Challenge: #314: "The First-Footer"
Word Count: 100
Pairing: Snape/Lupin
Madam Mimbletonia - named for the boils that covered (not only) her face - bottled the Wolfsbane, cursing the mangy wolf who kept her busy on days like this. The potion had to be delivered tonight and all her delivery owls had fled to avoid those blasted Muggle fireworks.
The clock had long struck midnight when she banged on Lupin's door. A grin plastered on his (not quite) ugly face, the wolf talked gibberish to her, "Tall, dark-haired, male - good fortune for sure."
Realising the Polyjuice had worn off, Severus crossed the threshold. Lupin's exuberant thanks weren't completely unwelcome.
