Written for: hogwarts365 Prompt #82-“What would Severus Snape say?”; Merlin; Pictures

Notes: Ron/Draco preslash with a side of Harry/Severus. I blame the prompts. First time writing Harry/Severus, so I’m sorry if it’s awful, but this scenario just took shape as I was writing, and it just seems to fit in this context. I had intended to write H/D but these fellows had other ideas. Please do enjoy! Sequel: Commiseration

Summary: Ron and Draco are both in denial.

Denial

“Merlin! Am I hallucinating? I never thought I’d see the day a Weasley voluntarily took a Potions course.”

“It’s a requirement for my latest assignment, Malfoy.”

“And suddenly the world makes sense again.”

“Why are you here? I thought you got a Potions NEWT at Hogwarts. Or did you simply come to lord your superiority over the common folk?”

“This is a required course for my mastery in Potions, Weaselbee. I’m a student, just as you are.”

“That almost sounded human, Malfoy. Are you actually here as a student?”

“What reason would I have to lie about that, Weasley?”

“You’re a Slytherin. Who knows why you lot do anything?”

“I’m quite disappointed in you, Weasley. Still judging on House characteristics? We’re well out of Hogwarts. What would Severus Snape say?”

“I would say that some people seem content to remain the same dunderheads they were when I taught in Hogwarts, and that, in the case of Mr. Weasley, that circumstance seems highly unlikely to change in the near future. You must help him, Mr. Malfoy.”

“It would be my pleasure, sir.”

“Very well.”

“Wait! Can’t I have a say in this?! I’d rather work with Harry.”

“Mr. Potter is not taking this course. He has instead elected to take private instruction . He prefers the individual attention, and I agreed it would be more beneficial than a classroom setting.”

“I’ll bet you did. Harry just wants to spend time alone with you. He’s not been himself since he started seeing you.”

“Severus, you’re seeing Potter? How is it that I didn’t know this?”

“I am not required to draw you detailed pictures of my personal activities.”

“Thank goodness ! The thought of what you and Harry get up to makes me sick.”

“I must agree with Weasley regarding your relationship with Potter.”

“Jealousy is a most unbecoming emotion, gentleman. We will now proceed with instruction.”

“We’re not jealous!”

“You seem to have forgotten that I am an accomplished Legilimens.”

“Are we or are we not here to learn Potions?”

“Yeah! We need this for our careers, Snape.”

“It would behoove both of you not to malign my intelligence. ”

“You’re mistaken, Severus.”

“We shall see.”

Heh, oh, would you look at those two adorable dorks, looking for excuses to be around each other. Well, I guess that attraction phase, without declaring your feelings is very enticing - not to mention exciting. *ah... sighs nostalgically, I've been in a relationship way too long ;)*
It's cute how you write them, coming up with most impossible designs to see each other, it makes me giggle and go "Oh, for the love of good, how old are you? 12? You could be screwing like rabbits by now!" :D I guess the notion of a Malfoy liking a Weasley and the other way around is a bit of a mouthful to swallow. *R/D plot bunnies, you did well, here's your carrot! ;)*

You see what you started? Now they won't get out of my head! Not that I mind. I actually rather enjoy getting the two of them together. I have a feeling this will be one of the ones that takes on a mind of its own, so I hope you don't mind getting more R/D in the future. lol

Oh, you don't have to tell me how addictive those two are! I started lurking about the fandom as a Ron/Harry shipper, but once I read a few R/D fics, I kind of changed my mind... :) I still like R/H, don't get me wrong, but I just like the dynamics between the fire and ice better.
Mind?! Who in their right mind would "mind" getting a fresh and free supply of Ron/Draco!? :D *me is jumping excitedly on my chair against a suspicious look of the co-worker*
I hope the plot bunnies are plenty and they ambush you from every corner when it comes to this pairing! :D
Hugs, you just kind of made my pretty shitty beginning of the week better?! (I actually over-slept, imagine that, and won't be home again util 9 PM - some cloning over here, please!)

Plot bunnies are definitely nibbling! I think you can expect something somewhat soon, if those snarky boys wlll cooperate at all. I hope you have a better day tomorrow. *offers chocolate and hugs*
