Mutually Assured Passion.

“So there I was, patrolling the dungeons at night, minding my own business, when an exhausted Snape exits his lab and casts Finite on his head.”

Ron goggles. “Was he wearing a glamour? Is he bald?”

“Neither. Potioneers’ standard head-shield, apparently. He’s got gorgeous shampoo hair.”

“Snape’s got shampoo hair.”

“Yep. ”

“Like the poncy bloke with the funny face on the Sleekeazy’s bottle?”

Harry laughs. “That’s not a funny face, Ron. It’s a smolder. It’s supposed to be sexy.”

“It’s stupid.”

“Hmmm.”

“Does he know?”

“Who?”

“Snape. Does he know you’ve got— hair-passion?”

“It’s not hair-passion, Ron. It's Snape-passion.”

 

 

“Tell him, then. He’s over by the bar. Buy him a pint or something.”

“I can’t.”

“Why not?”

“Because he thinks I’m a moron, Ron.”

“Snape thinks everyone is a moron.”

“Humf!”

“You could make the funny face at him.”

“The smolder? No way. He’ll hex me.”

“Why? Having Snape-passion isn’t a crime, Harry.”

“Snape hates me. He’ll be disgusted that I want to paw his gorgeous hair and live with him in mushy, romantic bliss happily-ever-after.”

“You’re wrong.”

“Am not.”

“Are too.”

“Why?”

“Because you shouted the happily-ever-after bit and now he’s looking over with— Yep. That’s definitely Harry-passion.”

Lovely :)

I'm thrilled that you found this drabble so lovely, eriador117. Thanks for taking the time to both read and review it. Your kind and lovely comment was greatly appreciated. :)

lol Go supportive Ron.

“Because he thinks I’m a moron, Ron.”
“Snape thinks everyone is a moron.”
lol So true.

Love the idea that Snape has something on his hair that he takes off when not working, but no one knows because he knows he's awesome, and doesn't want all the students to mack on him.

I'm thrilled that you enjoyed supportive!Ron so much and that the snippet about how Severus thinks everyone is a moron struck you as IC.

LOL. Yes, I too love the idea of a Severus Snape who happens to be secretly gorgeous and knows it. Now that Harry also knows it, the cat is out of the bag though, since there's no way Severus will ever manage to keep news of his gorgeous, Savior-seducing hair hitting the Prophet no matter how many pottioneer's standard head-shields he casts on himself. Thanks so much for taking the time to both read and review this drabble, ada. Your kind and lovely comment meant the world to me. :)

Oh I love it! Our two heroes are mutually passionate - and idiots (or morons? idiotic morons?) I'm especially happy with Ron in this one: his comments are the icing on the cake. ^^
Snape’s got shampoo hair.
This sound dry as Sahara dust. I can even see Ron's face - a mixture of disbelief and deadpan. He probably wears this expression a lot during their talk here (intermixed with a few grins, hidden teasing and twinkling eyes). He's such a good and clever friend, coaxing Harry into giving into his passion. I'm sure he'll even manage to surprise Severus and become a good friend to him, too.

My dear friend, thank you so much for this happy, funny double-drabble. It makes me even more happy that you gifted to me this story about friendship, support, passion, and love.

[pekeleke]

LOL. Yes, the boys were very obtuse in this one. Thank Merlin for Ron! ;)
I'm thrilled that you enjoyed watching him in a supportive role for once and that you could visualize both his tone and facial expresion from the words he spoke. :)

I'm glad you enjoyed your birthday present so much, teryarel. I hope you had a glorious day in the company of your family and friends.

Hugs

Ahahaha! Oops.
Well, something will definitely happen now. *g*
Have courage, Harry!

[pekeleke]

LOL. Oops indeed! ;D You're right of course, something will have to happen now that Severus has irrefutable proof of Harry's interest. I'm sure Harry will be delighted with his immediate future. :)

I'm thrilled that this little drabble made you smile, ali. Thanks, as always, for your kind and lovely comment. :)

Wow that was very mature of your Ron! Nom nom nom! Snape!Hair. lol

[pekeleke]

I'm thrilled that you found Ron's attitude so mature in this drabble. And yes, the idea that Snape's hair is really that fabulous had me in stitches while I was writing this, so I'm glad it made you laugh, keyairreem. Thanks, as always, for your kind and lovely comment.
