(A/N; I know, it's weird. Inspired by the loos in Blijdorp Zoo, Rotterdam, that really are like this. Any gratuitous slash suggestions are part of my efforts to please Lady Twatterby.)
Chapter 11: The Loo At The Zoo
After an exhausting afternoon of tempting small boys with sweets, Lucius Malfoy and Severus Snape finally found the zoo's toilets. Snape waited at the sinks, feeling slightly nervous in a muggle's loo, while Lucius went through a door to the proper loos.
He opened a door, and behind it was a set of other doors. Thinking one of these had to be a loo, he opened one, but behind it was another set of doors.
'How odd.' He thought, and opened a random door. Behind it was yet another set of doors. He opened the door next to it. Behind that door were more doors. It was the same for every other door, so in the end he just walked through one, and opened one of the doors that lay behind it, only to run into more doors. "Where are those bloody loos," he growled, slamming door after door, getting more and more lost in the very forest of doors as it unfolded before him. After a while, he was beginning to feel rather tired, and decided that there had to be another building with loos in it somewhere else, one that wasn't some kind of sick joke.
"Severus!" he called out. After a few seconds, the answer came, sounding very far away;
"Yes? Are you lost again?"
"Yes!" he answered. "It's a labyrinth in here!" He thought he heard Snape sigh and say "Not again...." before the distant slamming of a door. And then another door, and another, and another, and another.... The sounds slowly began to fade away as Snape also got lost, until finally............... all was silent.
"Well, that's it." Lucius said to himself, and sat down on the tiled floor. After a while, he started feeling hungry, and he had just begun eating what was left of his sweets (he couldn't stand the stuff, but he was dreadfully bored), when suddenly, a door behind him swung open, and Lupin came in.
"LUPIN!" Lucius said, jumping up, storming towards him, and flooring him in grateful affection.
"Hello," said Lupin casually, his voice slightly smothered by Lucius' body. Then he noticed the sweets in Lucius' hand. "Are you going to finish those?"
