"You had to be a detective didn't you?" Snape sounded as though he couldn't have been more exhausted.

"I didn't believe you were a traitor," Lupin put in hopefully.

"and are you satisfied?" He sneered, "Have you seen what you came to see? How did you think this would be productive?"

"I don't know…" Lupin admitted, leaning his arms on the bars of the cell so he would no longer have to face Severus' wrath "I guess I didn't think…"

"That much is obvious," Severus finished for him, leaning on the opposite wall.

"Sorry." Remus offered, but Severus remained impassive.
