[HP] Aunt of the Savior

As a Slytherin, Snape was used to walking from the lawn shrouded in sunlight to the dark cellar. The sunlight surrounded him, but it couldn't give him enough warmth. In this case, he would rather choose the dark and damp cellar.He didn't notice where Jody went, and he didn't want to pay attention to it now.

He kept his head down, and he didn't even look up when he excused Avery and Mulciber in front of Professor McGonagall.He could feel that after that stupid Gryffindor Potter yelled, Lily had been staring at him with that unbelievable look.Of course, Lily was not the only one looking at him, but also those "spectators" who didn't leave, their eyes were full of gloating.

Those countless gazes were like invisible needles piercing Snape's thin back, but he could still tell that among those people there was not the one he most expected.Lily seemed to be trying to get close to him, to talk to him, but the girls around her stopped her in disapproval.In the end, she left with the weeping Mary Macdonald.Immediately afterwards, Potter and Black also left, followed by their little follower Pedilu - he was really glad that he could endure and didn't attack those two guys he hated.

Everyone left, but...he didn't know when Jody left.She didn't speak to him, and just left alone in such a silent manner.

Yeah, Snape thought to himself, how could he expect her to stand by his side after such a severe humiliation?He never even confirmed their relationship with any words!

For a split second he thought his heart had been hit harder than his own - in fact he was unscathed, the grass had been carefully buffered, and he had almost fallen on the mat.

"I want to say..." Avery tried to express his gratitude to Snape, but before he could open his mouth, he closed his mouth wisely when he noticed Snape's ugly face.Snape's retaliation in the first grade made him somewhat terrified of Snape.

"Next time, don't do such a stupid thing to be discovered." But in the end, Snape still spoke with difficulty.He suspected that after what happened today, it might be difficult for him to maintain his current status among the Slytherin students. "It's not always that lucky."

After leaving this sentence, he took a step without looking back, leaving Avery and Mulciber behind who couldn't respond in time, and walked towards the only place that could calm his emotions.

He desperately wanted to go back there, the secret base that only belonged to him and her, even...even if she might never appear there again.

The room was quiet, save for the faint gurgling of the golden liquid boiling in the cauldron, and the occasional crackling of the simmer as it jumped under the cauldron.Fortunately, they didn't forget to add a protective spell to the pot of potion before they left, otherwise, this elixir of happiness, which cannot make a single mistake, would definitely fall short.

Being nurtured by his mother since he was a child, Snape has always had a high success rate in brewing potions.When you can't waste a little material, you must be careful to avoid any avoidable failure.At this point, Snape had always done a great job.So when he stood in front of the crucible silently and concentratedly, continuing his work, he almost forgot all his troubles and anxieties.

Snape believed that he had always been focused and dedicated enough when making potions, but this time, when the sound of the door opening came from behind him, he couldn't help but respond faster than he expected. Overhead.

"Severus." Jody looked very bad, with obvious tiredness on his face.Looking at Snape, she seemed to try to smile: "I knew you would be here."

She knew very well how hard it would be for this proud boy to accept what happened today, and he even called her Miss Potter instead of Jody again in front of people.After being patient, silent, and hiding from each other for so long, she naturally didn't want them to fall into some kind of crisis because of what happened today.In fact, even without what happened today, there is no doubt that she and him need a conversation.

The corners of Snape's mouth twisted and twitched, and then he turned his head quickly, continuing to stare at the cauldron in front of him: "I want to finish the Felician."

His breathing was a little short, and he couldn't admit that he was afraid of hearing her speak, afraid of her saying something he didn't want to hear, whether it was comfort, apology, or... He couldn't accept it.That feeling of shame is still vividly lingering on every part of his body, and the flame of resentment is burning his heart.He knew that he would definitely get the debt back for himself—considering the lord's growing power, maybe it wouldn't take too long.

But Jody spoke anyway: "Severus, I have something to ask you."

She knew very well that Snape wanted nothing from her for comfort or pity, so she simply skipped over what happened by the lake. "How much do you know about Diagon Alley?—or should I ask, how much do you know about the Dark Lord?"

"Why are you asking that?" Snape heard his own voice startlingly hoarse.He was thankful that he had cast a protective spell on the cauldron when Jody appeared - it was impossible for him to calm down and brew even the simplest potion now.

"We both know that we are hiding something from each other." Jody closed his eyes, took a deep breath, then opened them again, and walked closer to Snape. "I know, you've always wanted to know that part, the part I kept from you. Now I've decided to speak out, but..."

He interrupted her and asked, "But I have to tell my hidden parts too, don't I?"

"Yes." Jody looked at Snape, his voice very soft. "That's fair."

"Fair? You already know what I'm hiding, don't you?" Snape said, with habitual sarcasm in his tone: "You've known since you actually joined the society through Crouch .I have long decided to choose the Dark Lord, and the Dark Lord can help me get the status and rights I deserve."

"At least before today, I got what I wanted in Slytherin smoothly." He raised his eyebrows in self-deprecating manner, and didn't want to continue to state that he hoped to have the same status and status as those pure-blood families with a long history. Another reason for prestige is that he fell in love with a direct descendant of a pure-blood family. "Yes, I know that the Death Eaters are going to attack Diagon Alley that day, and I know what they plan to do, clean up the wizarding world, expel the Muggles who ruled the world..."

"But we all know that although the Dark Lord is indeed very powerful," Jody did not show any surprise at this answer, but she asked again as if to confirm. "But he's also scary. We've seen him, and we know what he's been up to - Lily's clippings are always very detailed."

"Yes, I know how terrifying and terrifying the Dark Lord is, but so what? I just need to know that he is strong enough." The muscles on Snape's face trembled, which made him look a bit hideous: "What's more , wizards should rule over lowly and weak Muggles!"

"Should?" Jody showed a mocking smile, "but the fact of history is that those who are considered lowly and weak by the Dark Lord have driven wizards into hiding, and wizards have never done this .The vast majority of Muggles don't even believe that there is magic in this world. At first, we may use magic to cover up and treat Muggles as toys, but when Muggles notice that wizards really exist, can you Are you sure that a few wizards can really rule Muggles?"

"If you trust the power of Muggles so much, why did you choose to be a member of that society?" Snape frowned. "I know the Potters have never been a pure-blood advocate, and you've gotten on well with Muggles in Godric's Hollow...why?"

"That's exactly what I wanted to tell you." Jody shoved Snape's wand into his hand. "You can check for yourself—in the way you've always wanted to."

Snape stared at Jody incredulously, he knew she had been steadfast but the look in those brown eyes proved that her words were not some idle prank.Panting heavily, he pointed his wand at the girl in front of him for the first time, and said in a trembling voice. "Legiliency!"

This time is obviously different from the previous mutual offensive and defensive practice. Jody's brain is not covered with a thick curtain like before, but is clearly displayed in front of his eyes.

Jody and her parents confirmed the secret of the childbirth potion... Jody secretly wrote to Malfoy and asked him to meet... Jody confronted Malfoy in the three broomsticks... How did Jody put his black magic learning notebook in In the most prominent place of the desk... Jody was talking to Dumbledore...

"This is what you are hiding from me?!" Snape interrupted the magic in shock.Look what he saw!He couldn't believe it all, and didn't know which was more unacceptable to him.

Hoping to claim the Potter succession by following Voldemort?Or volunteered to be Dumbledore's eyeliner?Or was she silently planning all this by his side and putting it into practice?

"Are you crazy?" Snape couldn't help grabbing Jody's arm, "Do you even know what you're doing?"

"Of course I know," Jody endured the pain in his arm. "If the Dark Lord wins, then I can still protect James. If he fails, I can still guarantee that I can return to my original life."

He looked at her as if he was meeting her for the first time, and he couldn't believe that she dared to think this way, and actually did it.He let go of her arm in frustration: "Why? You know how dangerous it is, you...you are just... crazy!"

"As far as I remember, I have never lied to any party. I just want to protect my home, but in a more powerful and status-oriented way. Don't forget, I am also a Slytherin." Jody There was peace in his eyes, and even a faint smile. "I haven't told you before, but now, I don't need to keep it a secret from you."

Severus, if you decide to follow Voldemort, that's all I have to tell you.Also, I am very happy with my Occlumency.

"I think you understand why I am willing to tell you everything."

"Yes, I understand." The black eyes stared at the brown eyes - of course I understand, this is your alternative compensation for what happened today, isn't it?

"I won't hide from you anymore." Looking at the bitterness in the corner of his mouth, she said.
