[HP] look at you

On the first day of school, both Lily and Mary wore the dresses given by Olivia and brought the jewelry she made. The three little girls met happily at the train station, looking at each other with smiles.

"Hey, Ollie's dress is dark green."

"The earrings of lily of the valley are so pretty."

"It's all covered by hair, put your hair in the back."

They were chattering about each other's outfits, and the three beautiful and lovely girls stood next to each other like sisters, making the onlookers feel pleasing to the eye.

In this way, the only boy next to the three girls seemed a bit redundant.

Lily was a little surprised when she saw him: "Sev, aren't you at school?"

Snape was questioned.

In the past few days, things have been going on and on, and he is too busy to care about him. He didn't have time to tell Lily about his current situation, but now if he is asked to tell him, he also feels that his mind is full of upset, and he doesn't know how to talk about it.

When he first heard the news, he fell into ecstasy and wanted to share this feeling with Lily, but when troubles came one after another, he didn't think it was worth being happy, but felt that the burden on him was heavy some.

"Something happened to his grandfather's house, so he decided to go home temporarily." Olivia helped him out.

That's exactly what happened, albeit with a lot of important stuff cut out.Snape didn't refute either, acquiescing to her statement.

Lily glanced at the two of them, said "Oh", and changed the subject.

"The clothes on Sif are also a gift from Ollie." She couldn't help admiring after looking at them, "Ollie has a very good eye, which suits Sev very well."

The black and white shirt sweater is simple and clear, the dark khaki pants make his legs straight and slender, and the dark green scarf blocks his slightly sharp chin, making him look more peaceful.

The current Snape looked completely different from the malnourished, scruffy and embarrassed little boy he had been before.

Olivia also nodded affirmatively: "This is called turning decay into magic."

Snape squinted at her.

After returning to school, the students' lazy muscles and bones were quickly picked up by the school's professors, and various test reports came to them, making them realize clearly that the vacation is over.

Olivia was still in the same state as before, playing soy sauce in class, studying with Donan and Dumbledore after class, and spending her spare time in the library, watching her own things while making jokes with her three friends.

Life in the school is carefree. Although students will inevitably take sides because of their families, at least they don't have to worry about their own safety in the school, the Garden of Eden.

Snape was visibly nervous.As Olivia expected, more seniors greeted him in Slytherin, and even Lucius put his haughty eyes on him, smiling a little softer.

If it was before, he would definitely be flattered, but when he clearly knew what they were looking at, he only felt a chill running down his back.

So the other three could clearly feel that Snape was more serious than before.

Olivia remembered that she promised Snape that she would teach him the Fidelity Charm, but it was hard to find a place to learn it.Both the library and the Slytherin common room are crowded, empty classrooms are not always available, and secrecy is not good.She was the only one in her dormitory, but if someone saw her, she would say anything.

After thinking about it for a while, she quickly thought of a place that was very suitable for doing bad things.

Room of Requirement on the eighth floor.

Snape, who was completely used to night tours under Olivia's abduction, was also gradually getting used to all kinds of surprises and surprises Olivia brought him.

"Did you find out all the secret passages and chambers in Hogwarts?" Snape suspected that this was why she was wandering around the school every day before.

Olivia showed a mysterious smile of "you know, I know".

Although she knew this secret room by cheating a long time ago, she found many other unknown places under her carpet search, and many of them were hidden in the corners of Hogwarts during the friendship with the portraits. The anecdote of the story also reached her ears.

Well, this ability is definitely inherited from Evangeline.

Snape said slowly, "I have every reason to think that the Sorting Hat wanted to put you in Gryffindor." Only Gryffindor has boundless energy and curiosity about such things.

"Obviously your guess was wrong," Olivia said tactfully, "The Sorting Hat thinks that Ravenclaw prefers smart and studious wizards like me."

But she doesn't think she's right for Ravenclaw.Ravenclaw has an endless desire for knowledge, and she just wants to use knowledge to meet her own goals. She will only learn what she needs to use when she wants to do something, otherwise she will not care about those messy things interested.

Snape said indifferently, "That's why you get A every time in Astronomy and History of Magic?"

Olivia was confident: "That's why I always ask you to do my homework in Potions class."

Snape found that when two people bickered, the one who was more shameless always won.

The Fidelity Charm is a very profound spell, even beyond the learning scope of the seventh grade, and only a few adults know it.

During the learning process, Snape was very puzzled that Olivia could master this spell.He could feel that she possessed a magical power beyond her peers, and he also wanted it very much.

Sensing his probing gaze, Olivia thought for a while: "There are many things I can't tell you right now."

"There is no doubt about it." Snape lowered his eyes and said flatly, "Everyone has the right to keep their own secrets."

"I believe in you, but I'm not at ease here." Olivia pointed at his head, "You learn the Fidelity Curse first, and then I'll teach you Occlumency. When your mind is completely locked, I'll share those with you again—" She blinked her eyes, completely seeing through his awkward little mood, "Little secrets between friends."

Snape blushed.

He turned his face away: "Then quickly end these meaningless nonsense and start."

Snape was a student who would have given his teachers a sense of accomplishment.Smartness and hard work are one thing, the most important thing is that he knows how to think. Compared with the kind of idiot whose teacher says a word, he only moves once, or even moves incorrectly. His teacher takes one step, and he takes three steps. The practice is more reassuring.

He will think clearly about "what", "why", and "how to do" when he has doubts, and every time he asks a question, he will cut to the point concisely and clearly, without the need for the teacher to cut and break the lecture listen to him.

So Olivia didn't need to stare at him all the time while teaching him, and could take time to do something of her own.

Snape would also pick up the scattered pieces of paper to look at when he was resting. Many of the papers had exquisite pictures drawn on them. He could tell at a glance that they were realistic portraits of various places in Hogwarts.

There are even paintings of portraits in the corridors.

"Are you going to do the Hogwarts picture book?"

"more or less."

Olivia buried her head in a pile of experimental equipment, including gold, silver, copper, iron, mercury, and other magic materials, such as unicorn hair, phoenix tail feathers, and mermaid scales.She prepared a lot of blank notebooks that looked similar, and used those things to refine and engrave on them.

Every time she failed, a lot of materials were inevitably scrapped, but she didn't feel distressed or discouraged. She cleaned it up with a wave of her wand and continued to change methods.

She looked like she was enjoying it.Her obstructive black hair was tied into a ponytail and thrown behind her, a few strands of short hair curled quietly on her clean forehead, and lily-of-the-valley flowers on her earlobes were shiny and lustrous.The black eyes showed concentration and seriousness, just like every time she was distracted in class to look at the sky outside.

Snape didn't ask her what she was doing and continued with his practice.

More than a week after school started, Snape suddenly received a package.He looked startled when the owl dropped something on his lap during breakfast.

Olivia saw him staring at the beautifully packaged box like an enemy, and said amusedly, "It won't open itself even if you look at it."

As he spoke, he reached out and took the box.

Before Snape could stop it, he said angrily, "Stop it! You idiot! What if there's some kind of curse in it, or some kind of prank..."

His voice stopped abruptly when he saw the pair of high-end and exquisite dragon leather gloves.

"This package looks like it's from the Partridge's Crucible Shop in Diagon Alley. The prankster won't buy you an expensive gift on purpose." Olivia glanced at the card inside, was surprised, and then handed it over to Snape.

"Sorry, Severus, you didn't say it was your birthday."

"Birthday?" Snape himself was at a loss.

He looked at the handwriting on the card, it was written by Irene, wishing him a happy birthday.

Olivia looked at his complex expression, with various emotions surging and changing in his eyes, and finally snorted with a half-smile, and put the gloves back into the box.

She saw that he would not be able to accept this kind of strange care for a while, so she changed the subject: "Today is your birthday, do we want to have barbecue?"

"...what?" Snape couldn't keep up with her changing thoughts.

"Isn't this kind of cold winter the most suitable for watching the snow and eating barbecue?"

Olivia is a man of action, and Snape hasn't expressed her opinion yet. She has already folded two paper cranes and flew to Gryffindor, and wrote a note for the owl who delivered his letter to send it by the way. .

"Help me send it to Hagrid. His log cabin should be a good place for barbecue. By the way, let Quanquan prepare some ingredients. I don't know if there is venison in Hogwarts..."

Seeing her arrange the personnel, places and ingredients while she was talking, Snape, the birthday star, didn't even have time to intervene.He didn't know whether to admire her swift and thoughtful style of doing things, or remind her to ask his own and Hagrid's opinion anyway.

Apparently the three girls completely ignored Snape's will. When Olivia mentioned it, Lily and Mary responded enthusiastically. The three of them kept passing notes in Potions class that day, which was even worse than going home during the Christmas holiday. excited.

"Roast lamb……"

"... Chestnuts are very fragrant..."

"Can fruits be baked too?"

"..." Snape felt a hundred Gryffindors separated him from the three girls.

Olivia also found time to ask him: "What kind of meat do you prefer to eat? Beef tendon? Lamb skewers? Chicken legs? Chicken wings? Honey or chili sauce?"

Snape was actually hungry in his hands full of slug slime!

He tried his best to resist the urge to swallow, and gritted his teeth: "If you don't want both of us to be P in this class, please shut your mouth."

"Okay." Olivia shrugged her shoulders and shut her mouth, but she was planning to order more vegetables such as lettuce and celery, as well as shrimp and shells. Snape's partiality was too serious.

As soon as Slughorn announced that get out of class was dismissed, the four of them ran to the cabin on the edge of the Forbidden Forest.

Hagrid had been waiting in the house for a long time, and it seemed that he had cleaned the room on purpose. The fire was burning vigorously, and the grill sent by the circle had already been placed on it.

"Welcome to come!" Hagrid looked very happy, and moved tables and chairs for them graciously.

Because of his blood, he was not popular in school. After he was expelled from school, he lived alone in the cabin and the Forbidden Forest. He looked carefree, but he really hoped that some students would come to him to play. So far, except for Olivia and the others, almost no one is willing to come here.

Although Olivia and Snape were Slytherins, he didn't mind at all.

He took a handful of Peppermints out of his moleskin pocket, and everyone had a few in their hands, barely holding them in their hands.

"Thank you, Hagrid." Olivia happily tasted one, taking a breath stimulated by its cool taste, "This is suitable for eating after we finish roasting meat."

Hagrid smiled: "It's okay, I still have a lot."

A group of people sat around the fire, and they pulled Hagrid to sit together, which made him so excited that he couldn't help pinching his beard all the time.

But they didn't let Hagrid put things down. He was too big, and he would knock over the seasoning dishes if he was not careful.

The four little wizards hurriedly put their favorite food on the grill.

Olivia did a lot of this in her own manor, skillfully helping them to brush oil on the food and turning it over. Lily smeared her with honey if she liked sweet food, and Mary smeared her with black pepper sauce if she liked black pepper. Snape The taste was strong, so she sprinkled double the amount of cumin powder and chili powder, which made his face flushed and his eyes moist.

She also roasted a huge leg of lamb for Hagrid, running a knife across it so deeply that the marinade was roasted into it.

Hagrid ate a lot of beard grease, and kept telling them some anecdotes.He had stayed at Hogwarts for decades, and he himself liked to be in contact with those magical creatures. Although his eloquence was not very good, what he said still made them listen with gusto.

Olivia poured a glass of pear juice for each of them.

She also took the opportunity to stuff a handful of roasted celery into Snape's hand, and Snape stared at them as if he were staring at some kind of blood-clogging poison.

"Are you afraid of eating vegetables?" Olivia pretended to be surprised, and the expression on her face seemed to say, "You are actually picky eaters like a child?"

Snape took a deep breath and swallowed the celery like glass.

Olivia immediately stuffed him with a handful of roasted onions.

The expression on Snape's face was as ugly as ashes in a furnace.

He said every word: "Thank you! Let me do it myself!"

"It's your birthday today, of course I want to serve you." Olivia pretended not to understand, and stuffed the meat wrapped with lettuce into his mouth.

When Lily and Mary heard what she said, they hurriedly handed him the grilled shrimp and mushrooms they had baked, with eager expressions on their faces.

"Eat, Severus, eat more."

Snape watched in agony as the large piece of beef on the grill was given to Hagrid by Olivia, and Hagrid swallowed it in one gulp.

How could this half-giant not be scalded to death?He nibbled on a vegetable leaf and thought darkly.

Olivia felt that he was biting his cheek angrily like a hamster, so cute that people couldn't help but want to poke him.

After eating and drinking enough to pack up, the four of them walked back to the castle on the snow with a smell of oily smoke all over their bodies. They also played a childish game of snowballs along the way. They were covered in snow on the stairs on the first floor. They parted ways and went back to their dormitories.

Walking to the Slytherin lounge, Olivia called to stop Snape who was about to go to the boys' dormitory.

"You wait here first."

She trotted back to her room, took the things and ran back quickly, panting for him.

Snape looked oddly at the paper in his hand - a blank, featureless piece of parchment.

"You want me to write a dissertation on it?" was all Snape thought.

"I don't mind if you want." Olivia smiled slyly and triumphantly, took out her wand and tapped it on the white paper.

"Happy birthday Severus Snape," she said softly.

After the sentence was finished, a bright light flashed across the white paper, and then a figure appeared out of thin air above the white paper.

It was Snape.

Snape in the air half lowered his head, stirring the potion brewing in front of him, looking very attentive.

It was obvious that it was drawn, but it was three-dimensionally and clearly projected in mid-air, and every movement and expression was very lifelike and natural, as if Snape was really standing there.

Olivia smiled at Snape who was stunned: "The small results I have researched during this time, I will give it to you first. Happy birthday to you."

Snape pursed his lips and looked up at the smiling Olivia.

"Thank you." He said slowly and lowly.
