Author's Notes: Iwas inspired by this cartoon I found after doing a Google picture search on Saint Valentine.
"Snape, we found something in the Black vault and I thought of you." Sirius tossed the vial to Snape.
Severus deftly caught it and read the label. "Athena's Tears. Extremely rare and illegal if this is indeed the genuine article. To what do I owe this moment of liberal generosity?"
"Consider it a Valentine's gift." Snape's face said that he wasn't buying it. "Or, as you know, Athena's Tears is exceptionally unstable and if you end up blowing your nose off, you'll make me the happiest wizard in history."
"You will have to forgive me if I endeavor to disappoint."
