Snape forced himself to let the slow minutes tick by. He disliked the Carrows' methods and the evident pleasure they took in this, but he dared not interfere too quickly. Finally he judged that the torture had persisted long enough.
"Alecto." His voice was a lash. "Amycus. Leave him now."
"Fond of this one, are you?" Amycus sneered, but his wand hand dropped.
Severus snorted. "Hardly. Longbottom is one of the least competent students it has ever been my misfortune to teach. Longbottom. Go."
With quiet satisfaction he watched Longbottom square his shoulders and glare at his tormentors before departing.
