I'm playing a big knife at HP

The summer vacation is coming to an end when everyone in the British wizarding world is in danger, and members of the Order of the Phoenix are constantly fighting.The closer to the start of school, the more Marciana worried about her comrades in the Order of the Phoenix.Although no one in the Order of the Phoenix was lucky enough to die this summer, the situation is becoming more and more tense every day.When she returned to Hogwarts, Tonks was stationed at Hogsmeade to protect Harry. It was relatively safe, but the comrades outside were still in danger all the time, and it was even more dangerous because of their absence.Marciana told Emmeline Vance to go out of the field as little as possible - her combat effectiveness was mediocre, and she was almost in danger in the last Downing Street incident. If Marciana hadn't lured the Death Eaters away, she would have been in danger. .She was also very worried about Sirius and Moody, and followed them for two days, repeatedly playing safety messages such as 'Don't underestimate the enemy, be careful and cautious'.

Moody ended up almost chasing her back to Hogwarts with his cane.

At the opening dinner, Marciana finally met Professor Slughorn, whom she had not seen for more than ten years.The old man is even more potbellied than before, at least he is at least ten years old. Judging from his figure, his appetite is still the same as before.Slughorn was an old man, and all the staff except Dumbledore had been his students, so as soon as he entered the lobby, the professors all stood up to greet him.Slughorn chuckled and waved his hands for everyone to sit down.Dumbledore came over to shake his hand. "Horace, it's good to see you again. The journey went well?"

Slughorn greeted Dumbledore with a smile on his face, shook hands with Professor McGonagall and several old colleagues one by one, then turned around and patted Snape on the back: "Oh, Severus, back then You are one of the smartest students I have ever taught, I have always said that you are a born Slytherin, and as expected, you are now the dean, you will be feared by future generations, you will be feared by future generations!"

Snape looked like he was trying to force a social smile, but his business was rusty, and the expression on his face was a little stiff at the end.

Marciana lowered her eyes and licked the corners of her mouth quietly.Slughorn noticed her hiding behind Snape, and spread his hands happily: "Oh! Look who is my youngest colleague, Martha!" He enthusiastically extended his right hand, Marciana Smiling and holding it, "You still remember me."

"Of course I do! When you were a kid, you were such a smart little kid," Slughorn laughed. "I've always said you were like your father, but your brains were like your mother. They were my favorites back then." students, unfortunately none of them are Slytherins."

He seemed to be thinking of the fate of these two juniors, with a sad smile on his face, and then he patted her arm lovingly, "Look at you, you have grown into an outstanding witch. She is also as lovely as your mother." , your eyes look exactly alike."

Marciana couldn't help being a little happy.Her black hair and wheat-colored skin follow her father's, and few people say she looks like her mother.Since she lost her family, people rarely mention her parents in front of her out of consideration.These few words hit her weak spot, so even though Marciana knew Slughorn well and sophisticated, after listening to his words, she still couldn't help feeling a little sincerely close.

The professors sat down one after another, and Dumbledore invited Professor Slughorn to sit on his right. The two chatted very cordially, while Marciana and Snape sat in the outermost seats as usual.Marciana turned her eyes around the long table in Gryffindor, and found that most people had already taken their seats, including Ron and Hermione, but Harry, who was inseparable from them, did not know where.She and Snape glanced at each other, and Snape quickly glanced at the Slytherin table, and saw Draco sitting down with a few of his friends, with a smug smile on his face and malicious eyes from time to time Glancing in the direction of Gryffindor.

Snape looked away, raised an eyebrow, and winked at Marciana: Well, it must have been done by Draco.

Marciana shrugged.Well, anyway, with the Aurors like Tonks outside, as long as it wasn't a premeditated attack by the Death Eaters, there was nothing to worry about.Sure enough, not long after, a vague four-legged silver animal came to Marciana, and Tonks' voice came: "Martha, I found Harry, come and open the door for him." .”

Snape looked over inquiringly, and Marciana stood up: "Tonks found Harry, they will be outside the school gate soon, I'll go pick him up."

Snape also stood up: "I'll go with you."

She was a little surprised, after all, Snape always believed that Harry should not get too much special treatment, and the fact that two professors went to pick him up was definitely considered too much courtesy by Snape's definition.What's more, the dinner party had already started at this time, and Snape hadn't eaten a few mouthfuls yet.Marciana felt strange and a little pleased, and walked out with him.

In the night, Snape was holding an orange lantern, and walked side by side with Marciana on the path leading to the school gate.I don't know if he was afraid that the lantern would shake or something, but he didn't walk fast, at least a lot slower than usual.He turned his head and glanced at half of her face illuminated by the warm light: "It seems that Tonks really likes Lupine."

Marciana immediately got excited: "Isn't it! I'm dying of anxiety for this couple."

Snape snorted, "You actually fell in love with Lupine, what a disgrace."

Marciana was a bit unconvinced: "What's wrong with Lupin? Besides, in your opinion, who is it not bad to look at?"

Snape sneered, "Tonks won't be depressed all summer if his eyesight isn't bad. Lupine is avoiding her now, tsk, this outright hypocrite."

Snape is well-informed and has a vicious vision, but he has always been a person who sees more and talks less.Now that this person finally had the desire to speak ill of others behind his back, Marciana decided to seize the opportunity of gossip, so she asked very curiously: "What does the hypocrite say?"

"Isn't it? Lupine has been like this since he was at Hogwarts. He obviously wanted something that was offered to him by others, but he had to refuse it again and again, and finally he reluctantly accepted it. A 'Yes You must give it to me, and you don’t cherish it when you get it. Think about it, what did he have to fight for? Tsk, what about Gryffindor, who doesn’t even have the courage to admit his desire.”

Marciana deliberately ignored his last sentence: "Why do I think you mean something? He doesn't cherish anything?"

"A lot! The opportunity to study at Hogwarts was opened by Dumbledore with his own reputation. As a result, he followed those friends all day long to violate school rules. Dumbledore asked him to be Gryffindor's As a result, he indulged Black and Potter Hulai again and again, and failed to fulfill his responsibility. He didn’t make any progress when he grew up. Dumbledore gave him a job opportunity, and I made him medicine every month, but he didn’t even take the medicine on time. Can't do it. And now, he obviously likes Tonks, but he sees her heartbroken, and he is immersed in what he thinks is a great sacrifice. Lupine is best at putting on a grateful look, doing it That's not the case at all. I'd call him a hypocrite for all kindness."

Marciana smiled and shook her head: "When it comes to being cynical and exposing people's shortcomings, you are the number one." She paused and said in a very casual tone, "I'm a little curious about how you criticize me in your heart. "

Snape snorted again, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth: "At least I'm not hypocritical—well, I'm not hypocritical except when necessary." He looked back at her again, "Don't be curious , I have said all my criticisms of you in front of you in my heart. As for Lupine, there are so many people who take care of him and present opportunities to him, and he still looks half-dead all day long. I can't stand him the most."

Marciana turned her face to stare at his face and smiled: "I thought you couldn't understand him because you hated him for hurting you back then."

"Oh that thing. I was slapped by the enemy back then, and I admit it. But Lupine, heh, he was slapped by his most trusted friend." Snape sneered, "I pity him. More than hating him."

Marciana lowered her head and thought for a while: "You and Remus have very different personalities, so it's not surprising that you can't understand his way of doing things. I think the reason why Remus is a little passive in doing things is because he grew up Big, he was rejected too much and had too little."

Snape was stunned for a moment. He wanted to refute that he also had experience of being rejected and denied, and that he grew up in poverty.

Marciana continued: "You think he doesn't cherish the opportunity, but think about it, as a child with good magical talent, it is his right to go to Hogwarts to study, and he is not the only one who violated school rules when he was studying. One, why do you think he is not qualified to do this? It was Albus who chose Remus back then. Considering Remus' performance, isn't he worthy of being a prefect? ​​Tonks and him like each other, can't it be Does he have to accept her wishes? People who like each other often cannot be together for various reasons, and it is his freedom to associate with her. Men and women are equally entitled to reject the pursuit of the opposite sex."

Snape's eyebrows were raised almost to his hairline, and he could see that a word of disapproval was about to be blurted out.

Marciana smiled: "You think his behavior is especially unacceptable because he is a werewolf, and you think he is unworthy. You and Remus actually have the same idea, that is, he should be responsible for these things for ordinary wizards. You are very grateful for the most common things. The inconsistency between you is that you think he should seize the opportunity to change his situation; while he is unwilling to accept the care of others easily, and would rather bear his own suffering alone."

Snape stopped in his tracks, and there was a moment of astonishment on his face, but he quickly said, "But werewolves are indeed a threat to those around them."

Marciana lowered her eyes and said softly, "I just want to say that I think Remus has a reason for doing this. He's used to being rejected, and maybe he's not good at hope anymore."

"Okay." Marciana heard some reluctance from the people around her, and looked up just in time to see a smile, "But I won't be polite to Lupin because of this."

She also couldn't help laughing: "Remus is not Neville, he is so big, he may not be afraid of your eyes."

In the darkness, the torches and wild boar statues at the school gate, as well as Nymphadora Tonks outside the gate could be vaguely seen.A boy suddenly appeared beside her, it was Harry who lifted the cloak of invisibility.

Marciana looked at Tonks' short gray hair and asked lovingly, "How are you doing?"

A wry smile appeared on Tonks' serious face.

As soon as Snape saw Harry, he immediately switched to combat mode, regardless of the two witches who were head-to-head whispering, sneered, drew out his wand, knocked on the lock and opened the door: "Very good, very good, very good. You Showed up at last, Potter, though you evidently think wearing school robes would spoil your looks."

"I can't change my clothes, my suitcase—" Harry was interrupted by Snape, "what gave you the illusion that I cared about such boring details?"

He took a quick look at Marciana—well, she was too busy comforting Tonks to pay attention—and Snape said very quickly, "Gryffindor deducted five for being late." Ten points. And, let me see, twenty points off for wearing Muggle clothes."

"What?!" Harry couldn't help but yelled.Marciana finally noticed the movement here and looked over, but it was a done deal.

Snape abused his position as a professor to bully the big and the small. Not only did he not reflect on himself, but he prodded Harry in a low voice triumphantly: "I don't think there is any college that has just started the semester - the dessert has not been served - and deducted points. Well. You've probably set a record, Potter."

Harry was once again shocked by the eccentricity of the person in front of him, and there was real anger shooting out of his green eyes.

Marciana squinted her eyes and walked over: "I heard Dora say that it was Draco Malfoy. Dean, it's not fair to deduct points from Gryffindor for being late, right?" She threatened Lowering his voice, "I mean, I can also deduct fifty points from Slytherin - or let's not make it so bad for both sides as soon as school starts."

Snape knew that Draco was definitely not wronged. After thinking about it, Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff could not be taken advantage of, so he gave Harry a vicious look: "Okay. The fifty cents from Gryffindor Forget it, because Potter's lateness is unavoidable."

The three of them walked towards the castle, and Marciana noticed that Harry was shivering from the cold—he was still wearing Muggle clothes, but now it was night and the wind was blowing again, much colder than during the day.She cast a warming spell on him, and then conjured up a warm wet handkerchief and handed it to him: "Wipe the blood on your face."

Harry gave an uncomfortable smile, "Thanks."

Snape looked very dissatisfied, and sneered: "Why bother, didn't that look more eye-catching just now? Potter, I guess you want to make a debut? You can't get a flying car, so you think you are in Storming into the auditorium in the middle of a banquet can also have dramatic effect."

Marciana almost laughed at Snape's childishness.She knew that Snape hated Harry for being disobedient and that he had put several people in danger for him at the end of last term, but could provoking him like this make Harry's concentration better?

The dignified Voldemort's confidant took pleasure in showing off his tongue in front of Harry and fighting with children every day, but he was not demoted and fired just like that, which shows what kind of stuff Voldemort's subordinates are.

Marciana felt that Voldemort was actually not easy.

Snape found Marciana looking at him with complicated eyes, curled his lips and snorted.But during the rest of the journey, he really didn't provoke Harry again.

They returned to the Great Hall, Harry sneaked back to the long Gryffindor table, while Snape and Marciana returned to the teacher's table, grabbing some food before the dinner was over.Marciana was thinking that today the potatoes should be more browned and crispy, when the main meal disappeared on the plate, and the dessert was brought up.Marciana stuffed the roast chicken into her mouth in a hurry, while listening to Dumbledore: "... This year, we are very happy to welcome a new teacher. Professor Slughorn, my former teacher A colleague, he agreed to return to his old job as Potions teacher."

Marciana quickly swallowed the chicken and applauded with her colleagues.

The applause was sparse—the students were so shocked that their whispers were louder than the applause.

Dumbledore raised his voice: "At the same time, Professor Snape will be the teacher of Defense Against the Dark Arts."

There was a moment of silence in the auditorium, only Harry shouted loudly "No!", which was clearly heard throughout the auditorium.All the students from the fourth courtyard looked at Harry, with sympathy for a student who was about to be revenged to death by Head Slytherin.

Then a huge discussion erupted.

Snape ignored Harry for now, and only raised a hand lazily to indicate that he heard the applause from the Slytherin table.

Marciana rested her chin on one hand, turned her face to look at his self-satisfied self-satisfaction, and tried to pretend not to care.She really knows how to pretend, and the corners of her mouth can't help but curl up.She guessed that [-]% of his pride was due to the support of the young Slytherins.

Among other things, those children were devoted to him.Her eyes flicked to Draco Malfoy, who was clapping vigorously with a faint smile, and lowered her eyelashes—whether this kid was worth Snape's brains to protect, at least he wasn't completely heartless.She looked at the small faces on the long table in Slytherin. Although the faces of their students from the other three houses were full of doubts, surprises, and even worried and angry expressions, they were eager and proud, just because Their dean got his wish.She knew that no matter how cold a professor Snape seemed, he was not indifferent to the Slytherin children.Marciana's eyes flicked to Vincent Crabbe, Gregory Goyle, Theodore Nott, Draco Malfoy, whose fathers were all serving Lord Voldemort, and they all felt Snape was on the side of their parents.

Marciana took one last look at the faint smile on Snape's lips, and lowered her eyes.The cruelty of the job of a double agent is not only the dangers you face all the time.

The author has something to say: the title is based on a youth school comedy that I like very much "Ten Things I Hate About You" haha.Heath Ledger was so cute back then.

The second update is still being repaired and will be released later.
