arcanetrivia: a light purple swirl on a darker purple background (snape humour (not greasy))
He violently poured himself a large mug of coffee

I know the sort of thing they probably mean, but I can't help thinking this adverb was an unclear choice, because it brings to mind a lot of other (rather silly) possibilities for the nature of the violence:

With a sword?
In the middle of a screaming fit?
By swinging the pot in a wild arc so as to roughly sling the stuff into the cup?
By bashing the pot against your head repeatedly until maybe some gets in your mug?
Or perhaps, since this is Severus before coffee, with a nice hearty Cruciatus?

(Oh please, someone please draw Snape in a dressing gown yelling "Crucio!" at a coffee pot.)

"Mmm. More. Harder."

Sirius grunted with the effort. "Severus, I--"

"Shut up. More, I said. --Oh, oh yes. Like that."

Not that Sirius didn't enjoy hearing Severus reduced to such babble, but he was exhausted, damn it. "Severus, my hands are cramping."

"You should have thought of that before you offered this as a birthday gift."

"Maybe you're young enough to do this six times a day, but I--"

"We're the same age, mutt. And six times a day? Who has the time? --More to the left. Ohhh, yesssss..."

Now Sirius knew why he'd never seen Severus's hair properly clean.
