Snape Imagines - Blog Posts
So I made a Severus Snape playlist, I had some dreams of Hogwarts marauders era and I had music playing,I can't sleep without noise, and in my dream young Severus Snape was singing and dancing with the other Slytherins, they were sorta like a band the they being (Severus, Lucius, Regulus, narcissa and Bellatrix), so it was like a flirty, angry sad and in love Severus Snape and he was just singing his thoughts and emotions the things he felt and a lot of the lyrics were altered to best fit him. And now I can't get it out of my head so I made a playlist with my dream in mind, I quit like it. You can imagine him singing about anyone, to anyone, any ships or friendships you want, ect.
✨let me know what you all think✨
HP Slurs
Snape is half blooded, everyone in the hp fandom should know that by now. So him calling Lily a mudblood isn't a big deal, right? I'm saying this as a black person that doesn't say the n-word because it's more of an American thing (I'm British), but grew up watching a lot of black centred forms of media. With all this consumerism I've come to recognise that anyone who is black can say the word.
"Mudblood" refers to a wizard or witch that comes from a muggle background, it not only refers to muggleborns but also halfbloods. In terms of the blood dynamic I'm using points of history, like how black people were looked down upon but if they were half black and/or lighter skinned then they were sometimes given better treatment. I think someone can explain this better than I can, but I think you guys understand where I'm getting at.
So Snape saying “I don't need help from filthy little Mudbloods like her!” is like saying "I don't need help from bit** a** nig*as". I'm censoring because I don't want to be banned or something.
No one has to agree, it's just something I can't help thinking about and I'm wondering about everyone else's views on this.
Also, the mudblood slur doesn't have the same significance as the n-word. Muggleborns taking the mudblood slur would've been a power move, but no. They just can't stand that word.
I headcanon that American muggleborns (Ilvermorny students) and halfbloods took notes from the black community and use the word for each other. Anyone with no lick of muggle in them gets the sh** beat out of them. Harry Potter and the halfblood Crip.
Thank You for listening to my Ted Talk.
