Keep Calm and Conjure a Patronus Charm (boywizard) wrote in afic,
Harry bit his tongue before pointing out that he was, first, absolutely shite at potions anyway, and second that Severus Snape was an ass-wallop and a poor teacher. He respected Snape for the sacrifices he made and everything he'd done, in the end, to defeat Voldemort--but that guy.
"Is there a way to make this not look random?" Harry asked. "I don't want the Ministry to think that we just picked a second of the building and hit it, I want them to know that we know what they're doing--and that there mole doesn't know what we're up to. It's risky, I know, but I think it's important for them to know that they have an enemy and it's us for two reasons. First, being I don't know if they actually consider us much of a threat and second because if they're going to retaliate I want them to try and retaliate against us and not--not innocent people."
