HP trickle down

On the training ground, more than a dozen people flew around the sky on broomsticks, contacting the so-called cooperation.However, in Severus' view, these people were still fighting openly and secretly for family interests.

Look at Miss Rose Collison in the third grade. Last time, because Dolohov in the fourth grade said a word about her make-up, she has held grudges until now. She deliberately stood in front of Dolohov during training. Dolokhov couldn't see the ball clearly.

By the way, there is also Tom Black. In the last duel, he shot too hard to ensure that Cyril could get the chief position. Now that he is practicing, some people are clearly or secretly tripping him up.

Burt trained very hard, and Anthony worked harder than him.Burt didn't accept the Seeker spot from Anthony, opting for goaltender instead.As the captain, Lucius is trying to score goals in various ways, but the result is nothing.

After Lucius was tired, Derek Zabini came on. The two strongest seniors failed to score a goal under Bert. When Bert came down, he really wanted to throw the broom.However, he didn't sit on the broom seriously, but used elemental magic to control his body to fly into the air, and didn't put himself on the broom.Burt originally wanted to stand on the broom like his mother Flying Sword, but it was too eye-catching.

On the spur of the moment that day, he took Severus to learn the flying spell, was seen by too many people, and kept asking him about the spell secretly.

Even if you tell them, it's actually useless.Because they didn't learn his magic theory system... He has actually sorted out the basic parts now, and it's even more troublesome as for spells or others.He needed to take his time, and Severus and the others weren't moving fast.So he doesn't need to be too eager, otherwise there will be big problems.

He came down to rest, and Severus handed him the towel and the drink he had prepared.Burt gave Severus a bright smile and said, "Sev, you're boring by yourself."

"Going to the Black Lake and seeing the stupid Gryffindor lion, I'm also bored." The implication is that I definitely don't stay in this boring place because of you.Severus casually threw the towel into the bucket Anthony had prepared, and put it by his lap before finishing his drink.Then he stopped looking at Bert, who was relaxing his muscles. There was a part in the spell book that he didn't understand just now.

Lucius came over at this time, glanced at Severus, nodded, and said to Burt: "You performed very well, but I believe you can also do well as a batsman, why do you want to be a goalkeeper? "

"Wouldn't it be better to set a new record?" Bert smiled confidently, "We can't score a single goal, but our team can score again and again and finally catch the Snitch. A perfect victory is not what we all pursue. ?"

Lucius smiled knowingly, of course he also wanted such a result, especially against the Lions.But he couldn't rest assured just by imagination, and asked again seriously: "Are you sure Anthony will catch the Snitch before that Potter?"

"Even if you can't catch it this time, you can do it next time." Burt looked seriously into Lucius' gray-blue eyes and said, "Whether we can catch the Snitch or not, we will be the champions. Quidditch Odd is a group activity, not a game that depends on a single 150 points to decide the outcome, isn't it?"

"Cooperation?" Lucius' eyeballs slanted to the corner of his left eye, and quickly turned back. "With this level of cooperation, I don't know if we can win the championship together."

"Chief, you are the captain. In terms of cooperation, you should be in command instead of me." Bert smiled and didn't answer.

Lucius stared at Burt with his majestic eyes for a while, and then he laughed and shouted loudly: "Don't rest! Let's train and cooperate!"

Bert watched Lucius turn and leave, he hasn't rested enough yet!

Just looking at Lucius' determined look, Burt will not be shy.Immediately stood together with his group of "teammates".

Severus managed to divert a little attention from his books to the re-flight group.

As the captain, Lucius is directing from above.Through various imaginary hostile situations, all players are directed to change formations and how to deal with their old opponents.Sometimes, Slytherin play is not not violent, but too violent.And it's not that they don't pay attention to heroism, but they want to pursue heroism too much, forgetting that cooperation is the ultimate magic weapon for victory.

"It's kind of interesting." Severus put down the book, and after watching the boring intrigue for so long, they also started to cooperate.Burt really achieved the effect he wanted with the help of Lucius.

Now, if Anthony couldn't catch the Snitch in the end, Burt would deal with him in a very miserable way.

Now that the training was on track, Severus also felt that there was no need for him to stay here.After all, the noisy training ground is really not a good place to read, and the reading time he made with Lily has come, so he should go to the library.

That time with Lily, Severus didn't feel that there was anything wrong with him.Lily asked him to apologize when he went to her.It was impossible for Severus to agree, but he still found a chance to talk to Lily.After all, they are friends, and what is James?

Although Lily forgave him, Severus still didn't feel he had done anything wrong.But reconciliation was fine, Severus didn't expect Lily to fully understand him.

But thinking about it this way, I feel a little bored in my heart.If it's Burt... stop!

Severus couldn't let himself think about it anymore, if he continued to think about it, the friendship that had a crack in it would only be fragmented in comparison.Severus liked Lily.

Why doesn't he like her?

Lily is a beautiful little girl, and she has a sense of justice.Lily was the only little witch who had seen him so miserable but would not look at him with contempt.They met when they were young and became friends.A warmth he couldn't feel, Severus felt in the friendship Lily had given him.

Lily just needs to remember him, they don't need to get too close.Get too close and they'll all get hurt by each other.Severus could feel that he and Lily saw things very differently.After Lily entered Gryffindor for a year, Severus became more and more afraid that if he and Lily continued like this, Lily would also start to hate Slytherin and hate him like those Gryffindors.

After all, Lily is a popular little witch.But he is different.The gloomy little bat...that's what they call it.What more could he ask for?

In fact, Lily is not wrong.When she saw James insulting him, she would stand up, refute and fight for him; and when she saw him beat James to the point of injury, she would also worry.This worry was mutual, she was worried about her classmates, and also worried about whether Severus would be punished for hurting someone.

Moreover, in the little girl's heart, fighting is probably more unbearable than scolding.The former will be injured, and the latter will cause internal injuries at most.

As for Bert, Severus felt so good with him...

With just one look, Bert could understand what he was thinking, and he would send what he needed most.In the name of family, take care of him and don't let him feel any burden.

Although Severus was always stubborn and refused to admit it, the person who understood him best was none other than Bert.And Burt loves him in his most unique way.However, if the bastard could get rid of his habit of leaning into his ear and talking, Severus might be more comfortable and willing to treat him better.

Severus walked to his usual seat with Lily, sat down, took out his book, and continued to write and draw on it.Finding that there were not many blank spaces left in the book, Severus pulled out a piece of parchment and continued to write and draw.

He got a lot of inspiration from Burt. Recently, after he learned more about the ancient runes, he wanted to try to see if he could invent a spell.Seems to be picking up a bit so far, but he doesn't want Bert to know what he's doing just yet.

He got inspiration from the Silencing Charm and wanted to invent a spell that would allow him to be purified.It's better not to hear the voices you don't want to hear, such as Bert talking nonsense, and Anthony when he is annoying.

"Severus." Lily panted, greeted softly with a smile, and sat across from Severus.

"Lily." Severus stopped, looked up, and gave Lily a nod.

Mary frowned and sat down beside Lily.She didn't understand why Lily would want to turn down Gryffindor Quidditch training and come here for boring study.

"Lily, their training isn't over yet, I still want to see Sirius' heroic posture on the broom." Mary's saliva was about to flow down as she spoke.

Out of his upbringing, etiquette, and his respect for women, Severus decided to turn a blind eye to Mary.

"Mary, you can watch their training by yourself, but I do have a lot of things I don't understand about ancient runes recently, and I need to ask Severus for advice." Lily looked embarrassed, but she didn't want to give up watching Opportunities for team training.

Mary had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​letting Lily accompany her back, instead she looked at Severus and asked, "Snape, are you Slytherins training too?"

"Yeah." Severus replied without looking up.

"Hey! There will be a confrontation between Slytherin and Gryffindor soon," Mary's eyes lit up, "Who are there in your team?"

"Bert Alfred..."

"Ahhh! I knew it! Someone like Bert would definitely join the Slytherin team!" Mary couldn't help screaming.

"Get out of here! Don't make any noise in the library!" Mrs. Pince yelled, driving all three of them out.

Severus grabbed his schoolbag strap, looking at the unrestrained Mary, feeling a little headache.He really wanted to curse, but Lily obviously wouldn't just sit back and watch him "bully" a girl.

"Really? My God! Lily, let's go and see how Bert Alfred trains." Mary excitedly grabbed Lily's hand and proposed.

"But, Mary, we are Gryffindors. They won't let us watch them practice." Lily was kicked out and didn't know where to continue her studies.Just in time to watch Quidditch training too.Moreover, Bert actually joined the academy team, and Lily also wanted to know what Bert was like in training.

Mary turned her head, pointed at Severus and said, "Isn't he a Slytherin? Let him take us there."

"Miss, it's better not to take some things for granted." Severus finally couldn't help it anymore, "Excessive delusions will only make you ask for blows."

"It's fine if you don't want to help, what's the point of sarcasm?" Mary screamed.

"Mary!" Lily didn't know why they confronted each other, and she didn't know how to persuade them.

"Why did you decide to ask me to help? I don't think it's right for Gryffindor to spy on Slytherin training." Severus said coldly, without the slightest ups and downs in his voice.He was so calm that he didn't seem to be arguing, his voice was a little low.During the voice change period, Burt asked him not to speak loudly and hurt his throat.Even so, the sound was a bit odd.

"Shut up, drake voice! Lily, do you see what kind of friends you have made?" Mary pushed Lily away and left angrily.

"Severus, we just want to watch the training, we don't want to take the opportunity to do anything, don't overreact." Lily was also a little annoyed, and Severus just didn't trust them.

Severus opened his mouth and said, "You and I can believe it, but MacDonald, I can't."

"You!" Lily said only one word, unable to speak.

"You go to your friends...write your problem on a piece of paper, and I'll solve it for you. Just send me the letter." Severus shut up, grabbed his schoolbag and strode forward to leave.

Lily stood where she was, staring blankly at the back of Severus leaving. For some reason, she felt that she would really be farther and farther away from Severus in the future...
