When Lupin enters Slughorn’s laboratory, Severus scowls.
“Where’s Slughorn?” Lupin frowns. “I need—”
“Yes?”
Lupin hesitates.
“Kneazle got your tongue?” Severus drawls.
“It’s…private. Are you serving detention?”
“Apprenticing actually,” Severus sneers. “And Slughorn’s away. Family emergency.”
“Shit.” Lupin, looking stricken, exits.
Shrugging, Severus continues brewing, contemplating Lupin. Slughorn brewed secretly all week, but Severus recalls seeing aconite— He freezes.
Placing his potion under stasis, Severus searches Slughorn’s cabinet, hands shaking when he finds what he’d hoped to not find. Suddenly, Lupin’s secretive actions and frequent illnesses make sense.
“Damn,” he mutters, checking the time. Almost nightfall.
