Word Count: 2.396

A/N: This takes place after the Battle of Hogwarts. Snape and Remus lived, and Remus never got married to Tonks (they went on a few dates and that is all). Snape was 33 when he secretly got married and no one ever knew he was married or met his wife. He was 35 when Hazel was born. His wife passed from an illness shortly after the battle of Hogwarts when he was 39 and he’s been caring for Hazel on his own since. She grew up at Hogwarts being cared for by Minerva (who she refers to as her grandmother) and Sev. Snape and Remus are currently 46 years old and Severus returned to teach at Hogwarts after Voldemort’s defeat. Remus only returned this year as he was employed elsewhere helping with studies on werewolves and fighting for them to get more rights. Minerva became headmaster because Severus refused to take up the position again preferring to return to a somewhat normal life. This takes place around 2006ish if you are worried about dates lol (I think I did the math correctly anyways, dates confuse me whoops).

Anyway, I’m def going to do a collection of fics focusing on this version of Snupin with Hazel Snape. I am really in love with this idea and yes I'm already working on part two! ;)

Masterlists

“Daddy!” Eleven-year-old Hazel Snape, giggles as she runs into his office. She hunches over her hands on her knees as she pants from the run she just embarked on from the defense against the dark arts classroom to the dungeons. After catching her breath she bolts upright and jumps into her dad’s lap, giggly with excitement.

“How was your first day of classes, honey?” Severus asks her, hugging her tightly in his arms before releasing her.

“Ah-mazing!” She twirls around and does a little happy dance causing Snape to smile, his eyes crinkling at the corners.

“What class did you enjoy the most?”

“Defense against the dark arts,” Hazel responds immediately, knowing she doesn’t need to give it a second thought since the class has already captivated her interest. “I really like Professor Lupin, he makes the class so fun!” she giggles.

Not understanding what Hazel sees in Lupin, Snape rolls his eyes at the mention of his name.

He’s never been particularly fond of the guy though he was in the same year as him at school. It’s mostly due to Lupin's association with the group of boys that bullied him for years which leaves a bad taste in his mouth at the mention of his name. He has to admit that Lupin has changed a bit over the years. Every now and then he will still throw an insult or two Severus’s way, to which Severus always returns the favor, but he’s mostly amicable.

“Mhmm,” he says thoughtfully, playing off his indifference to Remus. “You have potions with me tomorrow, Hay.”

“Ugh,” she sighs. “I know, dad! It’s going to be so weird having you as my professor.”

“It’s going to be just as weird having my knucklehead of a daughter as my student,” he jokes, ruffling her hair with his hand, and making her giggle. He presses a kiss to her head just as he hears a knock on his office door. “I guess you better be off, daddy’s got work to do,” he sighs, wrapping her in a hug.

“See you at dinner!” Hazel exclaims, waving bye to her dad as she exits.

“Cute kid, by the way. She seems exceptionally smart, just like her father,” a silky voice says from the doorway.

“Remus,” Snape says coldly.

“Severus,” Lupin replies with a nod. “May I come in?”

“I suppose so,” Snape drawls.

His hands clasped behind his back, Remus enters and takes a lap around the room, examining the many jars lining the shelves. “What great decor you have,” he acknowledges.

“Did you come here to peruse my office and comment on what I keep in it or do you have something useful to say? Perhaps you came here just to waste my time, you seem to be awfully good at that,” Snape scoffs. His fists begin turning a ghostly shade of white and his blue veins become more visible with each passing second. Severus hates having his time wasted; every second is precious to him.

“I came here to ask for a favor.”

“And, just what is it? I haven’t got all day!” Snape snarls.

“I’d like you to teach me how to brew Wolfsbane.”

Snape chuckles. “You? Brewing Wolfsbane? That’s hysterical! It’s a highly complicated potion that only the best can perfect!”

“And that’s why I want you to teach me. It’s a win-win, Severus. You won’t have to waste your time brewing such a complicated potion every month, and I’ll have the knowledge to keep others safe from me during the full moon.”

Severus scrunches his nose and runs a hand through his hair. He has to admit, Remus does have a point. If he can teach the useless idiot how to brew his own Wolfsbane, he will gain more free time to focus on his own experimental potions. But, can he trust Remus to brew it correctly? If he doesn’t, he could put many lives in danger. Should he take that risk?

“Fine,” he huffs, “I think we have a deal.”

“I figured as such.” Remus’s mouth twitches up at the corners in a small knowing smirk; he’s got Severus right where he wants him. “I know you will have to begin brewing next month's potion Friday evening, am I correct?”

“Yes,” he drawls.

“I’ll see you here Friday evening. How’s eight o’clock sound?”

“I suppose that will work.”

“Good evening, Severus.” Turning on his toes, Remus’s eyes find Severus and linger there for one moment before he slams the door shut behind him with a thud.

“That idiot,” Severus mumbles under his breath, a small smile creeping up the corners of his lips. A puff of air escapes his lips as he takes notice of his smile and his lips immediately fall back into a resting position. Why he is smiling over such a daft imbecile when he has work to be done he doesn’t quite understand.

~~~

As Severus is setting up the supplies for the potion on Friday evening, the creaking of his office door opening makes him pause for a moment. “Where are your manners, Remus? Shouldn’t you knock before entering someone else’s space?” he sneers, turning around to face Remus.

Remus simply shrugs and ignores Severus’s questions, shutting the door behind him. “Everything ready?” he asks, his chin resting on his fingers as he observes the setup.

“It is,” Severus scoffs. Though he’s had a few days to prepare himself he is not looking forward to what is probably going to ensue tonight. He’s expecting Remus to be sarcastic and snippy with him and ask stupid questions just to set him off and annoy him.

“Shall we begin or shall I proceed to mix everything together and hope for the best?” Remus huffs, raising an eyebrow at Snape.

Snape sighs and begins his lecture on Wolfsbane potion. In excruciating detail, he explains everything from the theory to each step in the process. A quill and parchment were pulled out by Remus in anticipation of taking notes, and he even asked questions when he became confused. Severus was caught off guard by Lupin's gesture and couldn't help but chuckle at the realization. It was a bit odd to see his puzzled expression as Severus finished up his lesson and they began the first steps of brewing the potion.

Throughout the evening, the two sparred various verbal blows, but both seemed to enjoy the banter, stopping to let out a small chuckle or hide a growing smile with a scowl.

“No! Don’t cut it like that! Do it like this, Remus. It’s much more effective.” “I’ll show you how effective I can be with a knife if you don’t pipe down!”

“I would appreciate it if you would back up a bit, Severus! I don’t appreciate your hot breath on my neck!”

“I’m simply making sure you don’t blow up the cauldron in my office! I do not want to have to clean up such a mess!”

Thankfully, the night goes by without incident.

“Okay, that does it for tonight,” Severus announces, remarking on the state of the potion. “Due to the nature of this potion, we are going to have to meet every evening until it is completed.”

Remus rolls his eyes. “That means I’m stuck seeing you for a while, huh?” he grumbles.

Snape glares at Lupin. “Is my presence truly that horrifying to be around?” he snaps, as he begins tidying up his desk from the night.

“Truly horrifying, indeed,” Remus agrees, with a low growl but he automatically joins Severus in cleaning up. “See you tomorrow,” he smirks, giving Severus a little wink before exiting.

Stunned by Remus’s remarks Severus stands still for a few moments, blinking hard as he tries to make sense of what just happened. His heart pounds against his chest and he swipes his tongue across his lips deep in thought. Shrugging off the encounter he goes about his nightly routine but he can’t help it when a small smile creeps up on him when he returns to his chamber for the night.

~~~

Due to the Wolfsbane being such a precarious potion to brew, Remus and Severus meet every day after Friday evening for Severus to show Remus the next step in preparing the elixir. Remus always comes prepared, quill and parchment in hand as he plays the role of an observant student. Severus finds he much enjoys his puzzled looks and questions as it gives him a chance to speak about one of his passions.

Upon finding out about these lessons between Severus and Remus, Hazel has been begging her father to let her watch the two work on the potion together. Of course, Severus lets her attend some of the meetings as long as they won’t keep her out of bed after curfew. Hazel’s infatuation with the defense against the dark arts professor seems to be growing more with every class she attends, and much to Severus’s dismay, he finds himself slowly becoming enthralled with Remus as well.

The way his graying hair tumbles into his face as he peers into the cauldron with a dazed look, scratching his head for a moment before a rough hand sweeps the hair out of his face never fails to make Severus stop breathing for just a moment. His heart aches and flutters a bit faster in his chest when he observes how gentle and caring Remus is with his daughter, treating her as if she were his own. He’s kind and he listens to her, answering her questions about their defense against the dark arts lessons and he looks to Severus for help with any questions about the potion they are working on. Remus never fails to look her in the eyes, stoop down to her height to make her feel more included, and never raises his voice at her. Soon, butterflies begin to swarm in Severus’s stomach when those amber eyes with green in their depths find his own black orbs and linger there for just a moment too long. He does his best not to stare, but he often fails.

Soon the staring evolves into delicate touches while passing potion ingredients and feather-like touches on the arch of their backs as one of the men leans over the other to access the state of the potion. Their hands often pause and stop their movements when they collide, though it is never more than a few extra seconds every touch sparks a current through Severus that threatens to make him blush. If he weren’t such a skilled occlumens, he is sure he would have melted into a puddle on the floor by now due to the rising tension between the two.

This evening is no different; the two men are adding the final touches to the potion and because Hazel would not stop begging her dad to watch them complete the potion she is also present. With shaking hands Remus takes the last ingredient from Severus, their fingertips brushing against each other, and he adds it to the cauldron.

“My my Remus, it looks like you are not such an imbecile after all,” Snape says, letting out a low chuckle. “You can take a breath. Look.”

Remus lets out the breath he didn’t know he was holding and peers into the cauldron, sure enough, it is emitting the characteristic blue smoke indicating that it was brewed to perfection. “I guess I just had a very good teacher. This is all because of you, Sev.” Remus smiles and places a hand on Severus’s shoulder and gives it a squeeze.

Sev? Severus can’t help but blush, the nickname caught him off guard. “At this rate, you will be brewing the potion alone in no time,” he replies.

“I don’t know if I want to brew it alone, I’ve enjoyed spending time with you - and Hazel.” Remus leans down and ruffles the girl's hair, peering into her eyes and giving her a reassuring nod. “Hazel, you’ve been a great source of encouragement every time you’ve accompanied me and your father during these lessons,” he smiles.

“I’ve really learned a lot watching you two brew such a complicated potion!” Hazel exclaims, her eyes darting to her dad as if asking permission. At the nod of his head, she launches herself into Remus’s arms, giggling and smiling from ear to ear.

Acting upon instinct, Remus scoops the girl up and gives her a little spin before gently setting her back down on the ground. “You’re my little good luck charm, eh Hazel,” Remus grins, elbowing Severus, knocking him off balance and causing him to stumble a bit.

“Yeah!” Hazel happily agrees.

“Alright, you two! Enough playing around! Hazel, it’s time for you to head to your dorm.”

“Ugh, fine. Goodnight daddy! I love you!” Hazel says, giving her dad a hug and a kiss on the cheek. “See you later, Professor Lupin!”

“She is adorable,” Lupin mummers once she’s left the room.

Severus nods, his heart swelling with pride. “She is something,” he chuckles. “She’s so much like her mother,” he adds in a low voice as an afterthought.

Remus tenses at the mention of Hazel’s mother, curious to learn more about her but not sure what to say next. “Her mother… is she still in the picture?” he asks, hissing at how inconsiderate that could sound. He never knew Snape had been married, much less that he had a kid before this year when he returned to teach at Hogwarts. It had indeed been quite the surprise and no one had been willing to talk about the situation to fill him in on the details.

Snape shakes his head and begins fiddling with the skin on his thumb. “She passed away when Hazel was four. Her health deteriorated and no healer could figure out what was wrong. Eventually, she stopped fighting and decided to spend the time she had left with us,” he mumbled, wiping a tear away with the back of his hand. “It’s been really tough raising Hay alone. I’ve had Minerva’s help but still, I worry I haven’t been a good influence on her. I know I haven’t always been an admirable person and I’ve made sure to never hide my past from her. I just hope I have raised her well, that she learns from my own shortcomings, and that she doesn’t repeat her father’s mistakes.” Severus looks to the ground and rubs the back of his neck.

“Severus, I haven’t known your daughter long, but I can assure you that she is an exceptional young lady. She’s intelligent, caring, and loyal and I’d argue that she acquired all of those things from you. You are one of the most loyal and intelligent people I’ve ever met and behind that cold exterior, I know you are caring. I’ve seen the way you act around Hazel, you’re not the scary dungeon recluse everyone thinks you are.” Taking a half step closer to Severus, Remus places a hand on his shoulder. “Look at me, Sev,” he mummers.

Slowly Severus lifts his head and his eyes meet Remus’s.

“I haven’t always been the best person either. I’m sorry for how I let all that bullying slide while we were in school. I - I wish I had stood up to my friends. I wish I had - defended you. You didn’t deserve any of it and I hate that I can’t go back and change the past.” Slowly Remus snakes his hand up to Severus’s face and pushes a strand of his onyx hair back behind his ear before hastily shoving both of his hands into his pockets and stepping back, scared of how Severus will react to the bold gesture.

Severus simply nods not knowing what to say. “We both can’t change the past, we must simply live with it,” he finally says, with a shrug. “Hazel seems to have taken a liking to you.”

“It seems I’ve won over both Snape's, huh?” Remus taunts.

Severus’s cheeks begin burning and he feels his body temperature start to rise. “Who says I like you, Remus? No! I simply put up with you,” he scoffs.

“Of course,” Remus chuckles. “But I think that if you were just putting up with me I don’t think you’d let me do this.”

Four steps is all it takes for Remus to close the gap between him and Severus. It takes another moment for him to decide exactly what he is going to do, opening his arms wide and wrapping them around Severus in a tight embrace. Much to his surprise and delight, Severus embraces him as well, running a hand gently up and to the small of his back. The action sends a shiver up Remus’s spine.

The two men hold each other tightly for a few moments before simultaneously breaking apart. Severus’s obsidian eyes gaze into Remus’s amber eyes admiring their beauty, before darting off to the side. Severus has never been very comfortable with eye contact and right now all he wants to do is escape. He can’t believe he let himself be vulnerable with Remus Lupin of all people!

“Well, that does it for tonight. Here.” With a wave of his wand Severus removes the cauldron from the flame, cooling it down to room temperature with a blast of cold air. He places the lid on it and hands it to Remus. “You know the correct dosage I assume?”

“All too well, Severus.”

“Good. Take the first dose tonight. The full moon is just a week away.”
