So wait...
A “simple” spy is someone who works for the enemy. This is Snape as a Death Eater trying to spy on Dumbledore.
A double agent is someone who seems to work for the enemy but is actually betraying them with them thinking the spy is loyal. That’s Snape during the 1st Wizarding War, betraying Voldemort and working for Dumbledore.
A deep-cover agent is a person who still works as a spy, for a prolonged period of time (months or years), infiltrating the enemy and taking posts of responsibility and importance in the war, gathering precious information while cutting off all communication with his side of the war until they are “woken up”. That’s what Voldemort thought Snape was doing in becoming a member of the Order, a Potions Professor and Dumbledore’s (fake, but in reality not fake) spy, only to reveal himself as a true Death Eater after all.
A triple agent is someone who acts as if they betray the enemy but who’s really working for them, making the target believe a (false) tale of betrayal. That’s what Voldemort believes about his spy after his resurrection, when Snape tells him he’s “spun a tale of deepest remorse” to Dumbledore.
A quadruple (?)/fourth-time agent is someone who says that they faked a betrayal to the enemy but who’s really betraying them: they’re “faking a tale of false betrayal to the enemy”. That’s Snape who did betray Voldemort and made him think he convinced Dumbledore of a betrayal that was fake... although it was not.
Dammit Snape that’s a lot 😰
I love how when explaining why he “broke up” Bingley and Jane to Elizabeth , Darcy is all like “I studied her and she wasn’t showing affection and she didn’t seem to like him that much based on very scientific observations of her behavior and I am obviously an expert on how to act around the one you are in love with ” when he is the most repressed person ever, he’s the guy who never shows his feelings or internal struggles (or when he does share his feelings for Elizabeth he ends up insulting her and her family lol great job Willie) and he’s out there judging people for doing the same… Dude, I love you but take a look in the mirror before you speak
When Severus was very little, at around 4 or 5, this one time his pjs were in the wash and Eileen put him to sleep wearing one of Tobias´ old flannel shirts. Severus started to prefer that shirt to his regular pjs because the shirt was big, warm and cozy, and it smelled like his dad. At that time Tobias wasn´t drinking that much and he wasn´t violent or abusive just yet, so sleeping in his shirt was soothing and comforting to little Sev, particularly when Tobias had to work late shifts and wasn´t around to kiss him goodnight.
As an adult Severus still has the faint, unconscious and vague memory of an oversized shirt as a token of his dad as he was before it all went to shit and Tobias became his worst nightmare. It makes him feel safe, but he honestly doesn´t know why, on a conscious level.

You can never not repost this…
seriously y’all reblogging and liking these tik toks was the biggest mistake you guys ever made because i’ll keep making more trashy memes
in my humble opinion, the fact that snape was a death eater should not even be such a frequent talking point in anti snape rhetoric, given that he spent the last part of his life trying to bring them down.
im not saying it cancels it out, but im saying that if you have beef with him for joining the DE, surely you’ll have to acknowledge and appreciate that he tried to make up for it by doing his best to destroy them altogether?
if a person made a mistake when they were young, but ultimately gave their life to make that mistake right, you can’t sit here and attack the person for making said mistake, while completely disregarding their very serious and equally important act of atonement that followed.
yes, joining the death eaters was perhaps the worst thing snape did, but giving his actual life to dismantle them is the best, and those two should always come hand in hand in a debate or argument, because mentioning only one is a distortion of his arc, even his essence if you will.
tldr; if you’re gonna mention snape’s past in the death eaters, you better also bring up the fact that he sacrificed his life to stop them.
I’m in the 3rd group ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
not sure if I did it right

i am honestly so obsessed with this??? kusakabe just looks SO EXCITED to be with sajou and i can imagine sajou thinking to himself, “omg why is he laughing so hard? why would this popular guy want hang out with me???” But sajou’s also thinking about how he looks like a ball of sunshine and how he hopes to stay by his side and enjoy his warmth for as long as possible while still maintaining that “cool” look on his face, you know? and kusakabe’s probably just ridiculously geeked that he’s met this person and is like “im just gonna enjoy every second with you cus you make me so happy. i have a good feeling about this.”
i wrote all of this just to say they are cute af and im so happy theyre husbands now🥺
