I don't know what I was on but okay

"I believe I gave you detention for slacking off in class, correct?" "He drawls on, his voice sounding uninterested." "Sit down and begin scrubbing cauldrons. After you finish cleaning them all you may return to your dorm." "He pays you no mind and begins grading papers on his desk."

"Professor Snape looks up from his grading and observes you quietly for a moment before speaking" "Make sure to scrub every inch of the cauldron, aqu. I won't accept anything less than perfection." "He returns his attention to the papers on his desk."

"Professor Snape narrows his eyes at you, sensing your lack of respect." "Is there a problem, aqu? I suggest you give your full attention to this task before you find yourself with another detention." "He goes back to grading the papers, signaling that the conversation is over."

"Professor Snape raises an eyebrow at your tone, but decides not to comment on it. He continues to grade papers in silence while you clean the cauldrons."

"As you scrub the cauldrons, Professor Snape watches you closely, his eyes narrowed and piercing. After some time passes, he speaks up." "Your technique needs improvement, aqu. You're not using enough elbow grease. Focus on the areas where the residue tends to accumulate." "He observes you again before returning to his grading."

"Perhaps not, but it is essential to ensure that you perfect even the most mundane tasks. You are learning valuable skills here, aqu. The importance of attention to detail should not be underestimated." "He pauses" "Besides, who knows what the future holds for you? You may end up utilizing these skills more than you think." "He resumes his grading, leaving room for you to think about his statement."

"Professor Snape tilts his head towards you upon hearing your muttered words. He raises an eyebrow but makes no comment, letting the matter drop."

"Professor Snape seems to be concentrating on his grading, but you can tell that he's aware of the thoughts running through your mind. He looks up at you and gives you a slight smirk before returning to his papers."

"Professor Snape notices a change in your body language and as if he can read your thoughts, he turns around and meets your gaze with a smirk on his face. He speaks in a low and seductive voice" "My eyes are up here, aqu. Unless you'd like to see them somewhere else?" "He raises an eyebrow, teasing you."

"Professor Snape is amused by your response. He dislikes showing any form of kindness to his students but he can't help but feel a small urge to make you feel better. He stands up, walks towards you and speaks in a low and calming voice." "There is no need to be embarrassed, aqu. Although I must remind you that such thoughts regarding your professor are inappropriate. You should focus on your studies and maintain a respectful distance." "He places a hand on your shoulder for a moment, before letting it go and returning to his grading, leaving you with your thoughts."

"As you continue to scrub the cauldrons, Professor Snape looks over at you, sensing that you're deep in thought." "Is anything troubling you, aqu?" he asks, looking at you sharply. "It will do you no good to let your mind wander during your detention. Focus on your task." "With that, he returns to his grading, leaving you alone to clean the cauldrons again."

"Professor Snape keeps a close eye on you as you scrub the cauldrons, occasionally offering tips on how to improve your technique. After a while, he speaks up again." "You appear to be making progress, aqu. Keep up the good work." "He nods at you before returning to his grading."

"After a while, Professor Snape finishes grading his papers and stands up to leave. He looks at you for a moment before speaking." "Remember, aqu, your grades are a reflection of your efforts. You should strive for excellence in all that you do, even if it is a task as mundane as cleaning cauldrons." "With that, he turns around and heads towards the door."

"Professor Snape smirks at your remark before turning back to the door." "Your thoughts are your own, but they reveal much about your intentions and priorities. Nonetheless, my advice stands." "With that, he leaves the room, closing the door behind him."

"Professor Snape seems to sense your frustration as he exits the room. However, he makes no further comment and closes the door behind him. You are left alone in the quiet room with your thoughts."

"As you continue to work, your thoughts start to race and panic sets in. You feel overwhelmed by the situation and your surroundings, but you can't quite put your finger on why. Suddenly, you hear a faint rustling from the shadows. Your heart rate increases and your palms start to sweat. You try to take deep breaths to calm yourself down, but it seems like your nerves are on edge."

*Looking into the shadows, you see a figure moving eerily close to the wall. You can't quite make out their features but something about them seems off. They seem to be watching you intently. Your heart races as you try to comprehend what is happening. What do you do?

"As you ask who they are, the figure steps out of the shadows, revealing themselves to be Professor Snape. He looks at you with an expressionless face for a moment before speaking in a low and steady voice." "I'm sorry to have alarmed you, aqu. It was not my intention. I was merely keeping an eye on your progress." "With that, he turns around and heads towards his desk, leaving you alone with your thoughts."

"Professor Snape responds with a sarcastic tone." "Very well, I shall make a point to announce my presence next time." "He pauses for a moment before adding, still in the same sarcastic tone." "If there is a next time." "As he says this, he goes back to grading his papers, leaving you to finish your task of cleaning cauldrons alone."

"Professor Snape notices that you appear to be struggling with the task at hand and speaks up once more." "Are you feeling quite alright, aqu? Your movements seem rather sluggish. Perhaps you require a break." "He studies you for a moment before continuing." "Detention is meant to be a punishment, not torture. If you are feeling unwell, you may leave early."

"Very well, aqu," Professor Snape responds to your reply. "I shall trust that you know your own limits." He continues grading the papers on his desk, appearing to be deep in thought. The silence in the room is palpable and is only broken by the occasional sound of splashing water.

As you finish scrubbing the last cauldron, Professor Snape looks up from his papers and notices your dazed expression. He raises an eyebrow before speaking in his usual drawl, his voice sending shivers down your spine. "Is there something on your mind, aqu?" he asks. The way he looks at you seems to suggest that he knows what has been going through your head, making you feel even more flustered.

Professor Snape arches an eyebrow in response, but doesn't say anything. He regards you with a cool expression before returning to his papers, leaving you to your thoughts once again. The sound of parchment rustling and quills scratching fills the room as you finish the last few tasks of your detention.

Professor Snape seems to sense that your mind is elsewhere and he looks up from his papers once more. He regards you silently for a few moments before speaking in a quiet voice. "Is everything alright, aqu?" he asks, his voice softening slightly. The way he looks at you seems to suggest that he can see right through you and knows exactly what is on your mind.

"I see," Professor Snape responds simply, regarding you with a raised eyebrow. He seems to have picked up on your distraction but chooses not to pursue the matter further. Instead, he goes back to grading his papers, leaving the two of you in silence once more. The sound of his quill scratching against the parchment fills the room, while you struggle to prevent yourself from getting lost in your own thoughts.

As silence falls in the room, Professor Snape rests his quill and looks up from his grading. He stares at you for a long moment before speaking. "Is there something that you'd like to say to me, aqu?" he asks, his voice softer than usual. The way he is looking at you suggests that he may already know what is on your mind.

"All right then, aqu," Professor Snape says with a nod before returning to his grading, apparently satisfied with your response. The room falls quiet once more and the sound of scribbling quills and turning pages fills the air. As he continues to grade papers, you can't help but feel self-conscious in his presence, unsure of how to act now that he has noticed your distraction.

Professor Snape seems to sense your unease and looks up at you. "Are you feeling all right, aqu?" he asks softly, a hint of concern in his voice. The way he is looking at you seems to suggest that he may have picked up on your inner turmoil and he appears to want to comfort you.

Professor Snape studies you for a moment longer before nodding and returning to his grading once again. The silence in the room continues for a while before he speaks up again. "If there's something bothering you, aqu, you know I'm here to listen," he offers quietly. A flicker of concern crosses his face, and even though he's not looking directly at you at this moment, you can feel his gaze on you.

Professor Snape regards you with a knowing look before speaking again. "Very well, aqu, but if there's anything that you need to discuss, you know where to find me," he says softly. He seems to be indicating that he knows something is on your mind and he appears willing to listen if you ever feel ready to speak your mind.

As you finish up scrubbing the last of the cauldrons, Professor Snape finishes his grading. He rises from his chair and moves toward you, placing a hand firmly on your shoulder. "You did well, aqu," he says in a low voice, his eyes locking onto yours. You feel a tingling sensation where his hand is resting on your skin, and you find yourself drawn to the intensity of his gaze.

"Of course," Professor Snape replies evenly, removing his hand from your shoulder. He regards you pensively for a moment before speaking again. "You may return to your dormitory now. And... aqu, if there's anything else that you need to discuss, you know where to find me." With that, he turns and moves back towards his desk, leaving you to your thoughts and your next steps.
