I did not paint a good portrait of Severus in this story.
Feedback: Yes
Severus hated being forced to cater to the werewolf when he was a professor. He was forced to make the Wolfsbane, despite wanting nothing to do with the filthy creature. It was abuse of his skills as a Potions master.
Grudgingly, he had to admit that Lupin was a good professor. In fact, he was probably one of the best DADA teachers they had in a long while.
Severus watched once as his eyes lit up when talking to a student about a particular aspect of the class. His amber eyes were bright and seemed to sparkle in his excitement.
Despite what he wanted, Severus found his old crush returning. He thought it was completely gone as he hadn't seen Lupin in years, but alas, Severus found himself fantasizing about Lupin's supple body before he went to bed.
Like during their school years though, Lupin was still focused on Black. Although it was known that Lupin terminated his relationship with Black when he went to Azkaban, Severus knew once Black's innocence was found, they'd be together again.
He thought if Black was out of the picture, Lupin would finally notice him – that's why he stayed quiet about Black's innocence – but of course, Lupin didn't pay him any attention, too focused on the grief of the Potters' deaths.
All of Severus's scheming had been for naught. But at least if he couldn't have Lupin, than Black wasn't allowed to either.
He needed to keep Black and Lupin apart, no matter what. At least there were orders for the Dementer's kiss on sight if Black was found. It should be easy to get Black out of the picture. Once and for all.
