Una nutria en una wed

i'm slowly forgetting your face (⁠๑⁠•⁠﹏⁠•⁠)

SNAPE (correcting homework): Luna Lovegood has once again submitted an essay written in invisible ink. I cannot grade what I cannot see.

SPROUT (frowning): Again?

SNAPE (dryly): Apparently, it’s an “exercise in intuitive perception.”

MCGONAGALL (sipping her tea, unfazed): You could always make up a grade. She likely wouldn’t notice the difference.

SNAPE: Unfortunately, I can’t write the mark she truly deserves on her forehead. I refuse to encourage fantasy—Potter handles that well enough without assistance.

MCGONAGALL (coolly): Say what you will, Severus. At least he turns in his homework.

SNAPE: Turns up where he shouldn’t. I could swear I saw him in the North Wing, the library, and inside a suit of armor—all within the same hour. Some ancient family skill, no doubt. Inherited from his father.

SLUGHORN (chuckling fondly): I quite like Harry. So much of James in that boy, Merlin keep him in glory.

SNAPE (bitterly): Is a moment of normalcy too much to ask? A modicum of order?

MCGONAGALL (arching a brow): You’re still sore about the Weasley twins and that biscuit, aren’t you?

SNAPE (sharply): Three days, Minerva. Three days of “Meow, Potions Master!” every time I opened my mouth.

MCGONAGALL (with a resigned sigh): Well, my office is now rigged to explode whenever someone says the word “grades,” so you’re not alone.

FLITWICK (cheerfully from his armchair): They gave me a bewitched origami frog today. It hops around my desk shouting, “Excellent work, Professor!” every thirty seconds.

SNAPE (Irritated): Why do they flatter you and mock me?

*entire Great Hall leans in closer*

Albus:... Let me copy his Charms homework.

*collective groan*

Thavma: You know, before your time, we used to kill tax collectors when they got too much

Billy: Taxes are like paying subscriptions to the country you live in.

Thavma: This server sucks. Everyone is acting aggressively. It used to be better. It was possible to kick the players out of life more often. Now new laws have been introduced and you can easily get a ban for several years.
