Obsessed with @sideprince's theory (canât reblog, unfortunately, so Iâm just going to link) about what Snape was searching for at Grimmauld Place when he last visits it in Deathly Hallows: a method of communicating with Harry. I think itâs entirely plausible that Snape, who knew about the marauders map and the invisibility cloak, would have deduced that an object that like the mirror could exist.
It also hangs together with Snapeâs focus on communicating with Harry in Deathly Hallows; in each interaction Harry has with Snape in Deathly Hallows, Snape is desperately trying to connect with him. The Patronus, his attempts to find him in the castle, his dying breathsâeven indirectly, in his use of Phineas Nigellus Black.
I also like this theory because it fits well with one of my own: that Snapeâs search of Grimmauld Place was in itself a message.
There's no denying that Snapeâs last visit to Grimmauld Place was emotional. We see it in his tears over the letter, but even before that, he was likely rattled. His visit forced him to relive his killing of Dumbledore and underscored how irrevocably he was cut off from anyone who had known his true self. Snape is likely grieving and reconciling with his changed mission and the path ahead, as Harry must do during The Forest Again. (One of these days Iâll sit down for long enough to write how the photo of Lily:Snape :: resurrection stone:Harry⌠unless someone else has already written it in which case drop the link please!)
Given his emotional state, itâs easy to explain the mess he makes while searching. But why did he leave it that way?
Snape does lash out emotionally. But in most cases, given time and/or a reminder of his mission, he is able to master those emotions and pull himself back to the task at hand. So unless he was rushed, or deemed the house of Black to be below the basic effort of setting it to rights (both very real possibilities, for sure) it is somewhat uncharacteristic of him to leave the house in its ransacked state. Which to me begs the question: could it have been an intentional choice?
Perhaps, in the absence of finding something more concrete with which to reach Harry, he uses the search itself to send him a message:
Beware! The security of the house has weakened; stay on your toes and donât get complacent. A lesson in defense to anyone who might be inclined to return to the house (how very Snape!) After all, Snape doesn't know that Mr. Weasley has said as much to Harry before he even arrives:
"Well, Mad-Eye set up a couple of curses against Snape in case he turns up there again. We hope they'll be strong enough both to keep him out and bind his tongue if he tries to talk about the place, but we can't be sure. It would have been insane to keep using the place as headquarters not what its protection has become so shaky."
But with evidence that there has been an intruder, the trio could reach the same conclusion. And they're right to be careful; within days Death Eaters are surveilling the house.
But thereâs also another layer one could read into this: You're being protected. The intruder, while callous and disrespectful of the house and its owner, has not broken the Fidelius Charm.
Hermione and Ron get very close to reaching this exact line of reasoning:
âDeath Eaters, for sure,â said Ron, as he, Harry, and Hermione watched from the drawing room windows. âReckon they know weâre in here?â
âI donât think so,â said Hermione, though she looked frightened, âor theyâd have sent Snape in after us, wouldnât they?â
âDâyou reckon heâs been in here and had his tongue tied by Moodyâs curse?â asked Ron.
âYes,â said Hermione, âotherwise heâd have been able to tell that lot how to get in, wouldnât he? But theyâre probably watching to see whether we turn up. They know that Harry owns the house, after all.â
They don't quite get there because Hermione assumes the only reason the Fidelius has not broken is the tongue-tying curse. Sure, after killing Dumbledore and cursing George, they're not about to give Snape the benefit of the doubt.
But it also seems to be the case that tongue-tying only affects verbal communication; there's no indication that it would stop one from sharing the protected information in other ways. And after all, the location of Grimmauld Place can be shared non-verballyâDumbledore revealed the location of Grimmauld Place to Harry in writing, and we find out in just a few chapters that the location can be shared via side-along Apparition. So an intelligent wizard bent on sharing the location could very well get around the tongue-tying curse; indeed, the Order aren't discounting this possibility.
Yet Grimmauld Place remains secure until the trio accidentally let a Death Eater in themselves. Perhaps Snape was planting a seed; if the trio were just a little less convinced that the curses on Grimmauld Place were binding Snape, they might consider whether there was another reason Snape wasn't sharing the location with the Death Eaters. A seed, perhaps, that could germinate into doubts about Snape's allegiance and set the stage for future communication�
I admit thereâs nothing really in the text to support this little pet theory of mine, Iâm mainly just musing here. But itâs a fun idea to roll around, so thought Iâd share :)

Severus Snape x Reader
A/n: That would be lovely! I added some plot too yall should read thisâ¨ď¸
Edit: Tell me guys if you want continuation!
Masterlist
The air inside Number 12 Grimmauld Place was always heavy with dust, old magic and lingering shadows, but tonight it felt even thicker, buzzing with quiet tension and hushed voices. It was another meeting of the Order of the Phoenix. Members were slowly filtering into the drawing room, pulling chairs around the large table covered in maps, papers and plans.
Severus Snape arrived last, his usual dark robes swishing around his ankles, face set in that permanent, unreadable scowl that everyone knew so well. Walking right beside him was you â Y/N. You wore simple but elegant robes, your expression calm and composed, a soft smile touching your lips as you greeted the people you knew.
Nobody in the Order knew you were married to Severus. It was a secret you had guarded fiercely together. Severusâ life was dangerous, his position as a double-agent was precarious, and keeping you hidden, keeping your relationship completely unknown, was the best way to keep you safe. To everyone here, you were simply Y/N â a talented witch, a skilled healer and a valuable new member of the Order who had been recruited only recently. You were just a colleague, nothing more.
Or so they thought.
âGood evening, everyone,â you said gently, taking a seat near the far end of the table, while Severus pulled the chair right next to yours, sitting close enough that his knee brushed yours under the table â a small, invisible touch of comfort and possession that only you felt.
âEvening, Y/N,â Remus Lupin smiled kindly at you, looking tired but warm. âGlad you could make it tonight. It is good to have your insight on the injuries and curses our members are facing.â
âThank you, Remus. I am happy to help however I can,â you replied.
Molly Weasley bustled around the room, handing out tea and biscuits. âHere you go, dear,â she said, placing a cup in front of you. âYou look a little pale, are you eating enough? You must look after yourself, you know!â
âI am perfectly fine, Molly, thank you,â you laughed softly.
Arthur Weasley nodded at you from across the table. âAlways good to see you, Y/N. Hope we arenât keeping you too late.â
âNot at all, Arthur.â
Nymphadora Tonks leaned over from her seat, her hair a bright bubblegum pink today, grinning widely. âYouâre looking lovely as always, Y/N! Honestly, how do you manage to look so fresh when weâre all feeling like weâve been dragged through a thorn bush backwards?â
âPractice, Tonks, lots of practice,â you winked playfully at her.
Kingsley Shacklebolt gave you a small, respectful nod. âYour reports on the movement of Death Eater activity have been very helpful. Excellent work.â
Before you could reply, a voice rang out from the armchair near the fireplace â lazy, deep and dripping with charm.
âWell, well⌠if it isnât the most beautiful witch in all of London walking into this gloomy old house. I thought the sun had come inside for a moment.â
You froze slightly, turning your head to see Sirius Black leaning back comfortably, one leg crossed over the other, dark eyes fixed entirely on you, a crooked, roguish smirk on his face.
Everyone knew Sirius was free-spirited, charismatic and loved banter, but this was different. This was obvious, shameless flirting.
You gave him a polite, tight smile, shifting slightly in your seat. âGood evening, Sirius.â
ââGood eveningâ?â Sirius chuckled, standing up and strolling casually toward your side of the table, ignoring the sharp glare Severus was sending his way. âThat is far too formal for someone like you and me, donât you think? You should call me Sirius. Or perhaps âhandsomeâ, or âcharmingâ, whichever you prefer.â
Remus sighed, rolling his eyes. âSirius, behave yourself. Leave her alone.â
âI am just being friendly, Moony!â Sirius grinned, pulling a chair and dragging it right next to yours, sitting far closer than necessary. âCanât a man appreciate beauty when he sees it? Y/N, you look absolutely radiant tonight. Honestly, being stuck in this house full of gloomy people must be torture for someone like you. You should let me take you out for a drink sometime, somewhere much nicer than this.â
âSirius, please,â you laughed awkwardly, feeling heat creep up your neck. âI am quite alright, thank you.â
Severus remained silent beside you, but you felt the air around him drop several degrees colder. His jaw was clenched tight, his fingers gripping the edge of the table hard enough to turn knuckles white. He hated this. He hated Sirius looking at you like you were something to be won, hated him speaking to you with that familiar, flirty tone, hated that he couldnât slam his fist on the table and shout She is mine right here and now. But he couldnât. Not yet. Not without exposing everything you had worked so hard to protect.
The meeting continued for nearly two hours. Plans were discussed, reports were given, dangers were weighed. But throughout every single minute of it, Sirius did not stop. He leaned toward you whenever he spoke, whispered silly jokes that were clearly meant only for you, brushed his arm against yours âaccidentallyâ, complimented your intelligence, your skill, your hair, your eyes.
You were becoming more and more uncomfortable, shrinking away from him, your smiles becoming thinner and more forced. You kept glancing at Severus, silently pleading with your eyes, Do something, please, I donât like this.
Severus saw every single glance, every flinch, every time you pulled yourself away. His patience, already paper-thin where Sirius Black was concerned, was snapping completely.
When the meeting finally ended, it was decided everyone would stay for dinner. The younger members â Harry, Ron, Hermione, Fred, George and Ginny â had been waiting in the kitchen, and now they all trooped into the dining room to join the adults.
âDinner is ready!â Molly called out, carrying huge bowls of food. âEveryone take your seats!â
You moved to sit next to Severus, naturally, but Sirius swiftly pulled out the chair right next to yours and sat down before you could, grinning triumphantly. Harry, Ron and Hermione sat opposite you, while the twins, Ginny and Remus sat nearby.
âPerfect,â Sirius said happily, leaning his elbow on the table so he was facing you completely. âNow I have you all to myself for the whole meal. You know Y/N, I have been thinking⌠you seem far too quiet and reserved to be hanging around people like him,â â he jerked his head dismissively toward Severus, who sat on your other side, looking like he was about to explode â âalways looking so miserable and dark. You should spend more time with people who know how to have fun! Like me! James would have loved you, you know. You remind me so much of the kind of girls we used to chase back in school â pretty, smart, way too good for the blokes they usually end up with.â
Ron snickered behind his hand. âHeâs got a point there, honestly. Snape looks like he drinks vinegar for breakfast.â
âRon!â Hermione scolded, though she was trying very hard not to laugh herself. âDonât be rude!â
âWell itâs true!â Fred chimed in, grinning widely. âFace it, Y/N, youâre way too cool to be hanging around old Snivellus!â
George nodded eagerly. âExactly! Come join the fun side! Sirius is right, youâd have a much better time with us!â
Harry watched everything with curious green eyes, glancing between you, Sirius and Snape. He noticed how uncomfortable you looked, how you kept twisting your hands in your lap, how you leaned away from Sirius every time he leaned closer.
âSirius, really, that is enough,â Remus said firmly, shaking his head. âYou are making her uncomfortable.â
âI am just complimenting her!â Sirius laughed loudly, reaching out and lightly touching your hand resting on the table. âCan you blame me? She is absolutelyââ
That was it. That small touch on your hand was the final straw.
Before Sirius could finish his sentence, Severus slammed his hand hard onto the wooden table, making plates, glasses and cutlery jump and rattle loudly. The sound echoed through the room instantly, silencing everyone. Every single pair of eyes turned toward him.
Severus stood up slowly, towering over the table, his face terrifyingly dark, black eyes blazing with absolute fury, voice low, sharp and deadly.
âTake your hands off her, Black. Now.â
Sirius blinked, looking amused rather than intimidated. âWhoa, calm down, Snivellus! I was just having a nice conversation with Y/N. Mind your own business, wonât you?â
âEverything regarding Y/N is my business,â Severus hissed, leaning forward slightly, his voice raising just enough so everyone could hear clearly. âBecause you have been shamelessly, annoyingly and foolishly flirting⌠with my wife.â
Complete and utter silence fell over the room. You could hear a pin drop.
Molly froze with a spoonful of potatoes halfway to her mouth. Arthur dropped his fork. Remusâ eyes went wide as saucers. Tonks gasped loudly, her hair turning bright red instantly. Kingsley raised both eyebrows in absolute shock.
The children reacted even more dramatically.
âWHAT?!â Ron shrieked so loud his voice cracked, his face turning the colour of a tomato. âSnape has a WIFE?!â
âNO BLOODY WAY!â Fred yelled, looking like someone had just told him pigs could fly.
âMERLINâS BEARD!â George finished, eyes bulging out of his head.
Harry stared between you and Severus, mouth hanging completely open. âYou⌠you two are married?â
Hermione grabbed Ronâs arm tightly, eyes shining with excitement and shock. âOh my goodness! That explains everything! All those little looks and touches I noticed but thought I was imagining!â
Ginny grinned broadly. âWell I never would have guessed in a million years!â
For a second, everyone was too stunned to speak. Then slowly, the shock turned into bright, happy smiles.
âOh Severus!â Molly beamed, wiping happy tears from her eyes. âThat is wonderful news! Truly wonderful! Oh my goodness, you kept that hidden well didnât you?!â
âI must say,â Arthur smiled warmly, âI never would have put the two of you together, but⌠it actually makes perfect sense. You balance each other beautifully.â
Remus smiled widely, shaking his head in disbelief. âWell, that certainly explains why you looked like you wanted to murder me once when I held the door open for her. I always wondered why you glared so fiercely.â
Tonks practically bounced in her seat. âThis is the best thing I have heard all year! Oh Y/N! You lucky thing! Though I still cannot believe you managed to tame him of all people!â
Kingsley gave a deep, rumbling laugh. âA well-kept secret indeed. Congratulations to you both.â
But Sirius Black â Sirius was completely stunned. He sat there staring at Severus for several long seconds, mouth slightly open, looking utterly gobsmacked. Then suddenly, he threw his head back and laughed â loud, roaring, mocking laughter that bounced off the walls.
âHA! HA HA HA!â
Everyone turned to look at him, confused. Sirius wiped tears of laughter from his eyes, pointing his finger right at Severus.
âOh this is absolutely brilliant! This is the best joke I have heard in years! You? Married to her? The beautiful, kind, clever Y/N is married to you? To old sour-faced, greasy-haired, miserable Snivellus?! Who in their right mind would ever choose you?! Who even wants you?! Merlinâs beard, Y/N, you poor thing! You must have lost your mind or been under a very strong Confundus Charm! How could you possibly stand him? He is nasty, bitter, cruel, boring, obsessed with the Dark Arts, he smells like dungeon and potions ingredients, and honestly, Severus, let us be real â nobody likes you! You are the most unpleasant man I have ever met in my life! You really think someone like her would actually want to be your wife, let aloneââ
âTHAT IS ENOUGH!â
Your voice rang out loud, clear and sharp, cutting straight through Siriusâ cruel words and laughter. You stood up from your chair, turning fully toward Sirius, your face calm but absolutely fierce, eyes blazing with protective fire. Everyone went quiet again instantly.
âHow dare you speak about him like that,â you said, your voice shaking slightly with emotion but completely firm and unyielding. âYou think you know him? You think you know anything about the man I love? You see the surface, you see what he chooses to show the world â because he has to, because it keeps everyone safe, because he sacrifices every single piece of his own happiness, his own reputation, his own comfort to protect people like you, people like Harry, people like all of us sitting right here in this room! You call him miserable? You call him cruel? He is the kindest, most loyal, most loving man I have ever known! He works harder, suffers more and gives more of himself than anyone here could even imagine!â
You paused, taking a deep breath, glancing sideways at Severus who was staring at you completely stunned, completely frozen, looking at you like you were the only thing in the whole world.
You turned your gaze back to Sirius, and then you smiled â a soft, glowing, radiant smile that made everyoneâs breath catch. You placed one hand gently, proudly over your stomach.
âAnd you want to know why I chose him? Why I love him so much? Why I am proud to be his wife?â Your voice softened, turning warm and tender, loud enough for every single person in the room to hear clearly. âBecause⌠I am carrying his child. Our baby. And there is absolutely no one else in this entire world I would rather raise a family with than Severus Snape.â
The silence that followed was different this time. It wasnât shock. It was awe.
Severus stood frozen beside you. He heard your words, he processed them slowly â carrying his child⌠our baby⌠His brain simply stopped working for a moment. He stared down at your hand resting gently over your stomach, then up to your beautiful face, and slowly, slowly, his usual mask of coldness, of scowls and bitterness, completely shattered and fell away.
His dark eyes went wide, shining bright with pure, unfiltered happiness, shock, overwhelming love and joy. His pale face flushed with colour, his lips parted slightly, and then â the most impossible, beautiful thing happened.
Severus Snape smiled. A real, genuine, soft, bright smile that reached his eyes, crinkling the corners, full of so much happiness it looked like it hurt him a little. He looked absolutely radiant, completely transformed, looking at you as if you had hung the stars and moon just for him.
Everyone saw it. Everyone saw that expression.
âOH MY GOODNESS!â Molly squealed, bursting into happy tears again, clapping her hands together. âA BABY! SEVERUS AND Y/N ARE HAVING A BABY! THIS IS MAGNIFICENT!â
âThis is the best news ever!â Arthur beamed, looking genuinely delighted.
Remus was grinning from ear to ear, looking between you and Severus, completely overcome with happiness. âSeverus⌠honestly⌠congratulations. Truly.â
Tonks screamed happily, her hair turning gold and sparkling bright. âI KNEW IT! I KNEW YOU WERE PERFECT FOR EACH OTHER! LOOK AT HIM! LOOK HOW HAPPY HE IS! I HAVE NEVER SEEN HIM LOOK LIKE THIS IN MY LIFE!â
Kingsley nodded slowly, smiling broadly. âThis is wonderful news indeed. The Order needs more hope, and new life is the best hope there is.â
Even the children were absolutely thrilled.
âWHOA!â Harry grinned widely, his eyes sparkling. âI never thought Iâd see Professor Snape look that happy! Ever!â
âHE LOOKS LIKE HE COULD BURST!â Ron laughed loudly, forgetting completely he had ever disliked the man. âBloody hell, he actually looks⌠nice!â
âTHIS IS LEGENDARY!â Fred cheered.
âABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!â George yelled. âWE ARE GOING TO BE THE BEST UNCLES EVER!â
âI call godmother!â Ginny shouted instantly, raising her hand.
Hermione smiled softly, her heart warm. âThis is beautiful. Truly beautiful.â
Even Sirius Black â finally shut up and silenced completely â looked from you to Severus, seeing the pure, overwhelming love shining clearly between you two, seeing how happy Severus was, seeing the fierce way you defended him, and slowly, the arrogance and mockery faded completely from his face. He looked stunned, humbled, and then finally, a genuine, crooked smile tugged at his mouth.
âAlright, alrightâŚâ Sirius held both hands up in surrender, shaking his head, looking genuinely sorry and impressed. âOkay⌠I stand corrected. Merlin⌠I really, truly did not see that coming. You⌠you really are something else, Y/N. To love him like that, to defend him like that⌠and carrying his child? I⌠I apologise. Truly. I was an idiot. I didnât know. And⌠honestly? You two look good together. He looks like a completely different man.â
Severus didnât even look at Sirius. He didnât care about Sirius anymore. He didnât care about anything else in the room. He reached out, his hands shaking slightly, and wrapped his arms tight around your waist, pulling you gently but firmly right against him, resting one hand tenderly over yours resting on your stomach, pressing a soft, lingering kiss to your forehead.
âYou are pregnant?â he whispered against your skin, voice thick and rough with emotion, sounding breathless and incredibly happy. âWe are going to have a child?â
âYes, Sev,â you smiled up at him, reaching up to cup his face gently. âWe are going to be a family.â
He closed his eyes for a second, breathing deeply, holding you like you were the most precious thing in existence, and when he opened them again, they were filled with nothing but love.
âI love you so much,â he murmured. âMore than words can say.â
âI love you too,â you replied softly.
Around you, the whole room was filled with laughter, cheers, congratulations and happiness. The secret was out. Everyone knew. And looking around at all the smiling faces, hearing everyoneâs genuine joy, Severus realised for the first time⌠maybe keeping you hidden wasnât necessary anymore. Maybe, finally, everyone could know exactly how lucky he was.
