AU where Snape survives and names his son “Albus Harry Snape”

[supiprimi]

“Dad… what if… what if I’m a total dumbass?”

“Albus Harry Snape. You were named after two Gryffindors. Both of them were total dumbasses in their very own, unique way, and I am kinda responsible for the death of both of them. So… let that be a warning for you, son.”

I’m a huge sucker for characters that chose to be heroic. Like, no big profecy, no great chosen one moment, just someone who consciously decided to do the right thing because someone fucking had to.

I don’t think there’s an applause gif big enough to properly convey my reaction to this. Also, I love that if anyone tries to say that you’re just “another hack fic writer with no ideas of her own who is jealous of the “real” writers out there”, they could quite literally be crushed under your catalog of award-winning original writing as a response. They can’t dismiss your stance on this topic the way they do to so many unpublished / fanfic writers because you’ve already met all of the standards that they insist someone has before they’ll accept their opinion as worth listening to.

[seananmcguire]

Right?

“Well, fanfic authors never win awards, so–” “WOULD YOU LIKE TO HOLD MY HUGO.” “That’s basically, it’s, you know, the People’s Choice, so–” “LOOK AT MY NEBULA.” “That’s a science fiction award, it doesn’t really–” “LOOK I’VE WON THE ALEX.” “…” “IT’S GIVEN BY THE SAME PEOPLE WHO GIVE THE NEWBURY.” “…” “I’M THE FIRST PERSON TO WIN IT TWICE IN A ROW.” “…well you wrote porn.” “GOSH I SURE DID.”

More attention to this, please. :) From yet another of the I Wrote Fanfic First And I Decline To Feel Shame About It brigade.

(And I also wrote for My Little Pony, which means I may have inadvertently contributed something to Seanan’s state of being. [Which I will file under the “Quiet Unholy Glee” heading.])

@gueneviere-fics we rly need to do that paper some day 

[wildflowerveins]

the most iconic harry potter character is easily blaise zabini’s mother who was so beautiful she got away with murdering each of her seven husbands, all of whom had left her their fortunes when they died. by the time husband #3 died, it was probably really obvious she had a hand in their deaths and yet! four more men decided she was worth it! four more dudes decided dying was an ok sacrifice for her! lmao she is just as iconic as helen of troy, perhaps even more so

imagine going up to stephen fucking king and telling him he’s a terrible fucking person that should kill himself for the morally reprehensible horror novels he writes

TUMBLR REALLY BE LIKE THAT

[powderpinkknives-deactivated201]

to be clear, because apparently my point isnt clear: no one came at stephen king. what i was saying is that tumblr goes after baby writers for writing the same shit big time writers do FOR LIKE THEIR WHOLE CAREER. yall really cry foul at horror fic writers for pretty tame shit just cuz it has a morally reprehensible slasher and sex sprinkled delicately on top and stephen king be out here writing shit like the green mile and IT. don’t fucking pretend it’s about morality and keeping fiction safe. yall jus Bullies.

[deputyrook-deactivated20231017]

i once saw someone with a clive barker url criticizing a writer for writing things they found morally reprehensible and the irony nearly killed me

clive barker has written some of the most fucked up shit i’ve ever read, and he’s one of the most successful horror writers/directors out there. like… tumblr really be like that

Harry: On a scale of 1 to 10, how mad at me are you?

Snape: Eight.

Harry: I can do better than that.

I have never been a fan of Sirius, and never before have I been able to say exactly why. A part, about 10%, of the reason is him bullying Snape. Of course I’m biased since Snape is one of my favourites.

But when I re-read Snape’s Worst Memory, it all became clear.

So we all know the little “prank” Sirius played on Snape in their fifth year. You know, the one that could’ve gotten him killed or turned into a werewolf. It was extremely shitty to Snape, but also to Remus. Remus hated being a werewolf. Wouldn’t killing or turning someone be one of his worst fears? I know Sirius didn’t think it through, but my heavens, what a dick move.

But that’s not everything.

“I’m bored,” said Sirius. “Wish it was full moon.”

“You might,” said Lupin darkly from behind his book.

Really, Sirius? That’s your friend. You know he hates his condition. Are you really that inconsiderate of your friend’s feelings? I feel awful for Remus.

This is also the reason I don’t understand wolfstar or whatever it is.

[agentsphilinda]

I so agree, and I’m not wild about Snape even (I don’t hate him or love him, I honestly just feel neutral towards him). The entire prank as well - not only would that action have led to Snape’s death most likely (bullying is one thing, putting someone in a situation where they could die is another) but it would also leave Remus with someone’s blood on his hands. It would have killed Remus to know he killed someone in his werewolf form, and would likely lead to him being found out and maybe even sent to Azkaban, as a kid, for murder that would be Sirius’s fault.

Sirius doesn’t consider the consequences of his actions. What, to him, is a funny joke, to others is a life threatening situation. I am always astounded people can ship Sirius and Remus because the entire concept of it disgusts me, especially when Sirius and James are right there (and I don’t even care about them, but Sirius didn’t put James in a position to accidentally kill someone).
