"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, Emu Otori. 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, Emu Otori? 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, Emu Otori. 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, Emu Otori. 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, Emu Otori. 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, Emu Otori. 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, Emu Otori?" 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."
