if i had a nickel for every time someone tried to kill me i'd have three nickels, which isn't a lot, but it's extremely concerning that it's happened three times
So, I just started "Serpent's Heir" and I was wondering would Tom Riddle keep his muggle prejudices throughout the series or will they fade because Severus grew up mostly muggle and old habits die hard, so would Tom allow it (begrudgingly) or will he ban it altogether?
No matter what I love the idea of Tom panicking so much about being a parent that he would read a book whose title insults him 😂
hello, thank you for reading! i hope you’ve enjoyed the fic so far. in this story, though tom was obviously raised with certain beliefs and is surrounded by blood purists, his goals are slightly different, which he’ll explain to severus in chapter four! he’s much more focused on preserving magical culture and political reform than on blood status itself. i hope this (somewhat) answers your question
also going to use this as shameful promotion - description below!

severus snape is dead. long live severus riddle.
he’s had a dramatic summer: disowning his abusive muggle father, discovering his real dad is the tom riddle (yes, that one), inheriting cursed properties, getting a haircut, and accidentally becoming a political icon. now he's back at hogwarts, hair silky, voice lower, and with a gang of slytherin fanboys trailing behind him.
also, sirius black won’t stop looking at him.
featuring: dueling club disasters, HR-mandated death eater therapy, accidental homoerotic tension, parseltongue problems, family dinners with blood supremacists, and tom riddle trying to be a responsible parent while still occasionally committing light treason.
going through old google docs bc i was looking for notes and i found a folder with my old writing and. i think there was something deeply wrong with 15 year old me
i love this icon bcs its cute but it ALSO forces ppl to acknowledge the fact that clem has an actual face under those masks and the sooner we as a society accept that truth the better off we all will be
