Challenge: snarry100's Challenge 173: Watching Harry
A/N: Written, in part, for mac_tunes
Potter drank everything in precisely two ways: guzzled or sipped at hesitantly. Snape shielded his gaze behind the Prophet, lest he be found out too early in the game. Snape rattled the paper and turned the page.
He suspected Potter would notice this action and was rewarded. Potter blinked twice as if trying to solve a challenging riddle. The staff table now curved, forming a horseshoe for better conversations when in reality all it served was to force them to watch one another.
Potter levitated the teapot across the open space and it landed with a deadened thump in Snape's reach. Perfect.
