(Halloween) McGonagall:(not dressed for Halloween) While we're all sober... Creative costume, Filius. Flitwick: (as a pumpkin) Thanks! It was a last-minute resort! Pomona's is more creative than mine! You look positively terrifying, Pomona. Sprout: (as a doxy) Thank you! What are you dressed as, Severus? Snape: (already wasted) Oh, myself. My horrible life choices, coupled with my pitiable childhood and the trauma I have suffered through, have sculpted me into creature even dementors fear to behold, and surpasses the terrors of any mystical or legendary beings woven into existence to limit our excursions into freely exploring the unknown. McGonagall: Flitwick: Sprout: Snape: *toasts them with whisky* Fear me, creatures of happiness and capable of pity. (stumbles off towards refreshments table)

ALL BY MYYYSEEEEEELF

Alcohol

Snape, with a glass of firewiskey : said every fanfiction ever

Like I understand it matches his brooding aesthetic but .... it's to obvious. So I'ma introduce some of my headcannons to spice it up.

One hc is where Severus hates the taste of alcohol so he only drinks really fruity alcoholic beverages or like eats vodka gummy bears.

Another one is where when he was young he accidentally to a sip out of Tobias' cup/bottle when he wasn't looking and he liked it... And thay scared the shit out of him, so he only drinks hard alcohol while with people he can trust but for the most part he goes for the types of alcohol that has some type of fruit extract.

A couple of scenario's:

Going out for drinks with Lucius was always a pain because he would go for the hard liquors and spirits

"Only a little sip Sev"

"No."

"But whyyyyy"

"Cease your whining, and it is because one of us has to be a responsible adult and apparate us home.... Safely Luce. I prefer all of my limbs arranged in a specific order"

*Pout*

Aurora and Narcissa are constantly stealing his gummy bears or taking sips from his 'Sex on a beach'

"Stop that Cissa"

"Put my gummies down Now"

"Aurora that is my drink.... I recall you ordering a Gin and Tonic"

"Alright... I'm getting ready to stab you with this umberella"

"I hope you choke"

But in all seriousness I just imagine him with his imposing aura sipping a fruity drink and eating Vodka gummy bears.

There was this one instance where Severus was out with his Besties and his girlfriend ans he kept buying this teal colored drink and he was knocking them hoes back, and didn't feel (nor show) a hint of intoxication. One after another and then in the middle of a conversation he just passed out.

Bonus:

Lucius

Narcissa

Aurora

Severus

"Whelp I guess Severus is taking us home again"

*ZzZzZzZzZzZzZz*

"Severus?"

"Git-Face?"

"Shhh he's sleeping"

*round of maniac giggling*

"Let's get him home...I have an idea" *whispers to the table*

"Oh....This'll be good"

Severus, The next morning:

Snapetober Day 13: sectumsempra

@snapetober (Leave a comment on my ao3 :))

Severus Snape stormed into the bathrooms. It did not even take him a full second to comprehend what had just happened here, what spell Harry had used on Malfoy. As he crouched over Draco, starting on the healing charm he had invented as a direct counter to his course, he thought back to why he had thought of the curse in the first place.

He had been the same age as Harry was now, and while he had never actually used the curse on anyone while he was still a student he had thought about it a great deal. Barely a day went by where Severus did not feel like cursing Black and Potter, to give them a taste of their own medicine and watch them suffer for once, instead of only ever being the victim. In the end his conscience always won, it held him back from stepping down to their level. No matter how much they deserved it, he did not deserve the guilt that it would create, nor the judgement of anyone who worshipped the marauders. Severus is still pretty sure that he would have been expelled for a stunt like this.

Of course Severus knew now, that he was not that much better than them himself. Certainly not in his death eater days, his rational brain knows he has done far worse things to innocent, and guilty, people, than the marauders did, but that does not make them any less wrong for all of their bullying and attacking. Realistically speaking they had just as much to do with his joining the death eaters as the Slytherins that groomed him from his first year on. Putting this seed in his brain that being with them was the only place he could ever feel accepted.

However, as much as Severus would want to, he knows he cannot put all the blame on others. He has to take accountability for his actions. It was him ho actively decided to join a cult and it was him who overheard the prophecy and willingly delivered it to the Dark Lord. And now he was the one who had taught Harry Potter how to slice up his enemies. He doubted the boy even knew what the spell did, his surprised expression certainly did not suggest so, and somehow that only made it worse. There was a new feeling of guilt in the pit of his stomach, a new thing to add to the hundred others that he wish he had no part in. He also saw a bit of himself in Harry and that infuriated him. It made his angry for the boy's sake and it made him angry because this school and it's headmaster still did not care an ounce about their students well-being and it made him feel better about his decision to not sectumsempra James Potter, while also making him feel slightly jealous that Harry got to experience using this spell on his school bully, while he never did.

He might have been harsher with Harry had it not been for this whirlpool of emotions in him. He would sort through it and leave the correct punishment for later. He suspected that the guilt Harry was sure to be feeling would be more than enough for now, anyway.

why is this still the worst thing to imagine

[slytherkins]

Ugh. I forgot how hurty that chapter was. 

Uuugggghhhhh. 

I think that’s enough angst for one night. 

I LIKE THIS FIC THO. Getting through the first two is worth it to be able to appreciate this one. Adult PoVs for the win.
