At some point, Harry's stomach was finally empty and there were only dry strangling sounds.
Severus helped his visibly weakened and severely trembling partner get up and led him to the sink. after rinsing his mouth and washing his face, the Potions master cast a spell that neutralized the taste of stomach acid.
On the way back to the sofa landscape Severus called for Dobby, who of course appeared immediately.
"What can Dobby do for you? Oh, Merlin, Harry, what happened? "
"Dobby, please get a calming potion and nausea from my supply cupboard."
The little house elf nodded and dodged off eagerly.
Meanwhile, Severus, with Harry in his lap, sat back and stroked his back.
Harry clung to his husband and even wrapped his tail around his waist.
"Here's the potions."
Thankfully, the jailer took the elf from the two vials. he uncorked it and gave it to the little one. The cat boy swallowed them without complaining, he did not even grimace at the bad taste.
After some quiet time, and both Severus and Dobby caressed the boy reassuringly, he looked up.
"Are you telling us what has upset you so much?"
Severus put his hand on the kid's cheek.
"The letters. some were harmless, there were only congratulations in it, so I was probably too much in safety. I also thought that only in the enchanted post office would something bad happen. Well, wrong thought, unfortunately I do not know a spell that sorted out such letters. "
He pointed to the already open letters and Severus reached for it.
He placed those who held positives aside and focused on the others.
It was not long before the potions master was seething again. These idiots had actually dared to give up ORDERS on body parts and organs of his kittens. Some even went so far as to ask him, Severus, to make the potions they needed. The worst thing, though, was that these insults were writing to the human race, which they needed all of this for.

Against chronic diseases
To grow limbs again
Against the aging process
Against infertility
Against curses
To increase the magic power

and then these "petitioners" also had the nerve to say, for him as a hero of the wizarding world it would be natural to do these little favors. Besides, he would be well paid.
Surprisingly, all those who received such requests belonged to the old nobility or were very rich. Congratulatory letters, on the other hand, had been written exclusively by ordinary people.
Before Severus could say anything about this shit, Harry handed him another letter.
"The letters you've read so far have been extremely upsetting and I've been a bit sick, but this one was the worst."
He handed the paper over to Severus and then cuddled against his chest again.
Severus, on the other hand, began to read.

Dear Severus!

I have to say, it's amazing things that you hear about yourself. Since you are all leading us by the nose for years, pretending to be a Death Eater and penniless, and then that.
And now you also grab the most coveted bachelor of the magical world, which incidentally also contains two magical creatures, one of them rarely like anything else.

To be honest, your supposed affiliation with You-Know-Who was the reason why we avoided you at the time of your studies. Nobody wanted to have anything to do with a Death Eater, let alone when he was friends with Lucius Malfoy.
it was sad, you had so much talent and you wanted to waste it in such a horrible way, that was the biggest shame for us.
But now that we have learned the truth, everything changes, of course.

We of the Honorable Brotherhood of Mephisticuffs have decided to take you into our covenant!
You would not have expected that, am I right? in our circle only the noblest, most powerful, richest, most talented and of course most magical of all wizards are recorded and you are allowed to count yourself from now on.

You are well aware that our community does a great deal of charity work and all our brothers are a big family.
In a family, of course, everything is shared - no fear, not the money. Except for the annual membership fee, we do not ask our brothers for any additional gold. What is shared, however, is the knowledge of magic and its power. We only record the strongest ones and in order to keep it that way, rituals are performed time and time again, sharing the knowledge of the individual with everyone else. The Muggles would call it a copy process.
This ritual is only known to our group, which is why the Nameless man tried to get us on his side, but we remained steadfast.
But these are not the reasons that have made our brotherhood so strong.
As already mentioned, everything is shared with us, including the partners. Not only does this have fun and variety, but also a practical one. By mixing the couples it comes naturally to pregnancies and that is quite intended. Since not only our members but also their partners are invariably very powerful magicians, the children also have exceptionally strong magic.
