Notes: Happy Halloween, Danielle!
"They’re going to love you,” Hermione assured Severus as they ducked under ropes of rotting moss and dodged a slavering werewolf with three-inch fangs.
He’d looked forward to meeting her parents. However, nothing had prepared Severus for tonight.
“They volunteer at this village haunted house every Halloween,” she explained.
“But why must we meet them here?” he asked.
“Because you’re a wizard. They have a quirky sense of humor. It skips a generation,” she hastened to add.
~~~ooooOOOOoo
Gore-splattered arrows pointed to the front door. Severus sneered with professional disdain.
Inside, they immediately became separated in the scrum. Several wrong turns later, Severus fell through a trap door. He landed unceremoniously in a thick pile of wood chips and was set upon by little goblins in rubber masks.
“Abracadabra!” shrieked a teenage witch whose nose was longer than her wand.
“Beechwood? Eight inches? You couldn’t Transfigure a fly,” he scoffed.
Half an hour later, Hermione and her parents found him conducting an impromptu seminar on wandlore for raptly-attentive young ghouls.
“I would like your permission to court your daughter,” he informed the Grangers. “Shall we discuss it over dinner tomorrow?” Courteously, he bowed and ushered a giggling Hermione out the door.
