Soap is extremely good at math, but his methods for getting his answers confuse Ghost to no end. He goes through added steps to equations Ghost would never even consider, he somehow factors and simplifies at the same time. Despite how complicated Soap's process seems to be though, Ghost has yet to see him be wrong.

Ghost asks Soap about his process once between missions. They're relaxing on base and Soap is going over his formulas for his demolitions, looking for any improvements he could make. Ghost gets another glance at his nearly illegible equations and forgets to hold his tounge before it's too late.

"How in the bloody hell do you make sense of all of that?" He grumbles out, sounding more confused than anything.

Soap glances over to where Ghost is peeking at his notes, and he offers a genuine smile.

"Ah dunno'. Just kinda clump together the things that make most sense." Soap answers. He points to a specific part of his notes as he speeks, but it does little to make them any more clear for Ghost.

Ghost hums and considers the answer for a second.

"Well it's impressive, Johnny. Lord knows I couldn't do all that."

He hardly thinks the praise is anything special, but then he's looking back to Soap's face and he's just beaming at Ghost, and damn if he can't fight off his own smile.

Taika still wears some of Ed's jewelry.

Taika got some of Ed's tattoos, quite literally carving Ed's spirit into himself in permanent ink.

It is both upsetting & embarrassing that David - who is, more than any of us, in mourning - felt the need to DEFEND Taika's love of and commitment to OFMD because of some of y'all.

Severus Snape lives

I will forever scream to the heaven’s that SEVRUS SNAPE DIDNT DIE -- He tricked us all like he fooled everyone else. OKAY 

Don't write me off just yet!!

Nagini bit him on Voldemort's orders right? We all saw it heck Harry saw it -- BUt BUt what if he did not actually die?

My Son 

HIM 

Look at him he’s as Clever as they come. okay 

IF

IF anyone and I mean anyone had even the smallest chance at surviving poisonous snakes its that guy.

because as we’ve come to learn his is a brilliant wizard:

“Luckily Professor Snape was able to do enough to prevent a rapid spread of the curse --" said  Dumbledore "Why him?" asked Harry quickly. "Why not Madam Pomfrey?"

"Professor Snape knows much more about the Dark Arts than Madam Pomfrey, Harry.”

(Honestly it’s it just infuriating how he says that? He coulda just said: 

“He’s an extraordinary wizard Harry, THANK MERLIN HE HAD WHAT WAS NECESSARY TOSAVE THAT CHILD. CAUSE OUR HEALER HAD NO IDEA WHAT TO DO. SIS COULDA DIED AND BEEN MOANING MYRTLE THE SECOND.

  The way Dumbledaddy said it just rubs me the wrong way. )

Anyways I assure you he had the cure for  Nagini’s venom , its another question entirely if he used it for himself...

That leads me to point 2:

Did my poor Severus have a reason to live? We know he was a bit depressed and honest a bit unhinged by that point. Maybe you think he would not have had it any other way other than death -- he was an honorable man. 

 If so then shouldn't he had help Harry out till the very end?

Lmao

NO. Dumbledore told him the only way for the war to end was for harry to die.  

I THINK HIS PLAN WAS TRY UNTIL HE DIED. MAYBE EVEN HE MADE IT A GAMBLE? WHO KNOWS? COULD HE HAVE KNOW HE WOULD HAVE DIED BY HER VENOM? DID HE LEAVE IT UP TO FATE? DID HE HAVE A PLAN B TO MAKE IT OUT ALIVE? WHO KNOWS???

BUT THE WHOLE POINT OF THIS POST IS TO SAY I THINK HE DID FOR MY OWN SELFISH REASONS! 

Maybe Severus himself wouldn't want to do such a cowardly or self preservation tact depends on who you ask but my boy had already done enough he saw his chance an you bet your arse he took it and escaped with his life, a dark mark free hand and a sick snake bite scar.

What I'm saying is He didn't need to stick the war out BUT he did need to die with witnesses to his death. (Maybe he even left a fake body?)

Who better that the golden boy himself -- I'm sure he wouldn't have wanted to do that to Harry as he had witnessed so many deaths himself... (both of them had really)

But so is life -- the dark lord though him dead, he could just not act the part. Less the Tom kill him and make sure this time round.

But that still hasn't answered : Did he have a reason to live? 

Point 3:

We know when we see Severus’ old childhood home in Spinner's End its described as:

 A tiny sitting room, which had the feeling of a dark, padded cell. The walls were completely covered in books, most of them bound in old black or brown leather; a threadbare sofa, an old armchair, and a rickety table stood grouped together in a pool of dim light cast by a candle-filled lamp hung from the ceiling. The place had an air of neglect, as though it was not usually inhabited.

in my stubborn fantasy were he is alive and well -- GUESS WHAT FOLKS! 

He doesn't live there. Nope.

Now I know he’s a depressed loner who doesn't have a record with having nice things. He’s a gloomy office and the defense against the dark arts classroom he decorated was pretty much on brand. So why wouldn't he live in that childhood home?

He seems like the type to live in the past, right?

AGAIN WRONG.

HE HAS BEEN LYING TO US. HE HAS. 

using the example up there with his home first :

“The place had an air of neglect, as though it was not usually inhabited.”

this is all i need.

He has to live there for two month every year, plus its being used now some how it should feel like someone lives there. personal items,,,,, something! if thats his home!  

Wormtail was forced to stay in his room all the time, and hes looking to get Severus in trouble so why would Severus leave his shit laying around?

 “an air of neglect” yah cause he probably hasn't been there in years til wormtail was forced to stay here.  He probably had there listed as his place of residence, why well get into later, from how the even down to the furniture sounds, it sounds thrown together. to fit his brand, of gloomy and mess the fuck up and lets not forget comfy for homeboy worm tail. (bet it had a broken fire place)

why would someone who has moved on with the war for like 10 + years bring that shit back into any life he built? having wormtail the man literally responsible for lilys death in HIS house? where HE lived? 

NO RAT MAN LIVE IN THIS DUSTY PLACE I PUT HORRID BOOKS I DONT WANT MY CHILDREN GETTING INTO. PLUS HE APEASED THE DARK LORD! 

A WINS A WIN. I DONT CARE

The black sisters just pop in for a visit -- who wants Bella near their family????? No you rich fucks please come into this ‘home’ of mine. eat with the poor. welcome. No doubt they looked down on him like everyone else but now they need his help. Fancy that. 

Why would he have his new life mixed with his old? why so these no goods can come and run the show? darken his hallways? fuck that! You think he wants dummybolr coming knocking on his door talking with his kids and partner and using them as a pawn so SEverus could do as he says?? NO he’ll keep his old home just as it is, a safety haven for every member of his past to come visit and demand him. 

Kill me!

Protect the boy!

take a vow and protect my son!

Yall in the back : HE DIDNT HAVE  A LIFE! HE HAS NO FRIENDS OR FAMILY!

says who? Cause he NEVER EVER mixed them in with his job? knowing when Harry came into school his shit would get rocked? All the happiness he found (ON HIS OWN) over the years that we never knew because he didn't want it to be destroyed from a mistake he made at 19 - 21 ish??  the maths aint mathing.

Plus how many of us know much anything about our antisocial teachers life? i didn't even know my teachers had families!

Maybe his Partner though he was crazy, his kids hated he made them go to school in France and they really only saw him some weekends or certain days when he went off to be with them -- other than summer when they had him certainly. Heck even for Christmas he never took time off! He had to do a seamless job to make sure no one ever caught on to him. Maybe he missed birthdays and maybe everyday his kids begged him to stop taking part. maybe his partner said they could handle whatever came together, maybe they argued more than they saw each other because they just wanted Severus to live -- to come out alive.

BUT HE KNEW HOW HE FELT WHEN HE HEARD AND SAW FOR JUST FOR REFUSING THE DARK LORD IT MEANT DEATH AND MAYBE EVEN THE EXTINCTION OF AN ENTIRE FAMILY  -- HOW COULD HE SUBJUCT HIS FAMILY TO THAT? FUCK IF ITS LIKE 10 YEARS IN THE FUTURE. ALL HE KNEW IS THAT ONE DAY IT WOULD COME.

IN CONCLUSION,

If Severus could lie to :

1. Voldemort

2. Dumbledore

3. The Hogworts staff who he was friends with.

Maybe even others take your pick! 

Who are we?

He wanted to live -- But more than anything to do that he had to be free, Free of his past and when Severus Snape died. He finally was.

SEverus Snape. Professor Snape. the Shadow.

the man he made into a character, who he shaped into an unpleasant person, so he wouldnt have any ties that ran too deep, he made everything Severus Snape had to show for himself an addition to that character so no one would be any the wiser. 

I refuse criticism and Reject criticism

thankyou ~

i’m curious and idk if you’ve answered something like this before but what type of music do you think matt and jane like, both individually or maybe what they’re introduced each other too etc etc

ok so I've been thinking about this since it came in but haven't had time until now BUT

Matt first! Matt mentions in S2 at the gala that he likes to listen to 90s Top 40. This includes a shit ton of good stuff - you've got everyone from Whitney Houston and Elton John to Nirvana and Green Day (no way teenage Matt didn't have a Green Day period). On top of that, in the comics iirc he mentions enjoying Jazz, and I know Charlie's been asked the same question and said he imagined Matt would like listening to classical (if I was building on that last one along with Matt's stated fondness for 90s top 40, I'd say he'd especially enjoy, say, an artist like David Garrett who frequently does rock covers with his violin). I could pick just one of those to lean into as to what Matt likes, but I don't think I need to. I think it's far more likely that Matt's a blend of musical tastes, because with his heightened senses, there'd be different things to appreciate with each. And while I do think there are songs and sounds he finds unpleasant, I think he can swing around pretty easily between genres. I see him listening to a fair amount of 90s/2000s rock (tends to drown the world out, and the rebellious streak in him probably takes some pleasure in enjoying what he might have been told was 'worldly listening' by nuns). But I also see him as enjoying a fair amount of softer classical songs or pop and folk (easier on his ears, or nice for dates as we know), as well as jazz (relaxing). This is great for Jane, because it means Matt would have an excellent talent for pulling out old hits she only vaguely remembers listening to but really enjoyed, and also for following her on whatever musical journey she takes - he'd also be a little more up to date on music than her, so he'd probably introduce her to some new(ish) alt artists, softer sounds usually - Jaymes Young, some of Hozier's newer stuff, songs he thinks she'll connect to.

Sweet moment: somewhere lost in the mountain of asks in my box I vaguely remember someone saying they could see Matt liking to play Jane love songs to see if he could get her to sing them later, like she was singing to him. And I love this and agree with it. Especially on bad and broken, self-loathing days, cause he needs love on those days, wants to hear Jane hum or quietly sing the words, because then it's like she's singing all that love to him. And once she figures out that's what he's doing, she makes a point of doing it more often, even putting on the songs herself and mumbling them quietly as he lays with his head on her chest, her fingers in his hair.

Jane next. I had to think about this for a while (and as always, as musical preferences are VERY personal, ya'll are free to disregard this). I can tell you that while she's ok with classical now and can even enjoy it sometimes (first date), she had to work at that one with Ciro since there was a lot of classical played 'for brain development' while she was at White Coat's facility. Outside that though, she wasn't sure what she liked when she first came out. She tried a lot of things with Ciro and Eli and Sophia, much like she did with food, hunting for what she enjoyed. I think, at least initially, a lot of the music she heard - classical, pop, jazz, country, ballads, Disney even - was too... gentle. Cause this poor kid? She was angry. She felt awkward, out of place. She still felt trapped by nightmares and PTSD, and wanted to feel free, to shout, to revel in something that wasn't slow and measured and soft, something that seemed to acknowledge the pain of what she'd went through. But you know what channeled those feelings really well? Fucking punk rock. And if we assume she's close to Matt's age, then at 16 she was freed at the right time to roll right into Green Day, Paramore, Fall Out Boy, and My Chemical Romance. I think she vibed hard with that genre during those few years with Ciro before going on the run again, and it's something she'll always have a fondness for even if she's now expanded her tastes - because ultimately I think, with where she's at now, she's become a bit of a racoon. She'd delight in listening to artists across multiple genres based solely on some random quirk or line or chorus that stuck in her head, just because she can. Which means Matt's just as likely to come home to Jane howling along to a nostalgic punk rock song as he is to her blasting some random Broadway tune she heard in a cab (no one is immune to Lin Manuel) or a Taylor Swift song on loop because this sounds like us, Matt, what the fuck, have you heard this?

Funny moment: needless to say she is not prepared for Dance Dance to be her song of the evening as Matt walks through the door one night - she freezes, wondering if this is going to be an Ow My Ears song.

At least until he throws out, 'I'm two quarters and a heart down' and tosses his cane as her eyes light up and he grins-

-then the chorus hits and they both fucking rock.

They both wind up collapsed on the floor giggling. And that's when she is reminded that, yet again, Matt is the perfect man to go with her wherever her music journey takes her.

#the red thread #jane was a punk rocker when she was with ciro cause she related #and frequently dragged Eli to concerts much to Ciro's amusement #cause Eli listened to a lot of country and classic rock and this Was Not His Thing but he Did It For Love #now she's a racoon and listens to a shit ton of stuff #with special preferences given to nostalgic punk rock and literally any song with lyrics she relates to #and like a racoon she takes the song and dips the music in the brain water and if its clean little core has a lyric she likes #it goes in the pile #matt favors 90s top 40s whether that's rock or ballads or pop #along with a smattering of classical (especially classical covers of pop/rock) and jazz and pop #but he's also a romantic so soaring ballads are nice to his ears and so are some of the softer indie singers #and foggy got him into train #and he has a streak of punk rock in him that lingers cause seriously look at this vigilante man #look at the scrappy baby matt child he is a child ready to fight the world look at his tiny fists this boy will fight you #MATT HAD A GREEN DAY PHASE I STAND BY THIS #I DIE ON THIS HILL #matt murdock #jane hind #also they listen to hozier regularly fight meeeee
