3 professors forced to share a hotel room during a travel to a wizard expo ... due to budget cut because Hogwarts have sustained yet another annual Voldemort-related disaster( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Snape's patronus being a doe because he's "obsessed" with Lily: too JKR of a take, I hate her

Snape's patronus being a doe because Lily was his closest friend and is associated with all of his happiest memories: much more wholesome and realistic, let us remember that platonic love is just as important as romantic love

Snape's patronus being a doe because it matches him personally, its everything he wished he could show he was, its an image his own wasted potential and shows the way he thrive to be someone better, purer, and actually acknowledge how hurt and scared he was as a child, and how brave he was to try and makeup for his terrible mistakes: my favourite take.

Seeing people who hate Snape say things like “Snape cared about no one but himself” as if Severus Snape wasn’t his own biggest hater is so amusing to me.

Do you sometimes wake up and think, "Oh! Severus wanted the DADA position not because he loves it more than Potions but because he somehow knew it was cursed and he wanted to d!e"

I find a lot of Marauders fandom (and fandom as a whole, but I notice it more with Marauders fandom) has no idea what child abuse looks like and how abusive family dynamics work - particularly involving abused children.

fwiw as hesitant as I am to give JKR credit, she knocked it out of the park with Harry and Sirius and Snape, but when fandom writes Regulus it tends to… hm… not quite understand how the scapegoat/golden child dynamic works and how rapidly that dynamic can shift when the scapegoat is out of the picture.

and I do think JKR was very clear that Sirius was favored as a young child, probably until he went to Hogwarts and thus Gryffindor, at which point the dynamic shifted – and suddenly Regulus was the good one; the one receiving all the praise – and then when Sirius left, it shifted yet again, leaving Regulus to uphold all of the expectations of his family alone, with little to no room for error.

I don’t think Regulus ever felt bad for Sirius, and probably resented him, at first for being the favored child, then for not obeying, and finally for leaving.

I don’t think there was ever any need to push him into becoming a Death Eater, either – what we see in his room is evidence of that, as well as what Sirius and Kreacher say – in large part because he would’ve parroted his parents’ beliefs, and also because he would have felt as if it were his responsibility to make up for his brother’s “failings” – to his parents (his mother was soooo heartbroken, after all 🙄), and to Pureblood society as a whole.

I like to think they’d have reconciled as adults, once Regulus realized how toxic his parents were, but who knows? There’d be a lot of resentment to work through on both ends.

mar*uder fans collectively ignoring this part of the book because it crumbles their entire narrative about snape

Defending Severus Snape is not enough. I need a fucking gun

I cannot, the marauders fandom want regulus to be snape so bad…

More of sneep , all are sketchy because making a finished drawing killed my grandma OKAY ???

marauders snaters who love jegulus really is just diet snames huh

like you want everything snape has but you hate him for some inexplicable reason (even though james, sirius and lupin aren't angels either but that's waved away)

well, here's a slytherin character who has two lines of characterization you can project a personality onto that suspiciously acts just like snape without the moral greyness, so it's "ok" to like and ship him

People calling every severus looking mf Sirius is my villain origin story

SAMEEEEE OMGGGG I HATE IT SM. ESP WHEN THE SEVERUS LOOKALIKE THAT GETS CALLED SIRIUE IS MORE FEMININE LOOKING AND HAS MORE OF A LONER PERSONALITY. “he’s a Sirius variant / he’s so Sirius” LIKE WDYM BRO THAT IS LITERALLY SNAPE
