#Snape had no support system whatsoever
Note
I saw the supernatural post you made and I couldn't help but think that Snape would hate the Winchesters. The way they hunt down anything that isn't like them in nature to kill it would remind him of Voldemort. Thoughts?
Anon, you just started me on my bullshit
Ok ok!
That’s a good comparison! I like where your heads at. I was thinking more along the lines of he’d notice how different they were
Right off the bat of meeting, think about first impressions: Dean is shoot first ask questions later. A wizard? Time to die mf. Sam on the other hand is like “Wait, he hasn’t done anything! Let’s just talk to him and figure out what’s going on”
Right off the bat, Dean is not in Snapes favor, but Snape isn’t up Sams ass either. It takes a lot more than patience to impress our bat bitch
When Dean finally does agree to talk, what do we all know comes next? A self righteous, snarky remark. Strike mf two. Meanwhile Sam looks annoyed or mildly uncomfortable with whatever Dean said because they are, in fact, standing in front of someone who could kill them in one word. Literally. Now he’s trying to change the subject and ask what’s going on and the standard “making sure you aren’t a threat” questions. Snape is a double spy, he can read body language. Sam does not approve of his brothers behavior…but he hasn’t said anything about it either
Give or take 30 minutes to an hour, what’s the next thing Snape is gonna notice? Deans attitude towards Sam
Do you see where I’m going with this?
He’s going to compare Dean to Sirius black (derogatory). I said what I said.
One would think “Sam is Regulus then?” Nope. He’s Remus.
THINK ABOUT IT!
Sam has demon blood in his veins and is outcasted and shamed for it, even by people who are close to him. Sam has been putting up with Deans sideways remarks and straight up abuse for how long? He makes excuses for Dean and when he DOES stand up for himself, he always apologizes or feels guilty about it. Remus and his lycanthropy! We saw in the books how they made sideways jokes about it. Joking about the full moon and shit. Then we have to remember “The Prank”
Sam sees how overly violent Dean is about hunting, he also sees how unfair and cruel he is. He ALSO sees how that unfairness and cruelty extends to friends. And while Sam actually does say something, he never says enough, and usually makes at least one excuse for Dean…Remus “Bystander” Lupin!
Sam was told that he was someone’s weapon at least twice in the show (Yellow eyes and Lucifer). I mean that sounds a lot like how werewolf!Remus was used as a weapon to almost kill Severus in “The Prank”. Just saying.
Severus knows all too well that a person’s intentions don’t always match their actions, so I don’t think he’d judge them for hunting, but he will notice the INTENTIONS. Dean hunts for sport and Sam hunts to save people. Difference.
Dean Winchester would trigger the fuck out of Severus Snape

i like your theory about the guardianship, though much that is sinister can be made of it. I wonder why Rita did’t mention the guardianship in her article during DH. Probably didn’t advance her argument so she left it out?
Not sure how public his guardianship was, but yeah, she wouldn’t mention it if that explained all of Dumbledore’s actions regarding Harry. He was EVIL and SINISTER and had NO ALTRUISTIC MOTIVES WHATSOEVER, OKAY? Oh God, I just realised that when it comes to Dumbledore, fandom has turned into Rita Skeeter.
@feelsandotps
Coltrane has said in interview that what he’s wearing makes him 8'6 always
Thanks, I did not know that. But I still think that’s too small, really.
Dumbledore being somewhat Harry’s legal guardian would make so much sense, and be so much infuriating tbh
I mean, it’s only a theory but it does make a lot of sense. But it does make me wonder how Dumbledore thought he could remain cool and aloof from Harry when he had to mentor him. *lol*
@thepeverellthree
I wonder how many drinks that you would actually do if it were a drinking game
Way, WAY too many. *lol*
or Hagrid was minimizing what DD said to imply that they didn’t talk about him as much as they did. Hagrid isn’t the best at all social etiquette so IDK but it’s a thought.
Good point, Hagrid may have been trying to stem any questions about how aware DD was of Harry’s treatment.
I wonder if there is a child welfare service in the Ministry and if DD thought that taking matters into his own hand was “saving Harry from the Ministry’s childcare”.
Given how terrible the Ministry is at everything else, it wouldn’t surprise me.
If DD was Harry’s guardian then he could have signed Harry’s Hogsmead permission form hahahahahah
Hahaha, yup, but he probably wouldn’t have given what he knew about Sirius at the time.
@alluringcliche
Yes! Imagine if you’re Hagrid, he’s not even great at feelings and he has to tell Harry this HUGE thing
Well, it’s more that he’s not good at articulating feelings. But this would be a doozy for anyone, really.
the Ministry NEEDS child welfare. I mean there’s other issues with kids in the wizarding world having awful experiences namely Snape and Voldemort. Ron’s family barely made ends meet. It seems like theres no welfare system at all?
Off-topic but the Weasleys aren’t destitute, they keep chickens and grow their own veg, they have food and clothes (even if the clothes are second-hand). I suspect that Arthur’s salary hasn’t been raised much since he and Molly were newlyweds. So this is a salary that would be fine for two people or two parents and a baby, but the more babies they have, the harder it is to stretch the salary (plus Fred and George came along so then there were two babies at once). Given that he’s the head of a department that deals directly with Muggles and keeping wizarding societ secret, Arthur should be getting a fairly big salary, but clearly he doesn’t. Nor is he willing to kiss up to Fudge to get the salary he deserves and Molly supports him in this. I do agree that there seems to be a lack of welfare because Molly should be getting some money from the government for each child.
NEVILLE WAS THROWN DOWN A HILL.
I thought he was thrown out of a window? I don’t have the book with me to check.
def seems like DD has a lot of power, but as you can see from my prev. comments I guess it also seems to be the Ministry is a bit incompetent and/or there’s no system in place.
Oh, I agree. As I said to Jo, even if the Ministry did have a system in place, it would probably be terrible. Dumbledore just exploited the lack of rules, I think.
