Severus Snape Headcanons for my upcoming Fanfic!
Uses Muggle supplies
For studying & note taking in class because they're cheaper than Wizarding supplies.
Ex: spiral notebooks, wooden pencils, pens
Only ever uses his parchment and ink quills when doing class work and essays that need to be turned in.
Professor Flitwick noticed and charmed his pen so that the ink will last until the school year ends.
"Best to not tell" is all he said when he did before awarding him 10 points for his cleverness and resourcefulness.
Is Actually Left Handed
But because Tobias deemed it another "freakish" trait from his mother, broke his fingers every time he caught him writing, forcing him to use his right hand, therefore making him ambidextrous.
Reason why his school work is immaculate and his notes are a complete mess. because even though his left hand has a slight tremor, he still uses it in the comfort of his own privacy.
His Mother is Jewish so He Knows a Bit of Hebrew
When he's in Potions or any other class that require numbers, he only ever counts in the language under his breath.
The Marauders (not Remus) think his mumblings are incantations of Dark Magic spells because of course they do.
He Was a Late Bloomer
Meaning his first growth spurt happened during the summer between 4th and 5th year.
His voice changed to a deep throaty tone that everyone immediately pointed out. Both Severus and Eileen mastered honey-lime tea.
He refused to speak for almost half of first term & only relented when Regulus told him how his voice is perfect for Reading Nights. Especially if he's reading in Hebrew.
(the Slytherins have a short of "poetry night" which I find kinda cute)
He Steals the Library's Candles
Madam Pince is convinced its the Marauders so she has made countless complaints to Headmaster Dumbledore, but he just lets it be. Claiming how wonderful it is that students are working so hard into the night on their studies that they need the extra light.
Only that Severus uses the candles to coat and seal his more expensive and/or important potion ingredients since their wax is of more higher quality and its charmed to last longer than regular candles.

I've only posted a brief Prologue of sorts but feel free to check it out! ✌🏽
And if you like a bit of Snirius too, chapter 8 for To Take Your Name is currently being edited 😉
Can someone tell me why Italian Tobias Snape just feels so right? Cause I'm over here thinking that and how that could work with the pure-blood Russian Prince family. Like imagine sev with an Italian accent when pissed off and a Russian accent when panicking. Imagine that in a fanfic with severitus and/or James Potter x Severus Snape or James Potter x Severus Snape x Lily Evans Potter. God now I'm in desperate need for a fanfic with those themes
