"Psst. Mione." Ron whispered, nudging his girlfriend.

"Ssh." she responded, turning back to her work.

Ron sighed and turned to his best friend. "Harry." he whispered.

"Ssh!" he whispered back.

The trio sat in the Potion's classroom. They were supposed to be working on something or other. Severus sat at his desk, writing something on what looked like a simple piece of parchment. Finally, Ron decided he had no other choice than to ask his Potions Master.

He tentatively raised his hand.

"Yes, Mr. Weasley?" Severus said irritably, without even looking up.

"Well, Sir, I was wondering if you could answer a question." he said. Hermione and Harry were looking at him curiously.

"Which would be…?" Severus responded.

"What's the plural of fish?" he asked slowly. Hermione's eyebrows raised, Harry's jaw dropped, and Severus actually looked up. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the Griffindor with an expression of pure disbelief.

"Did you just ask what the plural of fish is?" Hermione hissed.

"Yes." Ron responded, his voice barely louder than a whisper.

"The plural of fish…" Severus started. "…is fish." he finished. Hermione couldn't stifle her giggle.

"Thank you, Sir." Ron said as he turned back to his work. Severus rolled his eyes and went back to his work.

Yes, I know how stupid that was. But I was really bored the other day, so I started searching (on Google, of course) funny Severus Snape pictures. And this picture came up, and he's wearing this look like, "WTF?" and the captions say, in this top left corner, "The plural of fish…" and then in the bottom right corner, "…is fish." And I was just like, "WTF? That is so stupid, and random, and pointless, that it's HILARIOUS!" So yeah. Sorry if you lost a few IQ pints after reading this!
