Disclaimer: No, I did not miraculously gain possession of Harry Potter between yesterday and today.

Book Six

Grief

I can't believe it.

I don't want to believe it.

They came. A student – a student – let them in.

And now, for the first time, the Dark Mark glows over Hogwarts.

I don't even have the satisfaction of having fought back. I didn't know. And Professor Snape…

Professor Snape.

My head of house.

My favourite teacher.

Every Slytherin's father figure.

That betrayal hurts the most of all.
