A tall, hatchet-faced man stumbles in from the nexus, and wobbles his way to a very-back booth. Upon which he flops in an awkward, angular sort of way, and then gets himself into a huddle

He kind of picked a crappy time, because someone else was visiting Hollister's today. Someone without pants on. Someone with rollerskates. Somebody who recognizes him.
"HEY, DRUNKY MCDRUNKERPANTS." Oh god Key is skating over there. She scoots into the opposite bench from Snape and gives her biggest, most HAPPY grin. "How's thiiiiiings?"
You think Snape is a bad man now? Imagine what he must have done in his past life to deserve this.
He summons up all of his self control and manages to sit upright. Mostly. Then he glares in a significantly unfocused way in the direction of the lound noises, and slurs "Go'way."
"I'm glad to see you too!!" Either she's ignoring the fact that he's clearly wanting his alone time, or she just doesn't give a shit. "You want something to drink? Some... coffee, maybe?"
Hips appears after Key (wait wait wait Key still works here? Okay, this is going to play merry hell with the payroll. Which version of Key gets the money? If young Key shows back up and tries to work a shift with older Key, will London survive? Stay tuned, same bat time, same bat channel, to find out), and she's eyeballing Snape like he's, well, stinking drunk.
"...Like fun she is. Not even the Whore of Babylon can match this decor."
She joins him in the booth, still giving him the stinkeye. Oh, lawd, drunken!Snape.
"I didn't! We just haven't seen each other for a while. Oh, jeez, you look a mess. Should I find one of the Discworld wizards floating around, get you some Wow-wow sauce?"
"NO." Nooooo Wow-wow sauce! "I have coffee. Coffee is acceptibble. I will sit here and breathe coffee until this goes away." He would have been perfectly happy to do it quietly by HIMSELF, thankyou, if this nosy, noisy...merciful coffee-bearing girl hadn't shown up.
"An' you did. 'S more yellow now, too. Not fair of you women to go 'round changing up your hair on us."

The eyebrows go up. If it were physically or psychologically possible for Snape to look like a puppy, he does now.

"Whore of Babylon. Fumes. Going to put you right out of business, Hipp..Hipplyta." Frowning. Stupid lips.
"You changed your hair." ...Snape notices when people just get a trim?
