House of Horrors
The friends and loved ones still in my life in a meaningful way make me feel safe and loved and supported. But I had a moment this weekend where I was reminded I still have a little more work to do when it comes to healing the months of gaslighting and lies I experienced last year. A normal, mundane sequence of events triggered some of that trauma in me, and I walked myself through it and calmed myself down, something I'm getting better at with time. But the eye-opening part was that it still surprises me when things are exactly as they seem, there's no trick or secret or trap door and no one is invalidating my feelings. It's like running for cover when you hear gunshots and realizing it's just fireworks.
Life is just happening as it is. And life is complicated enough on its own but I'm happy to have it that way. No fun house mirrors, just clear reflection.

the way teru was introduced proclaiming himself as the ‘main character of this world’ because he was the most powerful person he knew until he met mob. and mob was a threat to him and ultimately to this mindset so he tried to take him down. but even when mob collapsed teru didn’t win because mob refused to fight him and so teru couldn’t prove power to power that he was “better”. instead, when ??? came out, teru was stripped to his core and shown that he was ultimately unimportant in this world.
and in the most recent episode this entire situation is flipped. teru has entirely shunned his old philosophy because mob taught him that he’s not all-powerful, he’s just an average guy. that’s his new identity. but his new philosophy where he chooses to prioritise saving people over fighting back is the most main character thing he has done in the series. teru is yet again broken down to his rawest, but this time, he wins.

the movie having the narrator trying to keep the car from crashing vs in the book he is actively trying to swerve the thing and kill them all... i think it's interesting, because it sets up this given, that in the movie, he wants to live. he is committed to wanting to live. he has so much less suicidal longing, i can think of several moments. this isn't necessarily good or bad, but i think it sets up some assumptions about his characterization that will differ if you rely more on the meat of one versus the other

Momo's Snapedom AU Ask Game!
I do love how the Snapedom has folks who write extensive meta with citations and how the Snapedom has oodles of people making a delightful diversity of AUs that gnaw on the bones of the canon narrative skeleton to cook up a more satisfying story-soup! So I thought it might be fun to put together a few questions for an ask game (after all, the fun part of fandom is interacting with other fans):
Do you have a name and/or a tag and/or a master post for your AU (so I can peruse your blog and admire your creativity)?
What is the premise of your AU (one sentence summary, tropes, your big “What-if” question, etc.!)?
Can you describe your AU badly?  (Because I do love hilariously misleading but not actually inaccurate descriptions of stories)
What your favorite thing about your AU? (Does it make you cackle with glee or do you break your own heart?)
What are the major divergence points in your AU?
Is there any part of the canon narrative you really like to build off of or interrogate with your AU?
Are there themes or motifs or specific concepts in your AU that you hope people will notice?  (Do you want to give hints about your masterful foreshadowing or chat about your extensive world building?  Should we all grab a floriography dictionary when flowers are mentioned?)
What are some key life moments in your AU!Snape’s life that differ from canon!Snape’s life?
How and why does your AU!Snape differ from the canon!Snape?
Would your AU!Snape want to trade places with canon!Snape (and vice versa!)? Why?
Do you know if Severus going to escape the gravitational pull of the canon narrative/fate in your AU?
Do you think any other characters are going to escape the gravitational pull of their canon narrative/fate in your AU?  If so, can any of that extra AU!velocity be attributed to Severus’ actions?
What era does your AU primarily take place in (is it focused on part of the canon timeline? Is the canon timeline adjusted a few years one way or another? Or are you playing with a futuristic sci-fi AU or a historical AU or something else entirely?  Maybe you have a 1998!Snape dealing with life in 1942 or some other combination?)
What is his childhood and/or family life like in your AU?  Is it better than his canon life starting out in Cokeworth?
Does Lily exist in your AU?  Are Severus and Lily friends in your AU?
Do any of the Marauders exist in your AU?  What role do they play in your AU Severus’ life?
Do the Malfoys exist in your AU?  How do they interact with your version of Severus?
Does Voldemort exist in your AU?  Does Severus join his cause at any point in your AU?
Does Dumbledore exist in your AU?  What role does he play in Severus’ life in your AU?
Does Harry Potter exist in your AU?  How does he interact with Severus in your AU?
Is there another canon character that plays a major role in your AU!Snape’s life?  What role do they play and how does it differ from their canon relationship with Snape?
Is an Original Character a major feature and player in your AU?  Who are they? What role do they play AU!Severus’ life?  How do they interact with any other canon characters in your story?
Does Severus have a significant other (or others) in your AU?
Does Severus have children in your AU?
Is Severus Snape the Hogwarts Potions Master in your AU?  If not, what is he doing instead?
Does Severus have any major interests (mycology, astronomy, sci-fi, baking elaborate puff pastries, art forgery, etc.) in your AU that we never got to see canon!Snape indulge in?  Do these interests play a major narrative role?
Do you have a snippet of prose (or an art piece or a list of headcanons) from your AU that you particularly enjoy and want to share?
Free space!  Any other questions folks want to ask?
