Severus Snape Oneshots

Poe

"What the hell is that?"

........

"It's a cat?"

"No, I- I recognize what it- where the hell did you get this thing from?"

"I found it outside The Leaky Cauldron. Poor thing was sitting in a box, hiding from the snow!"

"You cannot keep him."

"I know.... That's why I am giving him to you."

"No. Absolutely not."

"Professor, please? He's got nowhere to go!"

"He does, actually- back in the box. I expect that you'll return him by nightfall."

"It's so cold outside, though! That's so cruel!"

"He survived out there long enough. Nothing will change my mind."

"....."

"No."

"....."

"No puppy eyes..."

"......"

"......."

"......."

"....Fine."

"Great! I conjured up a collar and his name is officially yours to choose!"

"You knew I'd give in."

"Yeah."

"...."

"So whaddya gonna call him?"

Severus takes the black cat from your arms, holding it up simba-style, facing towards him.

He narrows his eyes at the innocent and unknowing kitten.

A long pause

"Poe." The man replies.

"After Edgar Allen Poe?"

"Exactly."

"Great, I gotta go now, thanks!"

-

"What am I gonna do with you?..."

"*meow*"

"Hm.."
