Words: 200 (yes, really 😉), complete, but there are related follow up one shots
Characters: Severus, Hermione
Severus, sufficiently mannered to refill a lady's empty cup, has patiently suffered Hermione's teasing as to his choice in porcelain. 'Flowered! Seriously? Flowered!' On the whole, he finds her company more than compensates for the occasional not so 'bon' bonmot, and it leaves him largely unfazed. He could hardly settle for a Muggle mug after all. The choices in patterns alone. How would he ever decide? **
Of course, when she proceeds to suggest a simple... deflowering might help matters some, she has his full attention...
Hermione could hardly have failed to notice the floral pattern, and had he truly meant her to, there was always a Notice-Me-Not. Were she just that teeny tiny bit more observant, however, she'd realise he'snicked borrowed a cup from Professor Trelawney and perhaps wonder why. But then that's what comes of walking out on class third year...
One might surmise Severus had availed himself of Sybill's crockery for the express purpose of providing himself with just such an opening. Not that he'd ever have expected Hermione to beat him to the punch, but gift horses... Hmm. To overlook such an opportunity once presented seems frankly churlish.
A/N: ** Of course there's always TOBLASS's inspired idea - 'Tea and Toast' on AO3...
This continues in 'the tea drabble 2' (LJ / DW).
