Snape Picture of the Week #27

I feel like it's been too long since I posted a sexy picture of Snape... Well, there you go. Just look at him... in all his shirtless glory. One of the best things about this is that I'm pretty sure it's completely drawn and not photoshopped. Even if it is photoshopped, it's still freaking awesome. And the sexiest thing in the world.

Snape Theory of the Week #6

Was Snape Draco's Godfather?

This is a question that has been asked a lot, primarily because Sirius is Harry's Godfather. Snape was probably Lucius's best friend, just like Sirius was James's best friend, so it would make a lot of sense. I mean, I can totally imagine Lucius and Narcissa asking Snape to be the Godfather of their son, and that may be why Draco seems to be his favorite student. However, that may just be because he's the son of an old friend as well as a Slytherin (plus, he hates Harry a lot). And if you read my fanfiction, you'll notice that I'm completely contradicting myself, but whatever.

But then again, if Snape was Draco's Godfather, that probably would have been mentioned in HBP when Narcissa is asking him to protect Draco. Most likely, actually. Plus, it's likely that people only think this is true because that's the way it is in a lot of fanfiction.

So, as far as my own opinion goes, I think that they asked him to be the Godfather, but he refused, not wanting any sort of obligation to protect Draco in the future.

Fanfiction Friday #27

So, I have another Snape/Hermione fic - wait for it - but it's not a romance. It's... well, it's not classified by the author, but I would consider it a Friendship/Hurt/Comfort type fic.

Basically, it's just after the Final Battle, and it's slightly AU, because Hermione's dying. Hermione and Snape weave in and out of death, and talk to each other as they wait for death to finally take them. It's somewhat sad, but extremely well-written. I'm so serious about that it's not even funny. I love this person's writing style so much. It's comparable to J.K. Rowling's. I can't believe it only has 55 reviews. It deserves way more.

It's a very long one-shot called Where the Breezes Know My Name, and it's Rated K+ so there's nothing inappropriate whatsoever in it. I absolutely loved it, and no matter what you ship, you should all love it as well.

Take... it... Take the link to this fanfiction: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4166863/1/Where_The_Breezes_Know_My_Name

Snape Quote of the Week #26

  Snape strode forward, past Dumbledore, pulling up the left sleeve of his robes as he went. He stuck out his forearm and showed it to Fudge, who recoiled.
  "There," said Snape harshly. "There. The Dark Mark. It is not as clear as it was an hour ago, when it burned black, but you can still see it. Every Death Eater had the sign burned into him by the Dark Lord. It was a means of distinguishing one another, and his means of summoning us to him. When he touched the Mark of any Death Eater, we were to Disapparate, and Apparate, instantly, at his side. The Mark has been growing clearer all year. Karkaroff's too. Why do you think Karkaroff fled tonight? We both felt the Mark burn. We both knew he had returned. Karkaroff fears the Dark Lord's vengeance. He betrayed too many of his fellow Death Eaters to be sure of a welcome back into the fold."
~Goblet of Fire, Ch. 36 "The Parting of the Ways"

This is probably the most Snape's ever said at one time (not including lectures in Potions class). Usually, he doesn't go into full-out explanations like the other characters do, since he doesn't like people to know anything even remotely personal about him. I can't imagine how angry and frustrated he must be to just explain all of this to Fudge, and especially in front of Harry.

At this point, I'm pretty sure a lot of you were all, "OMG I KNEW IT SNAPE'S A DEATH EATER! (Well, he was a Death Eater, but still..." And it was at this point that the huge debate really started--Is Snape on the good or the bad side?

And I can't help but wonder how much it hurts when the Dark Mark burns. I'd also like to know how Voldemort gives his Death Eaters the Dark Mark... That's probably really painful too. And do you have to touch it intending to call Voldemort in order to actually call him, or can you just touch it on accident? Because if it calls him whenever you touch it at all, then what happens if you accidentally touch it while you're in the shower...?

Snape Video of the Week #26

Severus Snape/Everybody: SLASH & CRACK

This is too funny not to post. XD In case you don't get it, here's the video description: 

Everybody want to get inside Severus Snape. They try to catch Severus's attention in every possible way, they fight with each other for Severus, but only Harry Potter knows how to get Severus's ass... When Severus starts to walk strangely the next day and Harry tells everybody what he did to Snape, people get angry and frustrated that "this bloody Potter" always wins... ^_^

First of all, this song in a video about Snape is just bloody hilarious. Second, this video is awesomely made. I love the clever way this person edited clips from the movies... Sorry, but I can't help but appreciate really good editing. And third, this video is so accurate. Because everyone wants to get inside Severus Snape. Or rather, have Severus Snape inside them.

 



Weekly Snape-ly Event #26

Is it me, or did last week go by really fast? It's probably just me, because school starts in a week for me, and the Universe has a cruel way of making time speed up when you really don't want it to.

Anyway, BBC America has 'Fan Favorites' vote going on for mostly British actors. And that includes Alan Rickman. They're doing it sort of like the Harry Potter World Cup Tournament, with rounds and quarterfinals and such. They're currently in the quarterfinals, and Alan Rickman's up against Richard Armitage. The results are currently hidden, but the last time it was available, Alan was losing by a couple thousand. Guys, we can NOT let Alan lose!

And while you're voting for Alan, you should participate in the other voting as well. Be sure to choose David Tennant over Michael Fassbender. David was Barty Crouch Jr. AND The freaking Doctor!

Snape Picture of the Week #26

Another Snape and Lily picture! I really love this one, because Snape and Lily are just so sweet together. And the way they're looking at each other... their love is so obvious. I bet they had a nice spot near the lake like that where they hung out (and possibly snogged) all the time... I just love the scenery in this pic. Aside from all else, it's really well done. I also love the way Snape is sitting. He's so adorable.

Plus, the picture frame thing makes it even sweeter. Snape likely kept a picture of Lily under his pillow or on his nightstand or something... :'(
