Other pairings: Minerva McGonagall/Luna Lovegood
Rating: General
Word count: 2209
Content/Warnings: None
Prompter/Prompt: No. 61 from [info]acid: This is far from a fairytale, but they are, apparently, trapped in an ancient castle, and Hogwarts seems to have a mind of its own, and a copious supply of enchanted mistletoe.
Summary:
The Snape had no plans to stop Christmas from coming,
To halt all the singing and humming and drumming,
But he greeted it all with the grimmest of frowns,
The lights and the bells and the bright paper crowns.
He loomed and he fumed, complaining and stewing.
He gloomed and he doomed. He'd rather be brewing.

…A Snarry Christmas rhyme.

A/N: This was also highly influenced by Prompt No. 57 from [info]hippocrates460: Severus is the Grinch. And just by Dr. Seuss in general, from whom I've snatched phrases here and there. Um…did I set out to write a children's rhyme when I took the prompt? Nope, but here it is. Thank you, wonderful mods! And thank you, prompter! Even if it's not what you expected, I hope you like it.
