Snape's POV
"Those two girls are confusing." I say, Dumbledore had gathered us here to speak to about the two first years that the hat couldn't sort.
"Indeed they are." Minerva agrees
"Glad we all agree." Dumbledore says as he enters. "Now, Minerva. I was hoping you could ask the girls to come up here after thier lessons tomorrow."
"Of course Albus."
"Thank you. Make sure you tell them the password is "Sugar Lilly's". Now Severus, if I could have a word." I follow Dumbledore as he heads up to the chambers at the top of the stairs. "These girls, or at least one of them, were very attached to Lily, and were devstated when she died."
"My Lily? Lily Evans?"
"Yes Severus." Dumbledore contiues on, and I wonder where exactly he is going with this. "I hoping that you would talk to her and tell her more about Lily."
"Dumbledore, you may have forgotten but I don't much enjoy talking about Lily anymore."
"Severus please. You have no idea how much this might mean to her. The way Nymphadora's father, Ted, explained it, well, it seems to me that she saw Lily as a kind of second mother. He said for about two months after anything and everything would start her crying."
"Wow. Two whole months." I snark, venom dripping from the words.
"Though seemingly insignificant to an adult Severus, for a child of only seven years it is quite a long time."
"Fine. I'll talk to her."
"Thank you Severus."
"Wait, how do you tell the twins apart?"
"By their eyes. Andromeda has eyes of a bright blue sky and Nymphadora has emerald green eyes, almost the exact shade Lily's were."
"Eye colour changing potion?"
"No Severus, she was born with green eyes."
