Chapter 372: Chapter 371: Malfoy Also Wants to Learn the Patronus Charm (Edited)
After handing out the presents, Fish brought out a small birthday cake, as well as three sets of knives, forks, and plates and quickly placed them on Snape's desk.
"Okay, now it's cake time, nya!"
?(??﹃??)?
Fish raised his hands in the air, shouting with a knife in one hand and a fork in the other.
But he quickly dropped the knife and fork, "Oh yes, and first blow out the candles and make a wish!".
However, Snape waved his hand and said, "No, just eat, I have no more wishes to fulfill."
As he said this, his eyes looked like a pool of stagnant water.
(●?ω?●)?
Fish scratched the back of his neck in frustration, he could sense that Professor Snape was upset, but he didn't know how to help him, because the cat didn't know what Snape was going through and couldn't understand his sadness.
So he cut a big piece of cake and gave it to Snape.
"Severus, eat a piece of cake, you will feel better after eating something sweet nya."
(つΦωΦ●)つ
Snape pursed his thin lips, picked up Fish's cake and popped a small piece into his mouth....
It was too sweet.
Snape, who didn't like sweets, thought silently, and then ate the whole piece of cake.
Fish, on the other hand, was also eating the cake in big bites, squinting happily and purring happily from time to time.
Malfoy, for his part, was not so happy, although he was also eating his cake, but seeing Professor Snape's expressionless face, eating his birthday cake with regular frequency and posture, one bite at a time, made Malfoy feel something like the sensation of chewing wax....
The atmosphere was so depressing!
As Draco's godfather and Lucius Malfoy's best friend, Snape had eaten with the family a few times, but with Lucius and Narcissa around, the atmosphere had been good.
Now, however, it was clear that Snape was not in a very good mood, and Malfoy realized that eating with his godfather was a very torturous affair.
He wanted to say something to lighten the mood, but seeing the callous look on Snape's face, Malfoy swallowed his words.
Soon, both Snape and Malfoy finished their plates of cake and put down their knives and forks, silently watching as Fish continued to eat alone.
"Would you like some more cake, nya?"
(?? ω??)
With a mouthful of cream, Fish lifted his head from the plate and asked them both.
Snape shook his head silently, and Malfoy waved his hands with a dry smile and said, "No, no, I've had enough for one night."
Fish flapped his ears, though he too sensed that the mood was a bit depressing, but....
Let's finish eating the cake first!
So the kitten went back to burying himself in the cake.
Finally, while Malfoy waited restlessly, Fish finished the rest of the birthday cake, licking the cream from his mouth with his tongue and vigorously wiping his mouth with a cat-patterned handkerchief, before looking at Snape.
(??ˇ?ˇ??)
After a few moments of looking at Snape with a serious expression, Fish said, "Severus, you can't be this unhappy all the time, you can't even use the Patronus Charm like that."
Snape's face twitched twice, and he said nothing, but stood up and prepared to leave.
"You need not concern yourself with this matter. After the birthday celebration is over, you must go back to sleep. Don't forget that there is still a Sirius Black wandering around the school."
Malfoy, who wanted to run away for a long time, quickly got up and asked Fish curiously at the same time, "Fish, what is this Patronus Charm you're talking about?"
"Patronus is a spell used against Dementors, the silver and white phoenix that Albus summoned the last time he was in the camp was his Patronus nya."
The little kitten said to Malfoy with a bit of embarrassment, "Fish has been learning the Patronus Charm with Minerva recently, it's so interesting nya!"
(●`?′●)
"Oh yeah, and Harry has also been studying with Fish in the classroom with Minerva."
"What? that Potter is learning the Patronus Charm too?!"
Malfoy, who didn't care at first, lost his composure when he heard this.
"Well" Speaking of which, Fish wasn't so happy, he pursed his mouth and reluctantly replied, "And Harry can already summon a physical Patronus, Fish's is only a half-finished one..."
(〃｀3′〃)
"What is the form of Potter's Patronus?"
Snape suddenly stopped the two who had already walked towards the door and asked in a dry voice.
"It's a stag nya, and from what Minerva said, it's exactly the same as Harry's father's Patronus." Fish answered truthfully.
"Hmph!"
Snape's face immediately turned very ugly, and Malfoy's didn't look much better either.
"So, Potter isn't afraid of Dementors anymore?"
"I don't think so..."
Fish scratched his head, not quite sure, "He couldn't summon a full Patronus when he faced the Dementor the Boggart had become, but he hadn't fainted nya either."
"Godfather!" Malfoy boldly pleaded with Snape, "I want to learn the Patronus Charm from you, too!"
"Draco, if you want to learn the Patronus Charm, why don't you go to Minerva with Fish to learn nya?"
"I refuse!" Malfoy decisively refused the cat's offer, "I'm not hanging out with Potter!"
Fish scratched his head helplessly, he knew the two were not on good terms, so he spent no more energy trying to persuade them.
But after a moment's hesitation, he couldn't help but remind herself, "But Severus always seems unhappy, he shouldn't be able to use the Patronus Charm nya..."
"Expecto Patronum."
A silvery-white mist appeared in front of the cat, and Snape demonstrated that he could use the Patronus Charm as well.
Only to see Fish grin widely....
"Nyajajajajaja! Severus, you can't summon a physical Patronus either!"
(?≧?≦?)
"I just don't like people seeing the shape of my Patronus."
Snape explained sullenly with a dark face.
"Is that so nya?!"
The kitten didn't suspect he was lying, both because Fish knew Minerva could do such things, and because Snape, unlike Minerva and the mean old man, had never lied to him.
So he leapt to Snape's side with a twinkle in his eye, tugging at his robes and asking questions aloud.
(??ω??)?
"What were you thinking when you summoned your Patronus, Severus? I asked a lot of people and none of their methods worked on me!".
Snape pursed his lips tightly and said nothing.
"Nya?"
Fish didn't quite understand what he was referring to and cocked his head to one side, confused.
"Ahem," Malfoy cleared his throat, hastily relieving his godfather, "We Slytherins don't like to tell anything too personal, so.... "
"Alright then..."
Fish smacked his lips helplessly, if it had been two years ago, the puss might have continued to fuss for no reason, but now the cat was learning to care about other people's moods, so he had to give up regretfully.
