sexy snape art š¤
i cannot BELIEVE i haven't posted this here. anyways heres a doodle i made a while ago, based off this
always imagined snapeās robes to have the vampire collar .
+20 intimidation
ugh im going absolutely feral fantasizing about obsessive snily. snily where they are both totally off their rocker. snily scheming painful ways to get back at the marauders. snily killing severus' father. just!!!! obsessive snily!!! where they are so wrapped up in eachother!! that they don't even realize how crazy they're becoming!!!!! i want snily violence šŖšŖšŖ
where the hell am i gonna find a fic like that šš
Why I donāt read Snily as a romance:
A core theme of the Harry Potter series is āfriendshipā; friendship is a type of relationship that is consistently prioritized in the series over romance and even over family which is one of the things I deeply appreciate about the series because friendship is such a beautiful type of relationship that is so often overlooked. I think the idea that Snapeās patronus could be shaped after a beloved childhood friend, after the first person who showed him true kindness, makes sense with the themes of the story.
It parallels how Harryās most important relationships throughout the series and the ones that most influence the growth of his values and personality remain the friends he made as an abused child deprived of love. Even after he falls in romantic love with Ginny, it is Ron and Hermione he needs most after the war is over.
Itās not that Snape is sitting around pining for Lily romantically, itās that relationships we have throughout our lives shape us forever. I still have a deep love for my childhood friends even if I never speak to them again and they still shaped who I am especially as someone who was abused and bullied, those rare safe connections are important and āalwaysā will be.
Snape is so physically non violent it's honestly kind of weird, considering how nasty he can be verbally. He's by some distance the nastiest Hogwarts teacher in the classroom (I'm ignoring some of the DADA outliers), but at the same time he's by far the most responsible in terms of student safety and appropriate punishments. He's one of the very few who never endangers them in some manner, and the one who most goes out of his way to protect them. I wonder why that is. With Harry it's fairly simple to see why, given that he sees him as James yet has promised to protect him. With other students it isn't so simple.
He's surprisingly non-violent in other respects as well. This suggests that his non-violence (or rather, his aversion to physical violence) is a personality characteristic, not just something he intentionally strives for as a āresponsibleā adult (/sarcasm).Ā
He could have been a notorious Death Eater with his skill in dueling and spell-creation, but he wasn't. Sirius didn't know he was a DE, Karkaroff didn't accuse him of any specific violent crime, Bellatrix accuses him of deliberately avoiding the action, and he didnāt kill anyone before Dumbledore. He was relegated to being a spy at Hogwarts by Voldemort, which meant he probably had a relatively clean record (and imo, I don't think Snape revealed the full extents of his talents to Voldemort in the First War).
In PoA, he restrains Lupin without physically hurting him in the Shack, despite thinking he's working with Sirius. He threatens to give Lupin and Sirius to the Dementors, but when given the chance to do that when Sirius is unconscious, he takes him and the Trio back to Hogwarts (he does want Sirius Kissed, but he also wants Dumbledore's and the Minister's approval). Compare that with Sirius and Remus, who were going to kill Peter in cold blood in front of three teenagers, even though Peter's testimony could clear Sirius.
In OOtP, when he and Sirius are arguing, Sirius draws his wand out first.
IIRC, there are only three times we see Snape using magic to hurt someone potentially seriously. 1) During SWM when he cuts James's cheek. This was self-defense after he'd already been ganged up on, hung upside-down, and choked with soap. SWM also happened after the Prank, so he thought Sirius (and James) meant to kill him. 2) Avada to kill Dumbledore. This was a mercy kill. 3) Sectumsempra, aimed at a DE but accidently hit Fred. This was him trying to protect Lupin. Dropping the branch on Petunia was accidental magic, he only used Expelliarmus (as opposed to something nasty) to knock down Lockheart, he only gives Harry a magical bitch-slap when Harry's stupidly chasing after him and the other DEs in HBP, and during his fight with McGonagall he was trying not to hurt her.
He's not just non-violent, he's non-violent compared to other "good" characters even when he has the ample opportunity (and probably the desire) to be violent. He invented hexes as a teenager, but no one (not Lily, James, Sirius, or Remus) ever accuses him of hexing people for fun like James does, and he's not on the detention cards either. He probably did use his hexes against the Marauders, but as self-defense when they attacked him first.
He was the victim of extreme physical bullying courtesy of the Marauders, his dad likely physically abused him and his mother, and he's surrounded by DEs who get tortured as punishment by Voldemort and also torture/murder their victims.Ā
As others have said on this post, I think on some level he might be averse to physical violence because of his experiences. This doesn't necessarily have to be as a moral viewpoint (although that's probably part of it), but witnessing physical violence might have a triggering effect on him. He's also indirectly responsible for getting James and Lily killed and was a Death Eater, so he knows the guilt that comes from that. It could be that he doesn't want to knowingly endanger/seriously physically hurt anyone else and have that on his conscience as well. Ā
This is an excellent addition.
The next time I speak to āa HP fanā who asks me why I like Snape ābecause heās a creepy incel stalker bully with gross hairā, or whatever it is the kids are saying these days, I think Iām done with trying to describe my enjoyment of the nuances of his character and how much I Donāt Care that heās mean. I think next time, Iām just gonna straight up say āSnape can get itā and then change the subject
I love the implication by Lunaās mum dying that spell creation is extremely dangerous. Makes teen Snape look like a total maniac. Mad scientist vibes.
Professor!
Snape tries to chill in the dingiest cupboard at Hogwarts to avoid everybody but the Slytherin students will find him if they need to complain about something
Yeah, I may want to top Snape and make him whimper, but likeā¦I also want him on top of me. I want to feel his bodyweight over me. I want to feel his hot breath on my face. I want to feel his long hair tickling me. I want him to pin me down with his hands. Is that too much to ask?
god i miss him (deceased fictional character twice my age)
Does anyone else find it ironic how the fandom clings to the idea that Snape is the biggest reason Sirius left Grimmauld Place in Order of the Phoenix...despite the Half Blood Prince stating that"Harry clung to this notion because it enabled him to hate Snape which felt satisfying..."
This feels satisfying to Harry because Harry believes that Snape doesn't care that Sirius is dead, but it isn't until 'The Prince's Tale' in The Deathly Hallows that we realise that this isn't true either.
One of the basic things you have to understand about Snape is that his hatred or dislike of people does not stop him from saving or trying to save people. This all starts from the turning point on the hill all those years ago, when Dumbledore humbles Snape into turning his selfishness into selflessness.
Snape asks for James and Harry's life too. And when Dumbledore tells Snape Harry must die, and states "how many people have you watched die?" Snape responds "lately only those I could not save."
Sirius is one of those people.
