Some Snape Headcanons: Substance Use

Snape has been chain-smoking since he was a teen.

He used to steal his mum’s cigarettes and he and Lily would go smoke by the river the summers they were 14 and 15. Those were some of his last good days with her, when he felt like the two of them were still really best friends. It wasn’t like that at school anymore.

While Snape is a professor he makes sure that very few people at Hogwarts know about his smoking habit. It wouldn’t do to have the students find out about that little vice. Dumbledore knows of course, but that man knows everything, and Minerva thinks she knows because she had caught him as a student and won’t be convinced that he quit. She doesn’t have any proof though. 

Madame Hooch knows because she stumbled on him one day in the out-of-the-way alcove which used to be her old smoke break spot. Even though she doesn’t smoke anymore, she still goes there to think sometimes. They bump into each other there every few month and hang out in companionable silence. 

Snape prides himself on the fact that in nearly two decades of illicit smoking, Filch has yet to catch him.

Smoke breaks in between teaching classes is one of the few indulgences he allows himself and probably the only way he stays sane.

Snape doesn’t drink – the smell brings back bad memories and he knows that there is alcoholism in his genes. Best not risk it. 

He is, however, adept at making it seem like he drinks and has pretended to be drunk at Lucius’ parties before. It’s a useful skill for a spy to have, and he does nothing to discourage the reputation of being somebody who occasionally drinks.

For Christmas, his colleagues usually gift him expensive alcohol since that is the “nice” gift you get somebody when you don’t know what else to get them. He surreptitiously re-gifts some of it to the Malfoys, or even back to his colleagues if it’s been long enough that they won’t remember where they last saw the bottle. Even so, there’s still a huge stash of unopened bottles hidden in his office. He hopes that whoever takes the office after him will be pleasantly surprised. 

Snape drinks an obscene amount of coffee. On top of being a bit of an insomniac he is not a morning person. Minerva sees him gulping his third cup of coffee at breakfast where he hasn’t eaten anything but half a piece of toast and wonders how he isn’t dead yet.

During the beginning of his teaching career Snape abused Dreamless Sleep. There may have been an accidental overdose or two, and a few less accidental ones. 

A problem with Dreamless Sleep is that taking it for a prolonged time wreaks havoc on the brain and causes hallucinations, because suppressing REM sleep isn’t actually great for one’s health. Snape could tell he was losing it and forced himself to go through withdrawal before his colleagues caught on and staged an intervention. 

He relapsed once or twice in the years since, but it never got as serious as it did in that first year after Lily died. 

He settled on experimenting to create a less risky and more potent version of the potion and got used to the nightmares again. After all, he’d had them nearly his whole life, and they hadn’t killed him yet.

Snape’s encounter with Nagini left him with long-term damage and chronic pain. They gave him some very good drugs at St. Mungo’s, but didn’t tell him what to do for the pain once he left. He’s a potions master, he supposes. He should be able to figure it out.

Here, @josiecarioca​, as promised! 

maybe he needs someone who show his strength again and again. just to know he do care

Hey, everyone! Due to the sudden influx of viewers on AO3, the site has had to modify some things, including the experience of guest users and how hits are counted on the site. This is not the fault of AO3 (they’re doing their best to keep things up and running for all of us), but if you’re a guest user following stories on AO3, PLEASE make sure to leave kudos for your authors to see. We understand it can be difficult to get an account on AO3 (probably more now with COVID-19 leaving people in their homes), but sudden drops in statistics can be inexplicable and disheartening.

Keep your heads up, people. We’re gonna get through this.

Some different thoughts on Eileen

- she hadn’t wanted children, but Tobias was insistent.

- Tobias’s family weren’t that keen on her, but with her own family gone she had no one else to help her through the difficult pregnancy.

- when Severus was born, she didn’t want to hold him. This wasn’t a new reaction for the midwife so she said she’d be back in the morning and “perhaps mum will be feeling more up to it.”

- when she arrived in the morning, she found an angry Tobias, a crying baby and a still disinterested mother.

- she sorted everything out and finally convinced Eileen to hold her baby, but couldn’t get her to breast feed, she was adamant she wanted to give him formula.

- as he grew older, his mother remained distant. She told him about Hogwarts and being magical, but didn’t like being bothered by his constant questions.

- she was never encouraging and showed little interest in his life. Severus learned to stop telling her about his achievements or about what happened at school.

- he spent his time wishing someone would tell him he was doing a good job and got his wish granted when Lucius Malfoy introduced him to Lord Voldemort.
