#snape deleted scene

[sctumsempra]

it has been. 15 years and i’m STILL sad they deleted this scene. it’s so pretty and he’s so pretty and they axed it for What reason

[lemongrass77777]

I will never be over the fact that Lily Potter was the one who defeated Voldemort in 1981 and she was never given proper credit for it in canon. We barely even know anything about her and she was the one who defeated the snake faced bitch the first time around. It drives me insane. Lily deserved so much better than what the books ever gave her.

[vavandeveresfan]

Have a merry, bitter Severus Christmas.

I really wish they'd left this scene in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

I adore Snape stalking around in the cold during the Christmas Ball, doing "Coitus interruptus!"

Like, "Goddammit, I didn't get laid while at school, so you fucking well aren't."

[stabby-apologist]

If people don't think I wouldn't watch a 5 hour long Harry Potter movie, they're wrong. Put in every deleted scene, cut scene, and what they would have put into the movies. Add in all the stuff that should have been in the movies from the books

TAKE MY MONEY!

— 03; i watched you change

pairings; luke castellan x hephaestus!reader

warnings; kissing, angst at the end, dark!luke, choking, mentions of swords, swearing, violent tendencies.

summary; luke castellan was always a saint, it was a wonder how he would date a hephaestus girl over the dozens of aphrodite girls wrapped around his finger, he saw you, and he loved you for it. you'd be an idiot if you said you didn't love him to, but something was going on, he was. changing.

word count; 2.07k words.

a/n; a part is kinda inspired by that one scene of nate jacobs and maddie perez, yes the one where he choked her, also I am on my last stray since I finished, then tumble deleted the whole thing which I loved, alsooo uh sorry for the late upload i had so many exams :((.

masterlist!! | navigation!!

i. I love everything you do, when you call me fucking dumb for the stupid shit I do.

— high-school sweethearts, melanie martinez.

You smiled as you sat down at the breakfast table, your hair in a bun and your were still in your pj's. It was your day off so you decided to take breakfast, then snuggle up to your new boyfriend's, Luke, cabin.

"Hey mender." Luke said as he sat down beside you, kissing your cheek as you smiled, you took a bite of your mac and cheese, Luke's hand wrapped around you.

"So, tell me, how's the best swordsman at camp huh?" You joked as he smiled. You both took your scraps, placing it into the fire before walking off back to the hermes cabin.

Even though most of the Campers lived in the hermes cabin, it somehow was always empty during the morning, most people going back during either lunch or at the end of the day.

So here you were, on the bed with Luke's mouth latched onto your neck.

Ever since that night, Luke was addicted to you, the way you tasted, the sweet noises that erupted your mouth whenever he touched that one spot on your skin.

"Luke. You'll make marks!" You giggled as he laughed, slowly raises his head to look at you.

"Too late baby." He winked before rasing your shirt, pressing soft kisses to your stomach as you laughed. You playfully shoved him as he smiled, looking up and laying down beside you, moving his hand so you'd lay on his chest. "Fine. You win mender."

"No way, I beat the Luke Castellan?" You teased as he rolled his eyes, placing a soft kiss to your forhead before taking out a scrap book you had made and a Polaroid.

"Cmon let's get your first win into our amazing book of memories." He snaped a picture as you giggled, he smiled at the picture as he glued it on.

Her first win!!

Luke castellan gets beat up by a woman half his size. NOT CLICKBATE. CANON EVENT!!

Baby wtf.

Luke closes the book, taking the pen and placing it on top of the book as he turned back to face you. He watched as you traced soft patterns onto his hand. "I love everything you do. You're mine, and I love that."

He pushed your hair to the side to see your giggling face. You couldn't help but smile, kissing his lips. "I'm all yours."

He grabbed your waist, pushing you down onto the mattress as you groaned. "Luke-. I have to go to work."

"And suddenly my names work." He jokes as he hugged your waist, placing soft kisses onto your neck. You giggled before wrapping your arms around the boy. "You mean the world to me. You know that right?"

"I know luke. I know." You whispered as you played with his hair. You sat in silence, playing with his hair as he closed his eyes, falling asleep on your chest. "Ten minutes."

Luke smiled at your words as he hugged you tighter. "Thirty and you got yourself a deal."

ii. just trust me, you'll be fine.

— end of beginning, djo

Chris smiled as he passed by you. It was weird being the center of attention now, everyone needed to figure out the hot gossip about Luke Castellan's new girlfriend, and to their shock, she wasn't an aphrodite girl.

Everyone knew that Hephaestus' daughters were rather, boyish, only because there were very little, being surrounded by men in a job that most people would assume a man to do was well, difficult.

Luke saw you. He saw who you were. Not what your sibling saw, not what camp saw. He saw what he wanted to see, and that was all of you.

You sat down by the docks, the same docks of that night. You two would always meet up there to catch up and spend time together, but here you were, an hour later still sitting alone on the dock.

You started to give up, standing up to walk away but you heard Luke's faint calls. You turned around to find a man you almost didn't recognise.

The once shining Luke had eyebags under his eyes that were bigger than yours. He was wearing sweatpants and a tank top, yet you could see tracs of sweat around it. He wasn't out of breath so he hadn't ran, maybe he did, what was going on?

"Luke? Heavens have you been sleeping?" You asked him as he held your hands away from his face. He gave he a small smile.

"I'm fine." He rasped. You shook your head, holding onto his cheek as you looked at him. "Don't."

"Luke." you scoffed as he shoved your arms off of him. You had a pained expression on your face, hugging yourself with your jacket as you looked at him. He sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose before walking towards you, placing his hands onto your shoulders.

"I'm sorry I'm just, really tired." Luke muttered before hugging you. "And I'm sorry I was late, I uh, took a nap after training and lost track of time I suppose."

You hugged back, he quickly carried you which caused you to squeal as he set you down onto the dock. He smiled as he sat down in front of you, the picnic basket empty as he chuckled. "Someone was hungry."

"And someone was late." You giggled as he dramatically rolled his eyes, he smiled before taking your hand in his, looking out to the lake, clearly thinking about something. "Are you okay Luke?"

You waited for a response but he just stared out. You were starting to get worried, what the hell was going on? "Luke?"

"hm?" He said as he turned back to you. You could feel his arms tense around you, his breath hitched as you said his name. You needed to know what was going on.

"You know you can talk to me. Right baby?" You asked the boy who kissed your cheek before turning to the soft waves.

You didn't understand why he was keeping secrets from you, were you that bad? Were you not as supporting as you thought you were?

"I know mender. I know." He whispered in your ear as you melted into his grasp. A smile on your face.

He's fine, he says he's fine so he has to be. Right?

iii. Was it my August? Shit, I don't remember

— Gone gone/thank you, Tyler the creator.

"Where is he?" You asked Chris as he sat quietly, playing with his food. You glared at him, leaning onto the table as you glared at him, your eyes glowing orange, fire swimming in them.

Luke had been ignoring you for two weeks now, you had no clue if it was because you did something wrong, and if you did, you wanted to solve it.

That was until Max, your brother, had told you that he was giving Stacy Evans, aphrodite's prettiest daughter, extra sword fighting lessons.

"Hermes cabin bathroom." Chris muttered as you hummed in approval, walking off to find Luke.

Ever since your last interaction on the beach, you haven't seen him. Some would say you were worried, and if the right person asked, you were worried.

Little did you know, that Luke wasn't running from you. He was protecting you. From himself.

He did know how, how the he'll could everything about you agitate him. He hated it, he hated how every time he heard your name, he wanted to punch someone.

He hated how whenever he saw you laughing with your brothers, he wanted to smash your head against the wall, he wanted to hurt you.

He didn't know why. Why you out of everyone. You were a Saint, you were perfect to him, perfect for him. Suddenly, without warning now he's ignoring you.

You loved Luke, and Luke loved you, but now. Even at the mention of you, he wanted to stab you with his sword and watch you bleed.

You knocked on the door, hearing shuffling as you waited for him. Your eyes widened as you heard muttering coming from the other end of the door.

You barged in, finding Luke huddled up over the sink, clearly irritated by you. You glanced at the sword on the bathroom counter.

"What the fuck is wrong with you mender! You can't just barge into the men's bathroom." He spat out as you scoffed, you locked the door, walking towards him.

"What the fuck is wrong with me? What's wrong with you?!" You spat out as he let out an agitated sigh, clutching the sinks frame as his eye twitched. You shoved him to look at you, his breathe staggering as he stared at you.

"You know you're a real shit boyfriend you know! Missing out breakfast because im there, wow I mean. Master of communi-fucking-cation right!" You laughed as you watched his reaction. His eye twitched more, his mouth agap as he panted, he was controlling himself. He was on his last straw.

He wasn't even listening to what you were saying now. He was just trying to keep his thoughts at bay, he couldn't hurt you. If je hurts you, it was over.

"You really are your father's son huh?!" You spat out, that was all it took for him to lose his sense of control. He grabbed you by the throat, shoving you into the wall as he smashed your head against the wall, before wrapping his hand around your neck again.

He lifted you up, you kicked your feet as you tried to pry him off, stopping as he shoves you against the wall again, clearly agitated by the fact that you tried to pry him off.

"What the fuck is wrong with you. Don't you ever say that again you little bitch." He Luke spat. An evil laugh escaped his lips as he leaned in to face you. "You really are a pathetic whore huh. No wonder your mom left you."

Soft cries left your lips as he tightened his grip around your throat. You started to feel nauseous as you found it harder to breathe. Clawing at his hands.

"L...Luke..." You struggled under him, even though he was two times your size, even though you had no chance against him. You watched as the darkness in his eyes was replaced by realisation.

He let go, allowing you to fall on your knees as you sobbed and panted. The air suddenly returning to your lungs. Luke hovered over you, panting as he realised who was on her knees before him.

"Y/n." He breathed out, you shook your head at the mention of your name. He sighed grabbing a rag and before wetting it and holding it out for you.

You took it, holding it against the bruises that already formed.

He did it, he hurt you and he wanted to kill himself right at that moment.

"Mender. I... I." He didn't know what to say. You kept your gaze onto the floor as you cried. Unsure of what to do, what to say, as you rubbed the bruises. "Listen, I know you want to run of to Chiron and-."

"I won't. Don't worry." Your voice cracked as you looked up at him, standing up and walking to the door. But Luke's voice stopped you.

"Why?" Luke asked you as you shrugged. You hovered over the doorknob, sighing as you opened the door, leaving Luke alone in the bathroom.

He glanced at his hands, sobbing as he fell to his knees, he hurt you. He hurt you. He did the one thing he was afraid to do. The voices in his head won, he had lost you, the only thing that mattered to him.

He was weak, he allowed him to hurt you, he allowed this to happen. You were the best thing to ever happen to him, and somehow he messed it up.

You were special, not like the aphrodite girls who only cared about looks and who hooked up with who, most people saw him as Luke Castellan, most popular guy at camp.

In your eyes, he was Luke Castellan, another mediocre privileged guy, but he was yours, and you loved him for the good and bad in him.

Don't cry my child, it'll be over soon.

Smile. Ft.E 42.Miles

Sorry if there's spelling errors but I'm to lazy to go nmback and check so deal with it.

Enjoy bookie bears

..............................................

You were a shy person but your self around people you really know. Like for instance Jovie, and Josie. Aka juicy and swag. Oh an Miles. I mean he was a like a new Friend. It was a new year and he was your room mate. You two had a couple of classes together, but never seemed to talk.But that all kinda changed when you guys ended up in the same dorm. And you guys become good friends.And started hanging out more, and honestly the more he looked at you the more he was so intrigued by you.

He wanted to figure you out. So now he has a personal vendetta against you. He's your biggest opp. You to were in your dorm on a Sunday playing a video game. And so matter how many times he cheated- I mean sabotaged you, by kicking you, pushing you down, you would always win either way."There's no fucking way, how are you wining" miles complained pressing the x button repeatedly. Just by hitting one button you won that shit easily.

He was basically on top of you trying to block your vision but you still won. So while you were winning he took this opportunity to tickle you. As soon as his finger made contact with skin, you jumped up throwing him off you. Making him fall on is ass. "MILES" you screamed trying to get away from him. But he got back on top of you. Pinning you down.

"Oh, your ticklish ma? I never knew you were ticklish" I sly smirk appeared on Mile's face as took one hand away from the controller and tickled you stomach. You scream out loud and drop the controller.

You burst into laughter trying to cover your stomach. Miles quickly won the game, but that didn't stop him from torturing you. You covered your mouth hiding your smile."Don't cover your mouth ma, you have a pretty smile" miles cooed trying to pry your hands away from your face.

You had the classic eyebag smile, one of the things miles always loved bout you. "miLES" you screamed out as he uncovered your face. But you couldn't stop laughing."Aww look at you. Your so cute when you smile ma" Miles teased.

Now, if you look at this from another prospective. Someone might think something... else is going on.The position you were in...was giveing one night stand. Miles was on top of you restraining your hands, breathless from fighting you. You were on the ground flustered as ever.

Both yall clothes were disheveled as long as your hair. BreathlessThere was a knock at your door, but you didn't here do to your loud laughing, and trying to run from miles. Believe it or not it was actually your bestfriend. Coming yo tell you the tea about her new room mate... AKA miles bestfriend. Ganke.

"Girl you will not believe were me and ganke are- opp-" your bestfriend saw the scene of you laying on the floor and Miles on top of you. "O-oh my" she said covering her mouth. "In the dorms is crazy but uh... call me when your done... you know" the curly haired girl slowly closed the door, and snaping a quick picture.You finally pushed miles off of you.

"WAIT, SWAG, ITS NOT WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE" you yelled after her. "SWAG. J-JOVIE, DELETE THE DAMN PICTURE" you yelled again leaving a low key stunned, and flustered miles.

'Yup, she's the one'.

[xelasrecords]

My ultimate comfort fics aka the ones that I always go back to whenever I want to sink deeper into sadness when I'm already swimming in it, in no particular order (category is heavy angst with a pinch of, or no optimism):

i could only be myself with you around @gureishi: Jumin comes home unlike himself and you talk him through it. Smutty bathroom scene at the end.

2:15am by crackleviolet (AO3): V lost his sight at 2:15am, but that's not what stayed with him the most.

He set fire to the world... by senlinyu (AO3): Dramione. “He set fire to the world around him but never let a flame touch her.”

endure by @bloodpacks-archive: Jihyun tries to bandage his injuries alone.

"Stay here tonight." by @mysticmikalla: one last time with Jumin before the divorce is final.

Beautiful by @cafedanslanuit: Jihyun has a couple of burn scars on his torso after the fire that took his mother’s life. You make sure you know he loves every part of him.

2:47am by nighttimefear (AO3): fear of not being loved using Jumin as a means of comfort.

Post-Surgery MC by @edgelord-saeran: MC keeps her surgery from Jumin and Jihyun.

strawberry sundays by @c4ssiopeias: poly Gojo and Geto feat reader in a depressive episode.(I'm not in this fandom but the writing is just too good)

The Last Time by @cafedanslanuit: No matter how much you pressed Draken and his friends for answers, you couldn't understand why he had decided to end things out of the blue. But now he's at your place, his head between your thighs and you wonder if you can make him change his mind. (Not my fandom either I just like to read about emotional breakup sex)

in order to get to the heart by @juminies: Jumin. Marriage of convenience, on occasion, is not so convenient.

Manacled Severus/Hermione by senlinyu (AO3): a spin-off/deleted scene from Manacled with Hermione and Snape both going through some things. (I don't ship them. And yet.)

[ensnapemysenses]

So I'm not sure if you've seen the deleted scene from gof but Snape catches two students going at it in carriage. How often do you think he's catches students? And what do you think his inner monologue is when he does?

I’ve seen and I love it! They really should have kept that scene in!

Honestly I think he catches students doing things like that pretty often. Probably several times a week. I headcannon he doesn’t get much sleep and that he roams the castle at night so I’m sure he’s stumbled upon students making out or doing more than that loads of times.

I imagine his inner monologue would go something like this:

“Fuck. What’s that noise? It better not be what I — of course it’s those two. This is the third time this week!”

“You’d think by now these numbskulls would find more secluded places for these activities. They really are just out here fucking in the halls like animals… They should be expelled. This is disgusting. I should tell Filch to clean these walls extra well tomorrow. I don’t even want to know what that substance is.”

“Maybe if I just *coughs and stomps loudly down the hall* that seems to have done the trick. I hear them running now.”

“That’s what ten students so far this week? I’m growing rather tired of giving out so many detentions.”

“I swear to Merlin if I turn this corner and those two are still here going at it I will throw them off the astronomy tower. I told them to get back to their rooms 15 minutes ago.”

“Fuck it, next kid I catch is going straight to Dumbledore. I’m tired of this shit.”

LOST FICS

I am looking for a fic that has harry potter going back in his eleven year old body after the second war (I guess?) Or he could also not be back in his eleven year body but some other year. I just know that he was master of death and he stood up to snape when he was being an arse to him. Harry time traveled back in time, I vividly remember the scene. Harry was in a potion class and snape as usual was being an arse and harry thought maybe he wouldn't be harsh on him or even change but no snape was still an arse to him and harry had enough so he called snape a Bastard who was pathetic and wouldn't move on from his gurge and he walked out and refused to attended the class unless snape apologized for his behavior and promise not to do it again. Hermione and Ron tried to pursue harry with other professors as well, but he was adamant about it and refused to attend potion class, at last Dumbledore called harry and snape in his office and tried to solve it but snape was still an arse.

i've been trying to find this fic for years now and have had no luck. it's a fanfic about how harry has 2 personalities (assumed it was from the horcrux but not explicitly stated) and he was so much smarter because of it. In it, harry is a ravenclaw, Hermione is a slytherin, and so is Fred but idk about George. Also snape gets eaten by a basilisk and the basilisk is named hedwing. Also, harry creates a potion to turn some boys into girls so Daphne doesn't have to marry Theo nort. Last I checked it was uncompleted and I'm pretty sure it changed its name.

Hello! I've been trying to find this fanfiction on Ao3 for a while with no luck. It is a Dark Lord/Harry fanfiction, and possibly completed. I remember it having a pretty high word count. Vaguely, I can remember that Bellatrix and Harry dueled in front of the Inner Circle Death Eaters and Voldemort, and though Harry struggled for the most part, I'm pretty sure he won. I vividly remember Draco yelling at him for talking to Daphne. Harry thinks that Draco has a crush on Daphne, but Draco kisses Harry instead. Harry pushes him away.

Hey! I'm not sure if you already have the fic here, but am anyways asking. I'm looking for fem!Harry/Tom fic. It's on ao3, multi-chaptered and completed. It's name is something like The Rise of _____ What I remember from it after her sixth year, Harry (I think her name is different) leaves Britain, goes to America with Sirius, studies in Ilvermorny, she's in contact with Death who helps her against Dumbledore (it's a bad!Dumbledore one) anyway before leaving I think she was in contact with Tom, who now kinda randomly shows up to 'woo' her, she's also good friends with Draco, Narcissa and Bellatrix (calles her Auntie Trixie) It's not a very old fic, completed sometime b/w 2021-23

the fic im searching for Harry gives Tom permission to do whatever he wants. It was multichaptered and finished. At one point there’s a Harry/Cedric bit but Tom admits that he would rather not see anybody touch Harry that way again and I think he obliviates Cedric? Also Tom and Harry get frisky on the side of the quidditch shed in a fit of jealously due to Ginny. At the end the order tries something and makes Harry’s cat sick and he gets almost kidnapped by leaving.

Hi there! This blog is AMAZING. I was delighted to be recced. I need some help looking for a fic on fanfiction.net that I highly suspect has been deleted, but am still hoping it may be my sub-par searching skills. It is a multichapter ongoing story, and had maybe two chapters up when I read it. The main characters are Harry Potter and Tom Riddle in a hospital setting (it may be St. Mungos). Harry is a star (like a literal celestial star) in the body of a child, which has a lot of problems containing him, and is hence in a state of near-death. He coughs blood. Tom Riddle's mother is also long-term hospitalized and he comes to visit her. This is how they end up meeting in the hispital. (And all I remember of the story). Pretty sure it was on ff.net between 2009 and 2012. I never could find it again.

WIP Tag

Thanks for the tag @mppmaraudergirl @emeralddoeadeer @isahorcrux @alittlebitofeverything23 @wearingaberetinparis! Sorry it's taken me an entire decade to actually do anything.

List the titles your top five priorities for WIP updates (link your fics for new readers!)

An upcoming scene, event, or detail in each fic that you're looking forward to writing

Bonus: make a poll for your followers to vote on which top 5 WIP they are most excited to see an update on!

Then tag 10 writer friends!

I fear the optimism that I may even have five WIPs is too much, but we shall see...

Titles

The Price We Pay - Chapter 30. A Marauders canon fic with highs and lows and I can't believe it's been 30 chapters.

Murder on the Dance Floor - Chapter 6. The last chapter of this fic that will come so late, literally nobody will care anymore. Jily Strictly Come Dancing AU.

untitled friends with benefits fic. Jily canon diversion shenanigans, Order era but not depressing. I think.

untitled Lily-goes-to-fix-up-a-stately-home-and-falls-in-love-with-the-heir-you'll-never-guess-who-he-is fic. Jily magic AU. I think.

Upcoming Scenes and Details

Chapter 30 will feature Sirius' 18th birthday party, and we all know that's where the fun is. Also a future chapter (might be 32) will see the return of an old face, someone I've been itching to get back to for a while now...

I deleted a whole chunk of text from this doc which were snippets from 'articles' about Snape being exposed as an incel after a website gets hacked. It was fun, but ultimately distracted from the main point of the chapter, which is how to describe two people who want to snog each other desperately, trying to get through a showdance to I'd Do Anything For Love by Meat Loaf.

Some of it is written, but not much. It started off as an angsty fwb situation (to no one's surprise) but has morphed into a fun-but-pining fwb deal. It contains James reminding Lily of their encounter with the description, "You know - you, me, the screaming orgasms."

I have sort of planned it? but not written a single word, so it might not happen. But I used to love those trashy, very English chick lit books when I was younger, and one I enjoyed in particular started percolating in my head, suggesting itself as a Jily au. We'll see if anything comes of it!

A poll? How do I do a poll?!

Pretty sure everyone and their second cousin has done this already, but I'll tag some people anyway, feel free to ignore! @thequibblah @clare-with-no-i @oyprongs @kay-elle-cee @sunshinemarauder @nodirectionhome-ao3

In Noctem - A song for Regulus?

Carry my soul into the night May the stars light my way I glory in the sight As darkness takes the day Ferte in noctem animam meam Illustrent stellae viam meam Aspectu illo glorior Dum capit nox diem Cantate vitae canticum Sine dolore actae Dicite eis quos amabam (sing a song) Me nunquam obliturum (a song of life) Lived without regret Tell the ones, the ones I loved I never will forget Never will forget

This song, composed by Nicholas Hooper, appears in Half Blood Prince and plays in a deleted scene indicating the approaching Death Eaters (storm coming, Snape watching, Draco making his move). The time of this is roughly in line with Dumbledore and Harry visiting the cave.

Within the film, the links with Snape and Draco can provide ties with Regulus - a turn coat when someone they loved was threatened (Snape/Regulus) and Rowling has connected Draco and Regulus as similar characters (young death Eaters who got in a little too deep). By these characters being connected with the song, Regulus is pulled along with them.

A greater Regulus connection can be found in the imagery, which uses stars and night/dark. The night/dark makes a good connection with the Death Eaters (i.e., Snape and Draco, the two we see) but the star imagery ties very well with the Black family and their constellation/star names. Regulus fits very well within this, but so does Draco, son of Narcissa Malfoy, but nee Black, and likewise with a celestial name. Latin also gives me noble family vibes but again, this works equally well between Draco and Regulus.

But I shall not stop there. The first verse, to me, suggests death. Draco survives the series. Snape will die as a consequence of the upcoming actions (leading Voldemort to believe Snape is the holder of the Elder Wand) although that's a book (or two movies) away. Dumbledore is going to die, although so far has not had as strong associations. Regulus Black has the thematic Death Eater link, the night/dark and star imagery associations and can tie in with the visit to the cave, where Regulus canonically died. Not only this, he died achieving a victory (believing the Horcrux to be safely taken away for destruction), i.e., 'glorying in the sight'.

The final verse is interesting. Firstly, a life without regret? Snape and Draco can both present more regretful characters. The level of regret we have from Regulus is ambiguous. We know he changed his mind about Voldemort. We know less about the Death Eater ideology, which he may have continued to support. One could even hypothesis that he did not regret joining Voldemort, since it lead to his discovery of the Horcrux (and the letter is defiant rather than regretful, with an aim that Voldemort knows who brought him down). The life lived without regret may fit Regulus more. The song ends, with the singer beseeching the audience to tell the ones they loved that they never will forget. The singer is unable to do this (perhaps because they are already dead - see the past tense of 'loved'). I never will forget? The betrayal of Voldemort, perhaps? An undying loyalty to the family?

MAJOR trigger warnings below for rape/sexual abuse.

My response to @idioticconsultingdetective’s post.

When I was 15, I was raped. It has, naturally, left me with a lot of trauma. I still get intrusive memories sometimes, when my brain pushes traumatic moments to the forefront of my thoughts for no apparent reason.

It doesn’t happen much. Once or twice a year maybe. And yes, it has been happening today.

Every victim of trauma has their own coping mechanism. Earlier this year I found a fic on ao3 that I found actually helped. It was gross, disgusting (NOT romanticising anything as @potionsev has suggested) and I couldn’t tear my eyes away. Somehow - I’m sure a psychologist could tell me why - it helped me to compartmentalise my intrusive memories. I’m now more able to make myself believe the memories are just scenes from a story. Now, on the odd occasion it happens, I can go to that fic and convince myself I’m just reading a story.

I have never actively promoted that fic to anyone. The only reason it was discovered, someone looked at my ao3 bookmarks and found it. I should have made it a private bookmark, but to be quite honest I didn’t even consider something like this would happen.

When Twitter user ols7en asked me why, what was I to say? Was I to tell a 15 year old stranger, in 140 characters or less, that I was raped and the fic helped me process my trauma? Perhaps I should have not responded at all. I made a mistake in trying to brush it off as if it was nothing. I hoped they would move on, but perhaps I put too much stock in my irrelevance.

But at the end of the day, none of what I just said should matter. It shouldn’t matter why I read something. Policing what people read in fiction is policing thoughts, and as we hopefully all know, that’s a very, very slippery slope.

I don’t owe anyone this explanation. I’m giving it anyway because I know communicating my feelings helps me calm down from the near on 12-hour anxiety attack I’ve been having today.

Now, why did I delete my twitter account? Well, I’ve been close to it for a while now and this triggered my final decision. I’ve tried hard, for months, to fit in with the twitter fandom. It’s never worked. I’m not sure why - is it the generational gap? Is it the character limit restricting nuance? I’m not really sure. I’m the same person here and there, and here I seem to be vaguely popular. So there’s got to be something different between the two platforms restricting me from bridging the gap.

Pandora pointed out two things.

1. Sexualising Snape and Alan Rickman. We all do it here (mostly). Not so much on twitter - why? Again, who knows. Maybe in hindsight I should have restricted minors from following me.

2. ‘Attacking’ other users for developing minor characters. Not at all what happened, again perhaps this is due to the character limit restricting nuance. I tweeted in response to someone else that I found it confusing to log on and see people talking about characters I’ve never heard of. It certainly wasn’t an attack. Some people took issue with my describing them as ‘original’ - as if this is something I, with my 200k-word OC fanfic, would ever use in a derogatory sense.

What has really saddened me is the way Pandora has made this a personal goal to… whatever her goal is here. It’s sad because I liked her. I thought we were getting on. Then to be told I was never liked - that hurt. Why follow someone and interact positively while harbouring resentment? Why not simply not follow, not interact? I feel silly being personally hurt by a stranger on the internet, but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t.

Finally, to end on a positive note, I want to say a great big THANK YOU to everyone who has been kind to me today. I have told my side of the story to friends and they’ve comforted me, but more than that, people I don’t interact with have come to my defence. People who don’t follow me, who don’t know me or my side of the story. They’ve seen Pandora’s post and defended me. That, to me, is the true nature of the Snape fandom. 💚🐍

Deleted scene from Harry Potter led to strange thoughts about Karkaroff and Snape i'm cringe but i'm free

[mxlfoydraco]

do you think it would have been in character/nice etc to have draco give the wand to harry in the end like the deleted scene in DH?

I think so! I do believe that Draco, consciously or not, let go of his wand without too much resistance in the manor scene.

Draco’s last interaction with Harry was the fiendfyre too. Harry willingly saved him from burning alive by risking himself. He doesn’t want Harry dead, see non-id in Manor and him yelling at C&G to not kill Harry.

None of the Malfoys are actively fighting for Voldemort in the battle of Hogwarts. Narcissa lies, Draco’s looking for his wand, Lucius just wants to find Draco. Lucius thought siding with Voldemort would bring him power and influence, instead they’re humiliated and one temper tantrum away from getting killed.

Lucius weaseled his way out of charges before but Voldemort just killed Snape. Lucius is dirt under his shoe, they aren’t safe even if he won. I believe they really wanted Voldemort to lose. So yeah, I think he would throw his wand at Harry. It’s how they would get out alive.

Snape stopping Witch teen pregnancy. You can't say that he doesn't care for the students futures. X3

I can see why this scene was deleted. It's really silly with Snape stopping teenagers from having potential sex.
