Description
Unlearning is always harder than learning, and you learn how to have an argument like you learn almost everything else, by watching the examples people around you set. Severus learned that way, too, and the examples he had and the thought he might enact what he learned scares him.

EDIT: I should add a little more of what I wanted here so as to avoid confusion. In this one, Severus was raised by a Tobias (whom I picture as physically abusive) and has learned to see his parents behaviour as normal back then - as the children of abusive parents are wont to do. As a result, again like many people who were raised by abusive parents, he is actively combating reactions which he has come to think of as normal. He would not hit Minerva as he never really shows physically violent behaviour and I'm guessing that as a result of his upbringing he resents physical violence and would go out of his way to avoid it, concentrating on magic instead, but that does not mean that there isn't a voice inside that tells him that kind of behaviour would be normal in a fight. Sorry about the TL;DR explanation.

A quick one inspired by two beautiful stock silhouettes I found.
