This year reminds us that, in the world of stories, Severus Snape would have turned 65. At this age, he’d barely be considered old—still walking the twilight of middle age, with time to reflect, heal, and perhaps find the peace that always eluded him.
It’s a sobering thought: only 27 years ago, his life was cut short at the age of 38. So young, with countless years ahead to grow beyond the shadows that defined him. He never saw the turning of seasons that age might have brought—wisdom without war, love without pain, and a life lived for himself, not for sacrifice.
In his absence, he lingers—ageless and eternal. A life unfinished, yet a legacy that transcends time. In the hearts of those who remember, Severus Snape remains forever young—a timeless figure in a story that endlessly inspires.
If he’d been obsessed with Lily he would have followed her around everywhere at school. You know. Like an actual stalker.
He would have asked her out all the time. He wouldn’t have backed off after she told him to leave her alone. He would have done everything he could think of to win back her affection after insulting her. He wouldn’t have respected her enough to allow their friendship to end because people who are obsessed don’t actually respect the feelings of the object of their obsession. They don’t have boundaries.
If he were obsessed with Lily he would have sat in front of their house in Godric’s Hollow all the time after her death. He would have tried to go through her belongings. He would have built a fucking shrine to her, collected Daily Prophet clippings with Lily’s photo and kept them in a scrapbook or some shit. Snape ain’t got no time for that. He’s got a teaching gig at Hogwarts because he moved on and lived his life.
If Snape were obsessed with Lily he wouldn’t have helped Harry at all because if it didn’t bring Lily back then what would the point in that be? Obsession is selfish. There was nothing in it for Snape and it didn’t bring Lily back. So how is sacrificing his life, safety, and comfort for Harry/Dumbledore/Lily selfish?
Why are y'all perverting the word “love” for the sake of hating a fictional character?
Can you please reblog if your blog is a safe place for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, asexual, aromantic, pansexual, non binary, demisexual or any other kind of queer or questioning people? Because mine is.
Hell yeah!
Ok. I have probably listened to EPIC way more than is healthy but here it is.
Ok so since Chapter 25 is up thought I would share some art from a few weeks ago. One of my faves to be honest
Chapter 1 for Danica is up! Very excited because I think this may be my darkest story yet. Set pre-Incredibles.

Seeing all these deactivated TMNT art blogs makes me sad. :( there used to be so many different ppl creating art and writing for Bayverse…..
The Marauders map becomes a really creepy concept when you remember it was made by a pack of bullies who loved to torture, torment and humiliate their victims. If you were their target, there would be no escaping them. They could find you whenever they wanted. You would have nowhere to hide.
Just a quick Blerbo of my two loves
Hello, I am an aspiring writer with two current projects. In order to keep the creativity flowing, I do dabble in fanfiction. I hope to get some inspiration on here and display some of my art. *AO3- https://archiveofourown.org/users/SkyHenson/
