First day as a teacher. He’s so anxious. His teaching robes helped him a lot to build a mask of confidence and authority. 

Hi @geekling007

I was inspired by your prompt so.. Yeah.

STOP EVERYTHING! Snape is walking 😌

“Say, Percy, who's that teacher talking to Professor Quirrell?"

I know the fandom has mixed opinions about why Snape worked against the death eaters and the two most common ones are-

He was horny for Lily (courtesy of the snaters, ofcourse)

He realised his mistake and muggleborn bias after Lily had died as a result of his actions, or so he thought (the rest of the fandom)

I can propose one more

We understand that's Snape's morals are rather messy, and it's unreasonable that he'd change them as soon as Lily got targeted. It's irrational because he already knew she was a muggleborn and that's who the DEs targeted most often. It's crazy Severus would've changed sides for revenge. (Because who was he kidding? He held himself partly responsible for Lily's death, and to take revenge from the people he knows were working for the cause he had participated in is insanity, and Snape was a bright man.)

We know Dumbledore's morals aren't exactly white either, but to cite one of his more famous sayings: "Do not pity the dead, pity the living, and most of all, those who live without love"

After Lily had died and Severus had felt the pain of her loss, pain like she couldn't ever feel again as he was the one she left behind, maybe Snape understood the meaning of that saying. Lily was gone but he was here, and he was hurting. What if Snape realised the Death Eaters were the ones causing that?

Not just to him, but to thousands.

What if he realised he could watch people being killed, but not the ones who lived on?

The ones who lived without love.

Like he was going to do the rest of his life.

Snapetober Day 22- Collapsed (late but i wanted to do it anyways ) 

snape isn’t wearing actual clothes because i didn’t feel like animating them too... plus i love drawing his bum ngl

So the kids are watching Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows P1 and the scene with the Death Eater meeting and Charity Burbage comes on. And just before Voldemort kills her, she turns to Snape and says, “Please, Severus, we're friends.”

I-????

Does this imply that not only was Severus Snape friends with the Hogwarts Muggle Studies professor (who I assume was quite unpopular with purebloods due to prejudice) but he and her were comfortable enough with each other to be on first name basis?

If she wasn't on good terms with him it would have made more sense for her to have said something like, "Snape you traitor" after realizing that he was still part of the Death Eaters. I don't know about you but if I was on the verge of imminent death and saw someone who I thought had just betrayed our side and joined a Dark Lord I wouldn't be reminding them of the friendship we had.

Well, it’s October. Which means November is just around the corner. Which means Trans Snape Week 2020 is coming up soon!

I have a few questions for the Snapedom/Snapeloveposts community:

Which week in November is best for Trans Snape Week 2020?

How should we organize prompts? We could have (optional) daily prompts, general prompts you could do anytime, or none at all.

How are cis members of the community feeling about participating? What resources would you like to feel more confident?

I can’t wait to read your responses. In the meantime, check out @sxvxrxssnape ‘s Snapetober challenge!
