imagine your pompous self-important ass of a colleague finally fumbles it with the goddess of magic, he goes into isolation for two years, is stripped of most his magic, and youre revelling in the schadenfreude, only for him to show up with a baddie hanging off his arm, skin glowing, a stable job, a hero of baldur's gate, a new, humble(r), #blessed 🙏 attitude, and a wedding invite. id chew off my arm.

I love Regulus with the whole “I know I will be dead long before you read this but I want you to know it was I who discovered your secret” thing. Like yes, I too couldn’t bear the thought of not getting credit for doing iconic shit even after my death.

i am about to bestow upon you the secret butter technique. i am sorry, but it is french. i am sorry again, this only works with cow butter. i am certain plant based butters wouldn’t work, and alternative animal butters may or may not work
has this ever been you: you have a nicely steamed vegetable, or maybe you want to make the best butter noodles, but you know that if you put butter on those it’ll just melt and you end with kind of greasy noodles or vegetables? don’t you wish it was instead a luscious buttery glaze?
introducing: beurre monté
you will take a small sauce pan, and begin heating it with 1-2 tablespoons of water (use very little water) and bring it to a hard simmer or boil
turn the heat down slightly, and add Butter. how much? however much you dare. (start with 3-4 tablespoons and go from there)
you are going to either whisk Aggressively or you can pick up the saucepan, still holding it over the heat, and swirl aggressively so the butter is skating around the sides of the pan
done correctly, you will have liquid butter that is still emulsified. you have made Butter Sauce. season it with a little salt, and toss whatever you want in it.
if you’re butter splits, i’m sorry. you didn’t agitate it enough to maintain the emulsion, and now you have melted butter.
you can use this knowledge to make other sauces by swapping out the water for another liquid. white wine becomes beurre blanc. red wine is beurre rogue.
you want to CUM? sweat minced shallot in a tiny bit of butter, add white wine and cook it out until it’s reduced by about half. then whisk butter in hard. a few flecks of minced thyme or fennel frond stirred thru, and you eat that with a nice seared fish? or scallop? or even shrimp? wow. you will Nut
your boxed mac and cheese game can also be elevated by cooking your pasta and making a beurre monté first, tossing your pasta in that and adding the cheese packet. wow. hey; you’ll cum
go forth now with this butter secret

What if Eileen was a muggleborn and not Slytherin?
We assumed Eileen Prince was a pureblood witch who was cast out of her family, but we have only heard words from Hermione and Harry to prove that.
Hermione believed that the Prince was from a wizarding family, but she couldn't find any magical Prince except Eileen. There was no Prince in the Black family tree; even Black was related to nearly every wizarding family, including the Weasleys. Harry called Eileen pureblood, but he just wanted to compare Snape to Voldemort. We have announcements about her wedding, but newspapers in the 1950s were like social media; they even have announcements about who comes back from vacation; you don't need to be famous to be in them, and if Eileen was rich and pureblood, why didn't they mention it? It might be more spicy.
We also assumed she was Slytherin because Snape wanted to be one, but Eileen was distant toward her son, and Snape didn't say he wanted to be Slytherin like his mother; he might just want to be Slytherin like Merlin, just like Hermione, who wanted to be in Gryffindor like Dumbledore.
Why did Snape become a deatheater then?
Snape didn't have a good relationship with his parents.
He was raised in the muggle world and was ignorant about how bad Voldy was.
He was in Slytherin, and his housemates lied to him and said that Voldy was a great wizard.
His housemates were decent to him; they didn't hex him, humiliate him, or trick him into being a werewolf victim like the Light Wizard did.
4 He heard rumors about the bad things Deatheater did, but he didn't believe them because he was also the victim of a makeup rumor.
5 Voldy even wanted Lily, who was muggleborn, to join him. He could make an exception for Muggleborn, who was very talented. Why didn't he do the same for Snape?
It depends how you take defying, doesn't it. I mean, if you're counting, which I do, anytime you arrested one of his henchmen, anytime you escaped him, anytime you thwarted him, that's what he's looking for. And both couples qualified because they were both fighting. Also, James and Lily turned him down, that was established in "Philosopher's Stone". He wanted them, and they wouldn't come over, so that's one strike against them before they were even out of their teens.

My favourite bit of BG3 lore is that Withers is legitimately responsible for the Dead Three, but he's probably too embarrassed to tell you, so every time you ask him to elaborate he just gives you a very stern, "Noooo."
I also love that the reason he's responsible for their uprising is because he got bored. He literally got bored of his position as Lord of the Dead and wanted to retire, so when these three morally questionable humans came looking for godhood he was like, "Hmmm. Yes, okay. Here. Take my portfolios. Fight over them. I don't care. I quit."
So after bowling with skulls in a friendly competition to decide who would get what portfolio, they took up his powers and wreaked havoc on the world. Only at that moment did Jergal, AKA Withers, AKA our precious Bone Daddy think, "I'm just now, internally, asking myself, in quite a worried way, whether I might've made an error."
So he joins your merry band and watches your escapades, calmly twiddling his fingers while you clean up his mess. He's happy to lend his aid, even to the point that he'll bring Durge back to life if they reject Bhaal, even though he technically shouldn't. But he's Withers. The rules don't apply to him. If Ao doesn't like it, he can descend from the Heavens and say it to his rotting face.
And the reason he saves Durge isn't necessarily because he likes them or because he's a morally good entity (though one certainly could make that argument), but because he wants to add insult to injury. He steals Bhaal's child with a big smile on his face, dubs them his Chosen, and praises them for rejecting all the power they were promised. But of course, he still doesn't tell them who he is—or rather who he was.
Then, when all is said and done, he throws Tav and their companions a cute little party. No one knows it's probably half a thank you party and half a "Withers is bored again" party. And if anyone misbehaves, he'll get irritated and whisk them away. Because how dare they? He put a lot of work into that.
And at the end of it all, he walks up to a mural of the Dead Three and basically goes, "Lmao. Thou didst fuck around, and thou didst find out." Just savagely roasting them.
And then poof!
He waves them into non-existence.

The Marauders weren’t rivals, they were bullies. And, anyway, Snape already has a rival: Professor Minerva McGonagall. Sometimes friends, sometimes backstabbing Quidditch fanatics, all the time snarky bastards.
And yes, their rivalry started the moment Severus arrived at school, raised his hand during his first Transfiguration class, and uttered the words, “Actually, according to the book…” and Minerva took one look at this weird, little Slytherin and thought, “I can’t believe this fucking brat–”
