Snape's reaction could also be one of extreme caution. He would be constantly on guard, worried that Harry might discover some of his secrets or that Voldemort's supporters might target Harry while he's in his care. So he would be very vigilant, but this might also lead to some over - the - top reactions when Harry does something even slightly out of the ordinary. However, over time, this vigilance could turn into a form of care as he gets used to Harry being around.
Harry would probably be quite resentful at first. He might think Snape is just being his usual unfair self. So, he would be sulky and do the tasks reluctantly.
He could also be secretly amused. Despite his stern exterior, Snape might see a bit of his own unrequited love in their relationship. So, he might give them a stern warning but not be as severe as he usually is.
The other Hogwarts students would have a wide range of reactions. Some might be shocked and gossip about it. Neville, for example, might be sympathetic towards Harry. Draco Malfoy could use it as an opportunity to taunt Harry, but at the same time be a bit envious of the attention this situation brings. The teachers would also have different responses. McGonagall might be worried about the impact on Harry's education and future.
Snape might also keep what he saw to himself at first. Instead of immediately confronting them, he could choose to observe them further. He might be curious about what they were really up to and use his skills as a spy to find out more. This way, he could gather more information before deciding on the best course of action, whether it be punishment or something else entirely.
Snape would probably be very conflicted. On one hand, he has a long - standing grudge against James Potter, Harry's father. But on the other hand, he loved Harry's mother, Lily. So, he might be cold at first, but then his sense of protecting Lily's son could kick in. He would likely be very strict with Harry, as he is with all his students, but also secretly keep an eye on him to make sure he's safe.
Harry would probably be very confused at first. He's so used to Snape's animosity towards him that when Snape forgets who he is, it would be a complete shock. He might also be a bit suspicious, thinking it's some sort of trick. But as time goes on, he could start to feel a bit of pity for Snape, especially if Snape seems lost or confused without his memories of Harry.
Snape could initially be skeptical. Given their long - standing enmity, he might not believe that Harry's apology is sincere at first. He might respond with a cold glare or a sarcastic comment, like 'Potter, your apologies are as empty as your head.'
Snape would likely be angry at first. Harry has always been a source of trouble in his eyes, and running away would just add to that perception. He might mutter some sarcastic remarks under his breath about Potter's irresponsibility.
Snape would probably be quite surprised at first. Hermione is known for her academic prowess and self - sufficiency. His reaction could range from being dismissive, thinking she should be able to solve her own problems, to being intrigued by the nature of her request. If it's something related to the dark arts or a mystery in the wizarding world, his interest might be piqued, but he'd still be guarded in his response. He might even try to use her request as a way to gain some advantage or information for himself.
He would probably be in shock. Snape has spent so much time around Harry in one way or another throughout his years at Hogwarts. His immediate reaction could be disbelief. He might stand there frozen for a moment, unable to process what he's seeing. Then, the full weight of the situation would hit him, and he could break down in a rare display of raw emotion.
