The Snape Family - 1970

Snapetober Day 16: Tangle

[desert-rotten-soul]

Vestidos Incomodos.

Headcanon: Eileen used her own dresses to make clothes for Severus. At first, he was happy, but after crossing paths with a muggle who questioned his attire, he began to feel uncomfortable wearing the clothes his mother gave him. Moreover, his interest in making friends with muggles faded away.

Tired of the clothes his mother gave him, Severus went directly to complain to her. However, before pushing open the door to his mother’s room, he heard her crying and lamenting that she couldn’t give him better clothes, so he decided not to say anything.

Here's my take on Snape's family... I feel like I've done a good job on capturing the essence of what Eileen and Tobias were, or at least what I believe they were.

[sleepybradipo]

old memories

In one of the few quiet moments at Spinner's End — and Tobias was was away from home — Eileen took out her old kit for potions and battered books and taught her son the art of potions.

Severus Snape Headcanons for my upcoming Fanfic!

Uses Muggle supplies

For studying & note taking in class because they're cheaper than Wizarding supplies.

Ex: spiral notebooks, wooden pencils, pens

Only ever uses his parchment and ink quills when doing class work and essays that need to be turned in.

Professor Flitwick noticed and charmed his pen so that the ink will last until the school year ends.

"Best to not tell" is all he said when he did before awarding him 10 points for his cleverness and resourcefulness.

Is Actually Left Handed

But because Tobias deemed it another "freakish" trait from his mother, broke his fingers every time he caught him writing, forcing him to use his right hand, therefore making him ambidextrous.

Reason why his school work is immaculate and his notes are a complete mess. because even though his left hand has a slight tremor, he still uses it in the comfort of his own privacy.

His Mother is Jewish so He Knows a Bit of Hebrew

When he's in Potions or any other class that require numbers, he only ever counts in the language under his breath.

The Marauders (not Remus) think his mumblings are incantations of Dark Magic spells because of course they do.

He Was a Late Bloomer

Meaning his first growth spurt happened during the summer between 4th and 5th year.

His voice changed to a deep throaty tone that everyone immediately pointed out. Both Severus and Eileen mastered honey-lime tea.

He refused to speak for almost half of first term & only relented when Regulus told him how his voice is perfect for Reading Nights. Especially if he's reading in Hebrew.

(the Slytherins have a short of "poetry night" which I find kinda cute)

He Steals the Library's Candles

Madam Pince is convinced its the Marauders so she has made countless complaints to Headmaster Dumbledore, but he just lets it be. Claiming how wonderful it is that students are working so hard into the night on their studies that they need the extra light.

Only that Severus uses the candles to coat and seal his more expensive and/or important potion ingredients since their wax is of more higher quality and its charmed to last longer than regular candles.

I've only posted a brief Prologue of sorts but feel free to check it out! ✌🏽

And if you like a bit of Snirius too, chapter 8 for To Take Your Name is currently being edited 😉

Tobias Snape at a time when he was young and didn't know Eileen was a witch..

[nightingale2004]

Severus's life if Tobias was an actual decent father and husband headcanons

When he finds out that Eileen and Severus are wizards, he takes a minute to take in the information (i feel like he is more the religious type) and even goes to church.

At first, he was angry that his own wife would hide that from him, but after much time and talking with a reasonable, open-minded, understanding priest, he went home and he and Eileen had a long talk.

He is a hard worker at the factory. He goes to work early but comes home late, and Eileen always makes him breakfast, lunch, and dinner and barely drinks but still drinks every now and then.

After Eileen told Tobias everything, he told her to educate him on the Wizarding world so he could have a better grasp of it.

After Tobias was educated on the Wizarding world, he did not like how relationships like his and Eileen's were looked down upon, which made him worried for Severus, especially when he got accepted into Hogwarts.

Severus still wears hand me downs but he does get some new clothes since they don't have a lot of money.

Tobias would be that husband and father that would glare or yell at someone who gave them looks or said/whispered something about them.

Tobias would not be afraid to fight somebody, magic or not. (YOU DO NOT MESS WITH THIS MAN'S FAMILY)

Whenever Severus comes back and he is acting different, he notices. He knows what being bullied looks like, and he talks with Severus about it

Tobias teaches Severus how to defend himself and shows him a couple of moves he learned in the military (the man obviously served)

Eileen would be more involved in Severus's life instead of being afraid.

When the "prank" happened, they immediately found out and gave Dumbledore h3ll for this. And they immediately pull Severus from hogwarts (but not before Tobias is about to give the marauders an old school a$$-whooping)

Eileen and Tobias transferred him to Durmstrang, where they kept a close eye on him (they are helicopter parents now, and u can't tell me otherwise)

Severus obviously noticed the struggle that his parents were facing, not just prejudice but the money struggle. So, growing up, he would always help his mom around the house, help cook and clean, and even sell some potions here and there. (He sells his potions to Tobias's work buddies)

Severus gives his dad potions to help his health and even casts a few spells on him to help him at work (Tobias even after all these years is still not used to it but is impressed by his son's brain)

When Severus graduated, a lot of potion masters wanted him, but he knew he couldn't afford it. So his parents both worked to scrounge him enough money to pay for his apprenticeship (severus helped, he's not letting his parents do all the work)

Severus's summer job as a teenager was helping out at either his father's factory or working at a bar

When Severus came out that he liked both girls and boys, both his parents weren't surprised. They found out a looooong time ago and had their time to process it. And they learned to accept him and his Sexuality in their own way.

Severus is a potion master, has his own apothecary, and his parents couldn't be prouder. He also has a medical and chemist degree. (So if anyone needs a doctor, he's your guy)

When Eileen passed away, Tobias was distant from Severus, but eventually, he learned to be close with his own son again for his wife's sake.

Tobias and severus visit Eileen's grave every year on her birthday.

After Tobias passed, Severus visits their grave in his free time just to talk to them and tell them about his life.

Severus is happier, calmer, and less depressed but still our favorite Sarcastic sharptounged Slytherin

He wouldn't join the deatheaters unless they threatened his parents. He would protect them with his life

Hope you guys love this little headcanons. Enjoy

Happy Snape family au

Eileen: Is letting someone win at chess sapiosexual bottoming? Tobias: Can everyone in this godforsaken family please learn the skill called "Think Before You Speak"? Severus: Ya know... it might be.

🦋

Tobias: What did Severus do this time? Eileen: More like WHO did Severus do this time?

🦋

Eileen: Severus is at that very special age where a kid only has one thing on their mind. Tobias: Boys/Girls? Severus: Homicide.

🦋

Eileen, gardening: Hey, can you bring me the hoe? Severus: Yeah, sure. *A few minutes later* Severus: Here you go. Eileen: Severus: Tobias: Why am I here?

🦋

Eileen: When Severus was born, the gods said, "He's too perfect for this world." Tobias: Please. When he were born, the devil said, "Oh, competition."

🦋

Tobias: *double checking supplies in the boat* Compass. CB radio. Sunscreen. Severus: Hot dog costumes! Tobias: I’m sorry, what? Severus: You know, in case we get lost at sea, and one of us, probably ma, goes mad with hunger, we’ll put these on. Ma hates hot dogs, so she probably won’t eat us. Tobias: Are you saying that your mother would rather eat us than hot dogs? Eileen: I DO hate hot dogs.

🦋

Eileen, holding out a cookie for Severus: Look! This ones a heart, that’s how I feel about you! Kid Severus: *Ugly crying* Eileen, holding out another cookie for Tobias: This ones like Michigan, that’s how I feel about you! Tobias, throwing his hands in the air: What does that mean?!

🦋

Severus: Why is everyone so obsessed with top or bottom? Honestly, I’d just be excited to have a bunk bed. Eileen: Eileen: I'm gonna tell him. Tobias: Don't you dare.

[hbpseverus]

Eileen Prince is very interesting to me, I wish we knew more about her and her relationship with Severus, but also her past. I would like to think they had a good relationship but realistically it was most likely strained because of the abuse she/both of them faced at home, she was probably for the most part emotionally absent. And maybe in a way there's a parallel between her and Severus. What if she resented her son because she couldn't help but see her abuser in him (and she hated herself for feeling this way)? The same way Severus would later feel about Harry? What if he inherited his mother's anger

[thoughtsaboutsnape]

Eileen Snape was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's when Severus was in his sixth year.

She was admitted to 'Saint Dymphna's Home For Wandering Minds'

Severus visited her every year at Christmas until the events of Chamber of Secrets.

Minerva McGonagall is the only one who knows about his mother.

After Severus's death, she couldn't face being the one to tell Eileen. Harry volunteered.

Eileen thought that Harry was her son and was delighted that he was visiting her again.

Not knowing what to do, Harry went along with her belief.
