Ok, here’s the deal. I thought of this opening and I want you, yes YOU, to write the rest of the story. Take it where you will, there is no specific direction I want you to go, I just want to know what Harry would have to do to get points off Snape. (Although if someone were to head in the direction I went in, it would be much appreciated!)

So here’s your starting point:

‘I wonder what it would take to get him to say ‘ten points to Gryffindor’,’ Harry mused as yet another new insult was added to the long list of adjectives Professor Snape used to describe Harry’s potion making skills.

The only condition is that Harry and Snape are NOT father and son, that’s just a step too far from cannon for my liking.

Much looking forward to reading your answers,

Sev Rickman

PS - If you do take up this challenge I'd appreciated it if you sent me a link to where your story can be found so others can find it too.
