Summary: The signs of Potter's madness are so unusual that it takes Severus Snape a while to spot them.

 
Potter's Madness.

“Harry wants to have dinner with you at a perfectly respectable establishment. He's single, attractive, has financial independence and is genuinely kind. I don't understand your misgivings, Severus. It sounds perfectly harmless.”

“It's not harmless. It's... a date. He's talking about the most romantic wizarding restaurant there is, Poppy. He sent roses last week. And chocolates. I think he's trying to... woo... me.”

Poppy couldn't resist laughing.
“Merlin! You are slow, Severus.”

He gaped.
“You think Potter is...?”

“Smitten? Besotted? In love? Yes. I'd say he is.”

“He's mad, then.”

“Of course he's mad, Severus. But he's mad about... you.”

I think he's trying to... woo... me.
OMG lol! I can just hear the tone of voice. How unimaginable this idea is to him.

and Besotted! that is such a great word. I love when I see it used.

and I can't believe it took roses and chocolates before Severus realized Harry's intentions. For such an intelligent spy he's being a bit slow on the uptake!

LOL. True. I don't think poor Severus was expecting Poppy to agree with him on the point that Harry was trying to woo him. He's so unused to being pursued romantically that he simply missed every single sign... I'm sure Harry will soon fix his cluelessness with a giant-sized dose of good, old-fashioned, love... ;D

Thanks, as always, for your lovely comment, soleo. You know how much I enjoy chatting about the boys with you.

I agree with Poppy - Severus is slow, of course that Harry is trying to woo him. And please, Severus - maybe you are slow, but you are not stupid, so be mad, just like Harry is. Because love is a very good madness.
As always wonderful!

Hello there Myk! :D

Yes, Severus was being awfully slow in this one but, as you said, he isn't stupid. I'd like to imagine that he goes on that date with Harry and stays around long enough to discover that having the Boy Who Lived madly in love with him is precisely what he's always wanted... ;D

Thanks, as always, for taking the time to both read and review. Hearing from you never fails to make my day.

Awww! *pets Severus* There, there. You might as well just go out with him, Severus. He won't take no for an answer. And who knows? You might enjoy it... ;)
Very cute!

LOL. Yes. I think poor Severus needed that comforting petting to recover from the shock of having Poppy agree with the crazy idea that Harry Potter is trying to woo him...

I do hope that he goes on that date and discovers that he enjoys it. It'll save him a heap of trouble, since I agree with you on the point that Harry won't take 'no' for an answer. ;D

Thanks, as always, for your lovely comment, ali. I'm glad you found this cute.

LOL. Yes. I think Harry might just be the very best thing that has ever happened to Severus. ;)

I'm thrilled that you enjoyed this drabble, lily. Thanks for taking the time to both read and review. It was greatly appreciated. :)

I think not slow, more oblivious to his own charms :)

I think you are right about this. Severus is more oblivious than slow. Hopefully Harry will be given the chance to show Severus just how charming he finds him... ;D

I'm thrilled that you enjoyed this drabble. Thanks for taking the time to both read and review. Your lovely comment was greatly appreciated. :)

LOL, this was such a darling. It's so typical of Severus to see Harry's attempts to woo him as a madness or some psychiatric condition or whatnot. It really is a bit sad... but the hope for a future made it up for me XD.

Hello Agnes! :D

I agree with you on the point that Severus' disbelieving attitude here is a bit sad, in the sense that it shows just how insecure he is about his own charms. Hopefully Harry will be given the chance to show him that he is as worthy of being loved as any other man...

Thanks, as always, for taking the time to both read and review. Hearing from you is always lovely.
