sunny33Hermione is having second thoughts about her choice of career.
Reviewed“Fucking dunderheads! Wouldn’t know a decent potion if they fell over one!” Hermione viciously slashed red ink into the offending parchment between glares at the smirking portrait behind her desk. “Oh, piss off. It’s all your fault!”
“Don’t blame me for your foolish choice of career, woman.”
“Well, if you hadn’t been such a brilliant teacher, I wouldn’t be sitting here.”
The man in the portrait raised a disbelieving eyebrow.
“OK. Unfair, intolerant, ill-tempered, antisocial, pig-headed, and brilliant.”
“You forgot obnoxious.”
The painted face of Severus Snape ducked as a paperweight sailed unerringly towards his frame.
“Your aim is improving!”
A/N: Written for Potter Place Saturday Night Drabbles. Prompt from luvsev: 100 words, a picture, a memory, any pairing.

Author's Response: I think you need to get a stiff drink and sit down. I have something to tell you...
KingPhilipsWench's response: I've got my bottle of expensive scotch. Now, what is this you need to tell me?
Another nice wee story, Pen. Please send me the portrait for something to throw paperweights at, or some homework to mark, so I don't have to sit inside on a Scottish summer's day watching the rain lashing down outside!

*giggles* Well done!
Author's Response: Thanks! :)
LOL. Dead or alive. Sev is such a good influence.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Career Choices)
Isn't he just? :)
LOL ! She can always practice and become the next chaser for any Quidditch team... *smirk*
Response from sunny33 (Author of Career Choices)
There's a thought! :)
Lovely story, though I would have loved Severus to be alive (I like to pretend that much of what JKR wrote in DH never happened, like the deaths of Severus, Fred, Remus and Tonks..:-))
Response from sunny33 (Author of Career Choices)
Yes, me too! :)
LOL. How very exasperating for Hermione. She'll need to do some target practice.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Career Choices)
She's getting pretty good. Must have had a bit of practice! :)

Ha! I love the idea of a Severus portrait - plenty of time for the devilish sense of humour we all know was there to come out.
Author's Response: I can imagine it would show all the delicious snarkiness without the need to worry about appearances! :)
Cute, I like her throwing the paperweight.

Hehe! :)
