[HP] Can you be gentle with me

With a final wave to her brothers, Tahlia turned around and walked through the wall into the platform. When she looked up, she saw the familiar scarlet train. After looking around, she found the striking red hair and the train beside her. The dark-haired boy, she walked over quickly.

"Severus!"

Snape turned his head and saw that it was Tahlia, he was taken aback for a moment, then stepped forward slightly. "haven't seen you for a long time."

"Is there?" Tahlia said deliberately, remembering the last time he was sarcastic. "I remember that it's only...a little over a week since we last met?" As he said, he raised his chin slightly and raised his eyebrows, as if he was learning from Lucius.

"........."

A moment of silence.

"Haha, well, I won't bother you anymore." Tahlia laughed a few times, and to him, the joke must not be overdone.

She pushed the luggage forward, directed them onto the train with a floating spell, and turned back. "Severus, you won't get in the car?"

Snape nodded silently, and also pulled out his wand to get the luggage into the car. When he turned around and wanted to help Lily in the same way, he found that he had already followed him with the luggage as a matter of course.

In fact, although the Levitation Charm is not difficult for first-year students, it requires skill to use properly-such as handling such heavy suitcases, so most freshmen, no, even most senior students would still prefer to use more The traditional way ─ moving by labor. After all, if a suitcase is not handled well and falls on the ground, it is still good to have things scattered. If you accidentally hit yourself, the loss outweighs the gain.

Tahlia's decisive and direct use of the Levitation Charm was deliberate. She had to use practical actions to show other Slytherin students his ability. point performance.What surprised her was that Severus and Lily were also so proficient in using it, but after thinking about it, she was not so surprised, who said that the two of them are also very talented freshmen?Although she knew that Severus was not that prominent in Transfiguration, no one would deny that he was talented in other areas, and Lily was also almost all-round, and his performance in various subjects was also very eye-catching.

She smiled, and together with James and Sirius, I am afraid that the average level of this year's freshmen is much higher than usual.

"Hey! Tahlia!"

Just as he thought of the two of them, Sirius' voice came from a box next to him.

Tahlia looked inside and found that not only Sirius, but also James and others were sitting inside. She opened the door and let the luggage float directly onto the upper luggage rack. Snape and Lily behind them did the same.

"Long time no see, everyone." She smiled, noticing the haggard look on Remus's face at the moment, reminding her that the moon was full the other day. "Remus, thank you for the Christmas present!" She said, rummaging through the little bundle pockets in her robe to find a few small bags of chocolates, which were snacks that Remus ate when he came to play not long ago. , and handed it to him. "Here, last time you said super delicious chocolate."

As expected, Remus's face brightened a little, his eyes sparkled, and he almost snatched the bags of chocolates. "Thank you!" he said, opening the little bag and stuffing a few chocolates into his mouth.He was always uncomfortable after the full moon, and Tahlia's chocolate literally saved his life at this time.

Tahlia also took out candy and biscuits specially bought for other people one after another, including Snape's of course, but she hesitated when she took out the pack of biscuits, and Snape felt nervous for a while, as if he thought she wasn't going to give him any more. After thinking this way for a moment, his heart tightened for a while, and he was also angrily jealous of other people who received Tahlia's snacks, but luckily Tahlia finally gave out the packet of biscuits.

"Uh...Severus, I don't know your taste...so," Tahlia hesitated because she was afraid that Snape didn't like sweets, so she just refused and responded with some sarcasm. "I bought you some less sweet biscuits, uh...do you eat?"

"Eat." Snape replied immediately, as if to prove it, he opened the bag and took out a biscuit and stuffed it into his mouth.

In fact, he never said that he doesn't like sweets, but it seems that everyone automatically classifies him as the group who never touch sweets, and he doesn't want to admit to everyone that he has always wanted to try it.

Tahlia's eyes widened, surprised to see Snape swallow the biscuit right away, before grinning. "How?" she asked.

"……is acceptable."

"Glad you like it." Tahlia smiled, taking a seat next to Sirius.

Except for Lily, all the people on the side looked at the interaction between the two with astonishment. Why did they not see each other for such a short time, and the relationship between the two of them was completely reversed. Isn't this very peaceful?Even getting along... quite well?

I thought that the two of them would stay like that for a long time, presumably something happened when Tahlia went to Cokeworth, but seeing that Snape wouldn't target Tahlia from time to time, It was a good thing, even if Sirius was slightly displeased in his heart, he quickly accepted it.

Along the way, Snape sat quietly in a corner, and didn't particularly do anything to provoke James and Sirius, and the conversation with Tahlia was unusually free of sarcasm at all, but don't expect him to use The excited and excited tone of talking made them think that today's Snape probably failed the potion experiment, and his gentle behavior was a side effect... He even ate sweets!

Until the train arrived at Hogwarts, James and the others were still convinced that Snape's potion experiment had failed, but when they thought about it carefully, they seemed to have overlooked that Tahlia, who also got along well with Snape, was different from before. Maybe even Tahlia failed to make potions?

No, Sirius remembered that she had mentioned to him earlier that she was doing an experiment when she was so busy disappearing, maybe it was a potion experiment?Maybe it was with Snape then?Wait, then they're not as cold and indifferent to each other as they were at the time, are they... and no, that idea is quickly overturned, he knows that Snape was a nasty shrink when Tahlia disappeared Flipping through the potions book with gusto in an armchair, there was no way he'd been with Tahlia at the time, and while she hadn't mentioned that someone was with her, he'd been aware of it anyway.

He once followed Tahlia to the Room of Response out of curiosity, and saw that she opened the door and then stood there for a while and said something, which proved that someone had already stayed there first, and it was an agreement with her. It's good to enter the code, so she can talk to the people inside without being surprised.

So, who was she experimenting with?

Holding his forehead, he felt a throbbing pain in his head.

What's the matter, as long as Tahlia is involved, he will unconsciously think wildly, which is not like him at all. Although he was taught to think twice before acting, it is always beneficial to think more, but in private Sirius himself can Never eat that kind of thing, the rebellious blood in his bones is thinking about doing something big, thinking too much will make him indecisive and unable to accomplish anything, from the number of times he was yelled at by his mother since he was a child, it can be seen how thoroughly he has implemented this creed, But after meeting Tahlia, he always felt that he didn't dare to act too presumptuously in front of her, and always thought a lot. The only impulsiveness led to the first quarrel between her and Snape, which made him even more uncomfortable. Don't dare to think before speaking.

"Why are you in a daze?"

A pair of hands suddenly waved in front of his eyes, Sirius hurriedly came back to his senses, and saw Tahlia looking at him with some doubts.

"I've called you several times," she said.

"Oh, uh…" Sirius smiled awkwardly. "Just thinking about what food I'm going to have today... I'm hungry..."

Tahlia laughed. "I told you to have some snacks on the train, but you didn't listen..."

"Isn't it time for school?" Sirius said hastily. "Dinner is coming soon." Then, he said pretending to be serious. "Besides, it's not a good habit to have snacks before meals."

"...I always feel that it's weird to say this from your mouth." Tahlia looked at him with raised eyebrows.

"Tahliaaaaaa──" He felt that Tahlia must have been slightly infected with Snape's speech problems.

"But when did you start calling Snape's name?" Tahlia's change of address to Snape suddenly occurred to her.

"Oh, that," Tahlia replied, not seeming surprised he asked that. "Simply put, we have reached a new agreement..."

"What's the meaning?"

"Severus said something, I think it makes sense, and I agree."

Sirius felt that he didn't understand the explanation at all, and on the contrary, he didn't understand it even more, but realized that if he asked any more questions, he would only be more confused, so he closed his mouth and turned his mind to the food he was going to eat later Well, after saying that earlier, he was really hungry, maybe he should have followed Tahlia's advice and had a snack on the train first.

After the dinner, Sirius discovered that Snape, who never moved with them, actually came to Tahlia's side, and sometimes whispered to her in her ear, and from the upturn of Tahlia's mouth from time to time, it was completely possible to judge this. The content of the conversation between the two definitely made her feel happy.

The contrast between before and after is too much! Sirius walked aside, feeling a bit out of touch. Although he was very happy that the relationship between Tahlia and Snape had improved, he was always depressed in his heart. He couldn't really feel happy no matter what, and his face was unknowingly gloomy down.

"What's wrong with you?" When she turned her head and saw Sirius's uneasy expression, Tahlia was instantly frightened. In her memory, Sirius had never shown such an expression.

But Sirius didn't seem to respond to her yelling again, Tahlia was also a little anxious, and pushed him gently. "Sirius?"

Sirius felt himself being pushed lightly, turned his head a little confused, and saw that it was Tahlia, it seemed that she and Snape had come to an end. "What's wrong?"

"...Are you in a bad mood?" When Tahlia was in a bad mood in the past, Sirius was always the first to find out, and he always tried to help her solve the problem. Now it was his turn to be in a bad mood, and she felt that she had to help her He has to do something.

Only then did Sirius realize that he had just expressed a little bit of displeasure in his heart on his face, and quickly raised the corners of his mouth, smiled, and asked in a joking tone. "Just thinking about you talking to Snape until you got lost in the conversation..." he said, pressing his hands on his chest exaggeratedly. "It made me so sad..."

Snape gave a small, contemptuous laugh, and Sirius glared at him.

"...sorry," Tahlia said guiltily. "We were just discussing the characteristics of a medicinal material and the feasibility of improving the potion..." Noticing Sirius' confused expression immediately after hearing the potion, he shut his mouth quickly.

Sirius laughed a few times. It turned out that they were talking about potions. Among them, only Lily or Snape could do this. After thinking about it, most of the conversations between Tahlia and Snape were about magic potions. Potions, reluctantly admitted that Snape was indeed very good at potions, and completely surpassed Tahlia, who was already very good.

Sure enough, he thought too much...

Thinking of this, he naturally grinned.

Seeing that Sirius had returned to normal, Tahlia was also relieved. Just now she and Severus were indeed discussing the issue of the potion. It should be said that they were discussing the side effects of the wolfsbane potion. Snape also thought that the side effects of the wolfsbane potion were too Strong, it loses practicality at all, she took the opportunity to ask, if there is a chance, can this formula be improved, Snape thought for a while, and felt that the several herbs in the formula should have better applications, maybe they can be used to see Several other materials...

As soon as the topic of potions was mentioned, Snape talked more, and the two began to discuss the formula, and the way to improve it, etc. They decided to write out several more plans, and if they had the opportunity, they could go to the Room of Response Go and see for yourself.
