if you judge them as people rather than as elements of a story – not in terms of the writing or how well they're written.

who's worse, Sirius or James?

1. as a person.

2. who was worse to Severus.

3. which one do you personally find more likeable / off-putting?

This is ultimately a very personal question because it comes down to each person's ethics and overall worldview.

For me, the biggest difference in how I see the two is that Sirius is someone who, despite having "rich people problems," still had problems. He was raised in what was essentially an ideological cult, and that has huge implications for your values and moral boundaries. Violence was normal to him. Using violence was normal to him. Feeling superior to other people was normal to him, even if the target changed.

So I can understand why he would perceive Severus—or anyone else—as an "other," and why all those attitudes he learned from his family, despite swearing he rejected them, would still come out when dealing with someone he saw that way. For his family, Muggle-borns and Muggles were the "other." Sirius rejected that idea, but mostly because he wanted to rebel against them. That doesn't automatically mean he deconstructed the worldview he grew up with. He still divides people into "us" and "them"; he just changes who belongs in each category. Severus is an "other" to him, and he treats him accordingly, because that's what he was taught. Simply wearing Gryffindor robes and hanging out with blood traitors doesn't erase everything your family drilled into your head.

James, on the other hand, comes from what appears to be a genuinely progressive family. The Potters were removed from the Sacred Twenty-Eight precisely because they didn't agree with blood purity ideology. His parents are portrayed as loving, kind, and supportive. So what's his excuse? He shouldn't see people as "others." He shouldn't be violent, abusive, or sadistic. And yet he is. While Sirius's behavior clearly stems from the values he was taught by his family, James's behavior seems entirely self-generated. He's like that because he actively chooses to be. That's the kind of person he decides to become. To me, that's much worse.

If you're raised to be a bad person and you become a bad person, you're still responsible for your actions, of course. But if you never question what you've been taught, that's unfortunately a very difficult cycle to break, especially when you're young. But if you're raised with every possible advantage to become a decent person and you still turn out cruel, then I'm sorry, but you're either a sociopath or just a complete asshole. There's really no other way I see it.

That said:

James. I think he's worse for all the reasons I've already explained.

I think they're actually at a very similar level overall, but Sirius almost got Snape killed, and James had to stop him. So on that specific point, I have to give it to Sirius.

I like Sirius far, far more. James honestly embodies almost everything I find repulsive in a straight man. And James is a fucking normie dude, at least Sirius has mommy issues, but James is just a guy.

[im-whateveryou-want]

I headcanon that Severus really wanted to be invited to the slug club at one point. It's not that he wanted to be apart of the parties because he definitely didn't it's just that apart of him always wanted to be acknowledged for his success.

He would never admit to wanting Slughorns praise I think the most he'd do was complain about it to Lilly and even then it would be a, "how did he get in but I didn't" type of thing. He'd always insist he didn't actually care once Lilly offered to say something to Slughorn.

I think the resentment would even carry to when they both worked as professors. I can imagine him looking at who got invited and judging. And him getting snotty once he hears about a party he's throwing.

I think it's just fun to think about him desperately craving someone (a trusted adult) to be proud of him.

imagine:

5th year. the marauders have just finished creating the map.

before this, severus can at least convince himself that running into james and sirius is bad luck. they’re bullies.

hogwarts is only so big. eventually your paths cross. they know where he is.

he skips dinner to hide in the library. they’re there.

he leaves potions early to take a route no one uses. they’re waiting.

he studies in an abandoned classroom three floors away from where he usually sits. somehow they “happen” to walk in five minutes later.

he starts changing his routines. doubling back. deliberately taking longer routes. hiding in broom cupboards just to see if they’re actually following him.

it doesn’t matter.

they always find him.

and severus’s paranoia is now boundless. because no one believes him? how could they? when he doesn’t even have proof. when they all think he’s just being like this because the marauders are always on his nerves.

so he decides to solve the problem himself.

is someone telling them where he is? is hogwarts enchanted? are they using some obscure tracking spell? he starts testing hypotheses because this is impossible. no fifteen-year-olds should be able to predict another person’s movements with this kind of accuracy.

while trying to figure out how they keep finding him, he starts noticing all the other things that don’t make sense. remus disappears every month. pomfrey escorts him off somewhere. the others get weirdly defensive whenever anyone asks where he’s been. there’s that bloody tree on the grounds no one’s allowed near.

in severus’s head, all of these clues become one giant mystery. he thinks if he figures out what they’re hiding, he’ll finally understand how they always know where he is.

and then sirius realizes exactly what’s happening. instead of just telling him how to get past the whomping willow, he says something like,

“you want to know how we keep finding you? go through the willow tonight.”

and of course severus goes.

please don't read if you're sensitive to.. butchering? okie///

you've been warned.

God, i've just realised something. well, like, everyone knows that moment where...

Sirius’s head turned. He had become very still, like a dog that has scented a rabbit. “Excellent,” he said softly. “ Snivellus.”

so anyway, the Dangling Jinx = Levicorpus, that spell invented by Severus, the one that was used against him. /there's a slight difference, though, with my analogy in that it hoists a person up by one ankle. although, say, in the games it's sometimes shown as two/ but even so.

you know who else gets hoisted by the ankles and hung upside down? rabbits. before they're skinned.

////

i'll say it again.

rabbits

like a dog that has scented a rabbit.

are hung upside down by their legs

There was another flash of light, and Snape was once again hanging upside down in the air.

before they're skinned.

“Who wants to see me take off Snivelly’s pants?”

[inthemoodforblastt]

There were literally three other people there. The books actually implied most of the torturing was done by Bellatrix and her husband btw. Who says Barty did anything? He was probably not even told what they were gonna do, he probably just thought they're gonna look for Voldemort (his literal father figure after his own dad had abused him)

The reason Snape is different is he was literally a grown man traumatizing kids lmao. Barty was barely an adult

Barty is considered Voldemort’s most loyal servant; Voldemort himself explicitly says so in the fourth book. He’s known for being a sadistic torturer, which is why he ends up in Azkaban in the first place. And, just like Bellatrix, he enjoys torturing people. It is a canonical fact that Barty took part in the torture of the Longbottoms and had a great time doing it, just like Bellatrix did. They are on the same level, and at that point in the story they are BOTH Voldemort’s most loyal and fanatical followers.

As an ADULT, Barty murders his own father, kidnaps a man, impersonates him for an entire year, physically assaults children, and spends that year plotting how to deliver Harry to Voldemort so he can be killed.

If your comment isn’t just blatant trolling, then honestly, you should seek professional help, because you have a seriously disturbing problem if you genuinely think Barty Crouch was in any way more excusable than Snape. Seriously, get medicated.

Snirius or Jeverus!

I know a lot of people fight over these two ships, they're so fun. Personally, there was only one fic I fucked with for Jeverus, very few for Snirius too. It's the aspect of forgiveness and the past bullying that's often passed over simply to get on with the romance of the characters for me. And sure, love it, entraining to read too, however I feel like we lose something when it's completely ignored and watered down. I need the angst, the distress and the hatred. That type of hurt and trauma doesn't go away, and let's be very clear bullying results in trauma and lasting pain. And these ships are very much victim and bully to lovers, and I doubttttttt with strong T such a relationship can smoothly transition to lovers. That's why I adored with my entire life slow burn with these ships, make us bleed for lol.

As I say this, my own fic needs a little rework done with these core ideas, and I can't wait. I'm going to get gritty with it!!!

[meteoromancy]

I feel like these parts of Snape's Worst Memory are often overlooked? Especially the part where Lily says that James is just as bad as Severus. i think the only reason she later forgives James but not Severus is because 1. she can't avoid James like she can easily avoid Severus, so she can see him bettering himself over the following years, while she still avoids Severus & 2. James had other friends and acquaintances who were better people and made him better himself, but Severus really only had Lily.

[ernest-pamphilow]

i mean. . .. . Butcher and Homelander are like if you took Sirius and Snape's most ignored traits and multiplied them by 1000.

[gisel0s]

I'll let you lot be the judges of this....

Severus is peacefully sleeping in the arms of his lover....

[gisel0s]

He's so tragic HELP

[0nnniti]

Don’t let your Snivellus run around unsupervised, kids!

Wip ‼️
