excerpt from an unpublished fanfic i wrote in 2014
The teapot had sunk into the melting counter and was emitting steam. Severus levitated it out and extinguished the fire, then repeated the extinguishing spell until the counter stopped smoking. "Is something burning in there?" came Black's voice from where he was hiding behind the doorway. "It is nothing Black, the lease on my soul expired moments ago and it has only just returned from the fires of hell. I'm sure it will adjust, given time."
