Things that the Harry Potter films left out about Snape

Called Lily a mudblood, then tried to cover himself by saying that she alone was different from other muggleborns

Didn’t see a problem with his friends performing Dark Magic on Mary MacDonald, compared it to the Marauders pranks

Dropped a tree branch on Petunia

Attacked Remus in PoA whilst he was trying to explain things and literally said the words ‘I’ll drag the werewolf. Perhaps the Dementors will have a kiss for him too’

Continued to refuse to listen to Sirius’s explanation even though he was being compliant and had only once tried to fight back, without magic, after Snape attacked Remus

After he found out he wasn’t actually going to get an Order of Merlin, or have the satisfaction of seeing two innocent men in jail, he exposed Remus as a werewolf

Ripped a photo of James and Lily and Harry being happy and in love and a family in half and stole the half with Lily on it

Actively tried to get the Marauders expelled from Hogwarts

Dumbledore was ‘disgusted’ by his attitude towards James and Harry 

Harry distrusted Snape that much he literally thought he was trying to poison Remus

Abused his position as Head of House to unfairly reward points to Slytherin and take points from other houses, especially Gryffindor, far beyond the extent it was shown in the movies

Told Neville he would feed Trevor Neville’s failed potion so the possibly fatal results would teach him a lesson

Mocked Tonks when her Patronus changed, despite the fact his also changed to match Lily’s

Insulted Hermione’s appearance and told her he didn’t see any difference after Draco cursed her teeth to grow and then watched as she ran out crying

lets not forget about ‘‘You would have been well served if he’d killed you!‘‘

no idea if it's my hormones, what I've seen in the news lately, the weight of living the past few years, or just because it's Judi Dench...but this impromptu performance really made me cry for a good ten minutes, no kidding.

[jstras7917]

Judi Dench is a legend.

that guy who went to space and said something along the lines of how it shattered his illusions about the wonders of the universe entirely because it was just cold and empty and dead and vast and everything worth marvelling at was back down on earth. yeah

Girl, the meek better start inheriting the earth faster, because what the fuck is this

happy new year! just came on here to say that i was rewatching deathly hallows 1 and thinking about what a concidence it was that harry was both the chosen one and a descendant of ignotus peverell, only to realize that it wasn't a concidence at all.

ignotus asked for the invisibility cloak so Death couldn't find him before he was ready, and before he finally greets Death, he passes the cloak off to his children so Death cannot find them before they're ready, either. the assumption is that the cloak continues down the family tree in this fashion until it inevitably reaches the potters, james specifically. dumbledore "borrowed" the cloak from james, ultimately removing it from the family tree (for a time), thus preventing james from being able to hide himself, lily, and harry when voldemort found the safe house, resulting in both his and lily's death and harry's almost-death.

in other words, when the cloak was taken from ignotus' line, Death was finally able to find his family (in the form of voldemort) before they were ready to die.

(this connection runs even deeper in book considering harry uses the cloak throughout the battle of hogwarts to evade voldemort, revealing himself only when he is ready. what's more, the reveals happen twice: first, in the forest, when harry is willingly walking towards his death and second, in the great hall, when harry finally has all of the information and all of the mysticism and fear of voldemort has finally been removed. in fact, from memory, harry even exclusively refers to voldemort as tom in the final scene, completely destroying the power dynamic voldemort has worked so hard to create between them. therefore, one might say, quite like his ancestor, harry only removed the cloak of invisibility when he was ready to die and, when he did so, he greeted Death as an equal.)

He saw her in a rare moment when she was not surrounded by her friends, so he sat next to her and said “hey” and smiled, as always trying to find millions of excuses to talk to her.

[somuchfuckingsalt]

These photos of Daniel Radcliffe and Bonnie Wright look more like Harry and Ginny than Harry and Ginny do in the movies.

[accio-sirius-black]

This is now accepted as a canon Hinny. Like I feel like this is how they would be at any big event for either of their careers.

Can’t “like” it again, already did. Guess I need to reblog.

books i read in 2023: happy place by emily henry

“We light the sparklers Parth found in the garage, and we write our names in the dark, impermanent but all the brighter and more blazing for it.

This is how I used to think of love. As something so delicate it couldn’t be caught without being snuffed out. Now I know better. I know the flame may gutter and flare with the wind, but it will always be there.”
