Raucous cackling

Untitled... And With Good Reason

Berto sighed with contentment as he gazed upon his newest Fido. This was the first one to understand a multi-syllabic command, not to mention the fact that Berto had been ordering his creation around for over an hour and it had not once spun its head around or thrown up motor oil. Pleased with life in general, the scientist sat back in his chair and thought I have all I could ever want. Great friends, a dream job, and success in my undertakings. What else is there?

Sitting with his eyes shut, savoring the moment, he did not hear anyone come into the room. However, he found out soon enough when someone nibbled on his earlobe and stifled her laughter at his reaction. Berto fell oh so gracefully out of his swivel chair and landed on his back.

"Kat!" he yelled, propping himself on his hands, "What do you think you're doing?!"

"What we should have done a long time ago," she breathed, coming down to his level and straddling his torso. "Now you," she smiled seductively, "have too many clothes on."

Berto gasped as Kat tore off the top of his uniform and started to kiss him more forcefully. He tried to struggle, but quickly realized that he didn't really want to. He reached up and put one of his hands on her neck, then slowly moved it down, expecting to be stopped by the neck of her uniform, but she seemed to have gotten it off without him noticing. Could have something to do with him being too nervous to open his eyes. He'd never had sex before...

Just as Berto was about to give in to all these sensations he was feeling, he heard the door slam open. He sat up with a shriek, frantically trying to cover his bare upper body. Kat didn't seem embarrassed, however, she did seem angry. Not bothering to cover herself, she spun around and started to yell at the intruder who must be Max.

Instead of their third team member, however, a man dressed in black robes was at the door.

Kat rolled her eyes. "Severus, I told you to knock."

Severus crossed his arms. "I just wanted to let you know your sister's on the phone. She can't decide between pink or peach dresses for the bridesmaids."

Kat looked back at Berto and groaned. "We'll have to continue this some other time."

Berto looked from one to the other and stammered.

"Don't worry about it," Kat assured him. And with that, she and Snape left the room.
