Snape Products You Should Totally Buy #4

If you don't own one, you'll definitely want one. A Snape action figure. Now, I've noticed that there's a huge variety of Snape figures... Some of them are better quality than others, some look exactly like Alan Rickman while others don't, and some of them are stuck in one position while others can move their arms and legs. I'd really like one that can move his arms and legs, because they're so freaking adorable.

They also range in prices, the collectibles being more expensive. There's tons of websites that sell them, but Amazon's a good place, so I'll just link to there.

And if, for some reason, you didn't know that there were Snape action figures, here's a picture:

Sadly, his robes don't actually billow.

Fanfiction Friday #18

Sorry it's so late in the day, guys, but I was busy writing my own fanfiction.

For the first time, I have a crossover fic. And yes, it's a crossover with Twilight. But never fear, Snape's not paired with anyone... That would be disgusting. Actually, it's a Humor fic called Sparkles. It's one chapter, and it's not that long, but it's worth a read. Technically, you might not even consider it a crossover. There are only Twilight characters in an implied sense... And if I said anything else, I'd be giving away too much. Just go read it.

You know how when Voldemort "killed" Cedric Diggory, he became a vampire? Well, when he hit that one random tombstone, it turned into this link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6811533/1/Sparkles

Snape Quote of the Week #17

  And there he was, at a table right behind Harry. Harry stared. Snape-the-teenager had a stringy, pallid look about him, like a plant kept in the dark. His hair was lank and greasy and was flopping onto the table, his hooked nose barely half an inch from the parchment as he scribbled. Harry moved around behind Snape and read the heading of the examination paper:

Defense Against the Dark Arts--

Ordinary Wizarding Level

  So Snape had to be fifteen or sixteen , around Harry's own age. His hand was flying across the parchment; he had written at least a foot more than his closest neighbors, and yet his writing was minuscule and cramped.
~Order of the Phoenix, Ch. 28 "Snape's Worst Memory"

This may not seem significant at all, but this is the passage where I first felt close to Severus. This is exactly how I am during tests, timed essays, and pretty much every assignment. I'm always hunched over my desk with my face nearly pressing onto the paper. I've been like that ever since I started school... And people think I'm weird for doing it. It's partly a habit, partly because I don't anyone to copy off me, and partly because my eyesight isn't the best.

And my hair is never tucked back, so it always hangs over anything I'm writing. And no matter how much I wash it, it's still greasy... I used to hate it, but I feel proud to be like Severus.

And when I write, I write a lot. My handwriting's tiny, and I still manage to fill up over twice the amount of space as anyone else. I'm not lying at all... this is siriusly creepy. But also awesome. I'm pretty much a girl version of Snape. :D

Snape Insults YOU #17

Snape Insults Johnny Depp

Mister Depp, why is it that you cannot contain yourself in a single, sane personality? No, we would not like our hair cut by your deformed scissor-hands. And no, none of us celebrate our "un-birthdays." Nothing at Hogwarts is edible but the food, so would you please stop licking the walls?! And, Mister Depp, in a certain Muggle film, you kill me by repeatedly stabbing my jugular vein and letting me fall down a chute. What gives you the right to kill me? I deserved your wife, and you know it. I deserve all the ladies. 100 points from Gryffindor. Oh, and you as a pirate... it doesn't work for you. You have absolutely no idea how to be a real pirate... Let the expert, ergo me, show you how it's done:

Snape Video of the Week #17

Ministry of Magic- Lightning-Struck Tower

I think I've done all the MoM songs about Snape now... until they release their next album, which is sure to have more. I couldn't find any good music videos for this song... so you just get Jason dancing around.

Even though this song is from Harry's point of view and about what he's thinking after Snape kills Dumbledore, I can't help but love it. The Lightning-Struck Tower is one of the most pivotal chapter of the entire series... except it's Snape that I'm sad for, not Dumbledore. I don't know why, but I've never even gotten that sad at Dumbledore's death.

The thing about this song(as well as all MoM songs) is that even if you don't like Harry Potter, you have to appreciate the way the song comes together. The music is just awesome, and fits perfectly with the chapter. And I love how they incorporate actual quotes from the chapter...

Now that I think about it, this song can coincide with Hero Pt. 2, since they're both about the same thing, just from different points of view. I can't believe I never realized that before...

Weekly Snape-ly Event #17

All the action posters for Deathly Hallows Part 2 have come out (along with many others) in high-res, so I figured that was an important bit of news. So here's all the action in order from most important(in my opinion) to least important:

I just want know... Why does Griphook have his own poster? Why not Luna, or Mrs. Weasley... or Lucius Malfoy?

Snape Picture of the Week #17

Oh, Severus... I found this picture the other day and literally lol'd. Snape's facial expressions work perfectly for it... And this is the sort of thing he would actually do. And you know what, I do this too. Looks like neither of us are very pleasant people, huh?
