[thelucyverse]

I have idk yet one or a few new characterssss in the lucyverssssee: Universals of one [insert Central names for any birthname- Severus Snape s]!

Ronin Prince

Soooo I got the general character background from The Billow Effect by Sheankelor on ao3, perhaps with a side of from Advice from a old timer by the same author, my brain hasn't decided yet (btw I don't go looking for characters to steal or ocify lol, I just read tons of fanfiction and sometimes a character sticks in my head, and I make up stories with them in the lverse, either like oh xycharacterialreadyhave could do that, or like oh a new universal! Or of course sb entirely new who doesn't have established universals yet, but, like, unlikely when it comes to HP fandom... Also if I actually wrote fanfic about the character I'd ask in advance and tag inspired by!)

Anywayyz I rly like the thing with the house elves, I feel like he and Clarissa would have a lot to talk about (not that I ship them, Kingcissa 4 life), just politics and stuff, and when they meet try to compare how far each universe got, which bills were passed etc... Cue Clara going 'ugh mom found someone to talk to again... I rly didn't think it'd be worse than with Sarin, but Tara'n'Tara did warn me...'

I haven't come up with a first name yet also bc I'm not entirely certain these aren't one and the same person, haven't had time to rly think through whether or not it all fits yet, but if it's a second person I rly want the last name to be Prince too...

...just so Saarin Snape (well, Snape-Alcott) is the only one to keep the name (apart from some evilies but then they wouldn't get central names anyways), solely bc a) he knew he'd take Lizzy's name anyways b) it sounds cool and by the time they did actually marry he was known as Sarin Snape so he hyphenated.

So for second lastname-Prince dude I'm uuuuuh ok sorryy I don't even rly ship this myself and I know it's quite cringeworthy to most who ship the things I ship, but I started reading fic bc a) authors I like write it and b) I just... Stopped caring?? I mean especially with HP bc it's just such a fandom where you could use 2 dice with character names on and one with types of relationships and like- find fanfiction for it (btw that is a game Central ppl espesh Kasha and AKA etc would play... Not the fanfic part the rolling dice & betting on who gets real ones or sth), but also in general bc the concept of OTP or just shipping a person in one relationship (not saying with one person bc poly exists) doesn't make much sense when a) you don't believe that a person is only destined to be with one soulmate or whatever and b) your headcanon universe is a multiverse where universals (=different universes' versions) of the same person can have totally different experiences and meet different people or the same people at different times etc etc...

Long story short: Snarry.

Just.

The ethical dilemmas of a multiverse

Where ppl also have the possibility to meet ppl from a different 'verse

Aaaaaaa

I mean imagine you're dating someone. Bit of an age gap, but like not too bad, and while you've known each other for longer you've only /really/ gotten to know each other in recent years, both adults that know what they're doing, and you're starting to date...

...and then ppl from a different universe show up where the dude you're dating adopted other you??? (not central-politically correct phrasing, correct would be 'a universal of you was adopted by a universal of him', but like, rly don't think you'd give much of a fuck in that situation).

Like, who's in the wrong here?

Clearly, no-one is- like, you can't tell two consenting adults to stop dating just bc if things had gone differently they could've been father and son instead. Just as you can't tell a father to un-adopt his son because in another universe his univ fell in love instead.

(Vicky, when asked, would just shrug it off like wtf I'm not the relationship police)

Sarin (LIS Snape) would be mildly uncomfortable just because it made him think that that option might have existed... But he had known, really known, His Harry since the boy was eleven, and his parental feelings for him aren't going to change. Plus, he's been with Central for years, he has an understanding of how being universals, having shared genetics and/or partially shared experiences doesn't make you the same person. (Then he just occludes so he doesn't have to think about it anymore.)

Har would be a bit uncomfortable too but then, he saw evil!Snape a few years back, nothing can top that really... Plus, that other Harry wasn't in Slytherin, so it's not like he could've gotten to know Prince/Snape as well as he knew Sarin at that age... And he has been told (Dray) that his dad really does look good. He can't really see it... Well, okay, he can, but it's his dad! Ew. Anyways, he gets how without already being father and son them liking each other might make sense. The age difference is a bit weird maybe, but then not much worse than Tonks and Remus... All in all, he's seen worse (Blaise's mother's husbands died every other year, so that's that for unhealthy relationship goals).

Prince (and I still don't know whether that would be Ronin Prince or not. On the one hand, it kinda fits? He wouldn't have actually gotten to know Harry during his school years, neither the other way around, so them getting together would be later, maybe both as professors or sth... Plus I don't know anyone else to ship him with apart from obscure crossovers for punsies sake *cough*Ronin/Ronin*cough*, and I don't want a character like him to end up all alonesies... On the other hand I have epic fight ideas that don't fit the theme xD althooooough I guess Ronin could fight without Central's help, or at least keep stay at acquaintance level... So when Central does meet him years later, we still get the situash above^^... And then maybe second! Prince could be the one from Advice From An Old-timer, so I don't merge them all... Btw yes I read literally all of sheankelor's ff in one go, that's how I'm on the Snarry track rn in the first place, bc of This Is My Life and other ffs)...

Prince would be mortified. Is the age difference really bad enough for him to be Harry's father??!? Well, obviously, he went to school with Harry's parents, but still... He hasn't thought of Harry as a child in years, the same way he doesn't think of other adults as children just because they are younger than him. But this... Ouch. Feels kinda quilty now. Although... Not for long, because as always it's Harry who comes onto him...

And that Harry? He can't see him as a father figure at all. He's half a mind to call him 'daddy' as a prank now, but- maybe he'd better wait until his lover isn't quite so disturbed anymore.....

Oh, and why did I start thinking about new Shape universals in the first place? Back to The Billow Effect! Sarin just strides in a powerful elegance, Ronin gets his robes to billow manually and the other one started putting a spell on his robes later in life. Similar stiles, different origins and different executions! I like :D would also be fun in a movie: practical effects for Ronin, animations for the other billow effect!
