On the Tenth day of Christmas my true love gave to me
Ten Lords a Leaping
Nine Ladies Dancing

Severus entered the lab early Tuesday morning eager to get started on testing what he had discovered in his research. He stopped short when he realized there were a wide variety of items on the work bench that should be empty.
The first thing that caught his attention was a fourth crystal snake. Completely black and shaped like a basilisk. His eyes jumped around from the huge section of snake skin to the jars of internal organs, to the vials of blood and other fluids, to the huge fang. Nearly every useful part of the gigantic snake was laid out before him. He finally focused on the card tucked partially under the crystal basilisk.
The picture was of a young man caught mid-leap. Inside were the words, ‘Try not to get so caught up that you miss the Christmas party tomorrow evening, Your Secret Santa’.
Severus was quite stunned by the enormity of the increasingly expensive and extravagant gifts he was receiving. As one of his students had said he was beginning to suspect that someone really did like him.
