sometimes what you need to get out of a deep depression is to start shipping a fictional couple that encourages you to read fanfiction until 3 am.
I'm a Bear. Coolđ»đ»đ»đ
Reblog if you find this accurate ;)Â
Voldemort: Severus, you are my most trusted servant and thatâs why I am telling you this vital and extremely sensitive information.
Severus: My lord, my life and loyalty belong to you. I would never even dream of betraying you.
*after he gets back to Hogwarts*
Severus: Hey Albus omg you wouldnât believe what this bitch is planning asdjfjskshdkak
I miss them so much.

OMG!!! Hahahaha I really can't stop laughingđđ #Professorsnape #slytherin #Hogwartsmysteries
Why do people think that Snape was friendzoned by Lily? By definition being in friendzone means that one friend rejects the other friendsâs feelings and as far as we know nowhere in books we see Snape actually telling Lily that he loved her romantically, therefore he couldnât have been âfriendzonedâ. I do understand that people who hate Snape want to make him look pathetic and the butt of the joke by saying he was friendzoned by Lily, but itâs just not true. Itâs not canon.
As a reader, as a writer, and as a fan I canât think of a single website that has given me more happiness than Archive of Our Own. Thank you so much to everyone who works so hard to make it such a wonderful place.Â
Voldemort: Theyâll never see it coming.
Severus: [under his breath] And neither will you.
Voldemort: Iâm sorry. What was that?
Severus: [after long pause] Huh? What?
Voldemort: You just said something.
Severus: No, I didnât.
Voldemort: Yes, you did.
Severus: No, I didnât.
Voldemort: Yes you did. I said, âTheyâll never see it coming,â and you said, âAnd neither will you.â
Severus: [dumbly] I did?
Voldemort: We all heard you.
Severus: Oh⊠what I meant to say was: âAnd neither will you guys.â Meaning the Order. I was just emphasizing my point.
Voldemort: Oh, okay.
Severus: [under his breath] That was close.
Voldemort: What was that?
Severus: [cringes]
I don't really hate him... But this really makes sense
I still donât understand how so many people can say âJames Potter wasnât a bully.â âŠ. Um excuse me? He sexually assaulted another student in front of a group of students and thatâs okay?
I ship them post-war, so of course he survives Nagini.
I ship Snape learning to let go of guilt and pain long enough to make a friend. He didnât really expect to, not with her, and he never compares her to Lily, because sheâs not.
I ship Hermione longing for someone academically challenging for her, who doesnât just want to snog and talk Quidditch, but she never compares him to Ron, or Viktor, because heâs not.
I ship them becoming friends, of it becoming something more. It doesnât matter that when they meet off the field of battle sheâs 18-19 and heâs 38, because theyâre going to live past a hundred anyway, and they both know all too well what boys her age are like and she doesnât want to wait around for them to mature to her level.
I ship the way he panics, worrying about his moral state because she used to be his student, damn it, and she frets over falling for another teacher because wasnât Lockhart bad enough. But that doesnât matter, in the end, because theyâre not those people any more and thereâs no Miss Granger or Professor Snape, just Severus and Hermione. They can weather the media uproar because theyâve both done it before and at this point donât really care what anyone else thinks.
I ship Crookshankâs hair clinging to the end of his robes and the flush of embarrassment when he notices, but he canât quite bring himself to Vanish it.Â
I ship the way the fumes of his potions lab cling to her hair, and when sheâs stressed, waist-deep in books on House Elves she pulls some to her face so that smell comforts her.
I ship them sitting peacefully at home reading, or Hermione ranting about her day at the Ministry and the changes she wants to make on their world while he counts stirs of his cauldron, or Severus complaining about his students while she laughs and reminds him that she and Harry were twenty times worse.Â
I ship the nights one or both of them wakes up to nightmares of the war, of surviving. That they can share that in the dark hours of the day with nothing but soft tears and sharp jagged holes in the heart that never quite heal makes them all the stronger.
I ship them arguing, but she doesnât cower to him because sheâs Hermione fucking Granger, and he can take his opinion and shove it up his arse. And unlike her ex, he apologises promptly when heâs in the wrong (even if itâs not the actual words, she understands what the flowers or book means) because he is Severus Snape and he knows how much it would hurt to lose her.
I ship them growing, changing, coming together as a couple. He learns to have a friend again, a confidante, someone who genuinely cares about him as a person - the person he could have been if not for losing Lily and joining the Death Eaters. She learns not to try so hard because she is good enough on her own, and her confidence and strength makes him proud-he encourages her in her endeavors, often losing sleep as he helps her look up whatever it is she needs for a case or just an idle passing fancy.
So, yeah. I ship Snape and Hermione together. Two consenting adults who have a shared past and a better and brighter future.
