Re: After Dinner - Harry and Al
Harry blinked, then smiled, because honestly he wasn't aware that Snape would recognise any of those. "Save for excitement," he said. "That is a lot of feelings with more negative connotations," he said softly. "Surely you're feeling joy, love, amusement, at times as well."
"Don't forget the good things in life, Al. Like the feeling you get when you open a new book." He knew his son enjoyed that.
He smirked. "I'm sure the experiment will be interesting. You'll keep me posted, right?"
"So how about your promise to try and make friends your own age?" he asked. "How is that going?"
