A/N: Because silburygirl asked, and I'm a sap. (and because after seeing the zillionth fic where Hermione puts up patiently with Snape being a jerk, I asked her "where are the canaries?")
Ron peered at Snape's arm. "Hermione give you those welts? I still have scars, mate. Already? Didn't you two just have your first date?
