"Dare...a dare...I dare you to shave your beard off!" Severus sneered, giving him an evil smile. Albus stuttered, staring at him.

"Shave off my beard?" he asked. Severus nodded, his smile getting bigger by the minute. He conjured up a muggle electric shaver, and handed it to Albus. He turned it on, and put it to his face, shearing off the silver-white hair.

By the time he finished, the floor around him looked like it had been snowed on, and the staff was positively howling. He put it down, and said, "Minerva, truth, dare, or rainbow?"

"Dare," she said.

"I dare you to do the can-can!" Albus said. Minerva sighed, and got up. Sybil used her wand, which no one knew she had, to turn some music on. She started dancing, the other adults noticing that she could *not* dance that well. Multiple objects were kicked from their shelves, and either bounced around, or broke.

Clapping, the staff watched Minerva do a curtsy, and sit back down. "Severus, truth, dare, or rainbow?" she asked politely.

Sighing loudly, he replied, "Dare."

"I dare you to die your hair pink, and tie it up into pig tails, like I've seen some muggle girls do when they are tiny." Severus looked horrified, but took out a bottle of hair-dye potion. He added the element to make it pink, and poured it onto his hair, rubbing it in. They watched as his raven black hair lightened to bright pink. Laughing, Minerva took out two hair bands, and handed them to him.

The task of putting his hair up was done, after much struggling and swearing. "Filius, truth, dare or rainbow?" Severus asked.

"Rainbow!" the small wizard squeaked.

"Red." After he said it, Severus looked horrified. 'I shouldn't have picked THAT color...'

Filius pulled off his robes, which were a solid red, leaving him practically with nothing on. Severus held back a shudder, feeling as if the sight would permanently scar him. "Sybil, truth, dare, or rainbow?" Filius asked calmly.

"I foresee me saying truth," Sybil said. Filius looked thoughtful.

"I've been hearing rumors of this with the rest of the staff, but is it true that you have a, erm, *crush* on Severus?" he asked. Sybil nodded. Severus fell forward out of his chair. Many of the others laughed. He got back up.

"Severus, truth, dare, or rainbow?" Sybil asked.

"Neither."

"Severus, give her an answer!" Albus said sharply. Severus nodded, mumbling curses at him.

"...dare."

Minerva leaned over, and whispered in Sybil's ear. The divination teacher nodded. "I dare you to drink 10 bottles of Fire Whiskey."

Severus shrugged, and took the first bottle. He was able to get 5 down, before hesitating before the others. He got the others done soon after. They laughed, seeing the look on his face. "Minerva. ::hiccup:: I dare ::hiccup:: you ::hiccup:: to wear a ::hiccup:: bikini ::hiccup:: for a week," he said, "starting now."

"What?!" Minerva said, but nodded, and stalked out. She returned a few minutes later, wearing a red bikini. They snickered, as she sat down. "Fillius, truth, dare, or rainbow?"

"Dare."

"Let's see, I shall dare you to..."
