More ships! Severus Snape/Charity Burbage, Severus Snape/Petunia Dursley, Narcissa Black/Lily Evans, Narcissa Black/Remus Lupin
thank you very much for the ask, anon! lots of delicious ships here to get into...
charity burbage/severus snape
i'm going to start this one by pointing out something which features a lot in discussions of snape's relationship with dear old chazza b, and which i have elected to find annoying even though it's spectacularly minor:
in the book [or - certainly - in the original edition, which is what i have] of deathly hallows, charity does not say that she and snape are friends while pleading for her life. this is an invention of the films, which are rather more heavy-handed at hinting that snape isn't really a loyal death eater with blood-supremacist views than the text is.
but, nonetheless, she does still beg him to spare her... and so she must retain some belief in snape's capacity for goodness even though she must be aware, as a hogwarts teacher, that he murdered dumbledore only days beforehand...
which is to say that i love the idea of a bit of snarity [snurbage? burbape?] in a story which didn't deviate from the canon timeline. it is just exquisitely nasty to imagine the two coming together during the goblet of fire to half-blood prince period, initially just for something casual - since snape knows he can't commit to anything given his role as a spy - which then turned into something deeper he was occasionally driven to allow himself to imagine might be able to become a real relationship after the war...
...and then him having to look a woman he's fallen in love with in the eyes and arrange his features into a malevolent smirk while this is happening:
Voldemort raised Lucius Malfoy’s wand, pointed it directly at the slowly revolving figure suspended over the table, and gave it a tiny flick. The figure came to life with a groan and began to struggle against invisible bonds.   “Do you recognize our guest, Severus?” asked Voldemort.  Snape raised his eyes to the upside-down face. All of the Death Eaters were looking up at the captive now, as though they had been given permission to show curiosity. As she revolved to face the firelight, the woman said in a cracked and terrified voice, “Severus! Help me!” “Ah, yes,” said Snape as the prisoner turned slowly away again.
and then to have to pretend to be completely unruffled as voldemort kills her in front of him.
delicious.
petunia dursley/severus snape
this is one i really, really back.
i’m fond of petunia, who i think is one of the most interesting characters in the series because of how full of contradictions she is.
and who i think is also a victim in fandom spaces of how the adult cast was aged up for the films [in canon, she’s only in her early twenties when lily dies, and the implication is that vernon is a good deal older than her]. her inadequacies, such as her inability to truly care for either child in the household, seem much more nuanced in a woman of twenty-three, who has a toddler and whose entire family is dead, than they do if she’s pictured as a middle-aged woman with considerable life experience.
and like snape, petunia teeters on a knife edge between various chasms: she's a working-class girl from the midlands made good in middle-class surrey, he's a working-class half-blood boy who spends most of his life in pureblood circles; she ends up with her whole life wrapped up in a square little house when she’s barely out of her teens, he ends up with his whole life wrapped up in spying at the same age; she hates the wizarding world and yet covets it, he hates the muggle world and yet cannot escape it; she loves lily and she hates her and she loathes her for dying, he… well, you know the rest.
all of these similarities - especially when combined with the long history of resentment between snape and petunia [she thinks he stole lily from her! he thinks she was the first person to try and keep lily from him!] - makes snetunia just so compelling.
and if you're convinced and desperate to really get into the mess, you're in luck - because you can read the magnificent regretfully, yours by @maria-de-salinas, which takes snape and petunia's bitterness and awkwardness and grief and guilt and remorse and turns it into something really quite beautiful...
narcissa black/lily evans
ok, so i'm afraid to say that narlily is one of those marauders-era ships which i don't fully get the increasingly popularity of - and so, if you do ship it i would be thrilled to get your recs and manifestos as to why.
my objection doesn't actually have anything to do with narcissa being a blood-supremacist [although i don't think i'd vibe with a story which didn't address this at all - and i'm not compelled by a common version of fanon!narcissa which has her as not sincerely holding these beliefs: she is just as much of a bigot as lucius] - i think something quite interesting could be done with narlily [as in all death-eater-with-a-non-pureblood ships] as a vehicle for an examination of the hypocrisy of blood-supremacy; and with narlily as a femslash ship specifically as a vehicle for an examination of how sex with a non-pureblood which has no chance of resulting in pregnancy would be more acceptable in a culture which is so obsessed with heritage and lineage than sex which could.
why i don't really think it would slap for me, though, is that narcissa always comes across in canon as someone who is conformist and a bit staid - largely, as i've written about elsewhere, because she feels a desire to perform according to the gendered conventions expected of a woman of her class background as a way of deflecting the shame brought upon her family's standing in polite society by bellatrix and andromeda's behaviour. lily - on the other hand - is famously a bit bolshy - cheeky and adventurous and argumentative and stubborn.
and so i simply do not imagine their personalities either working well together in any meaningful way or clashing spicily [they'd clearly both regard the other as not worth their time popping off at].
please change my mind!
narcissa black/remus lupin
this, on the other hand... yes. hook it into my veins.
they both live behind masks - hers of gendered social convention, his of self-loathing - which have, at their core, the idea that a proper witch and wizard must be "civilised". and while they both seem to prefer to embrace these masks, there is the potential lurking beneath them for both of them to break free and be wild and raw in the realities of themselves.
plus... imagine if you've also got the post-1981 context of lupin trying desperately to understand how sirius could have become the death eater who would betray james to voldemort and narcissa and lucius trying to establish the fiction that he was under the imperius curse during the first war with the ministry, well before they feel comfortable becoming as complacent in their conviction that voldemort's not about to return as they are at the start of the canon narrative.
lovely misery.

I have a question
Do Snaters think "Anti Lily" means "pro snily"? Cause it doesn't. Im not mad that she didn't choose Snape, darling.
If you couldn't tell, since my bio was obviously read, I prefer Snape to be with the older Evans sister
Snetunia for life in this household

So... hi!
New blog, not so new to the fandom, trying to get back in the loop and follow some pro-snape blogs, read some fics, and get writing again.
If you have any Severus prompt ideas, feel free to send them my way!
I have a few things planned out, but I'd rather warm up and write something people are interested in, first!

Petunia: Hey, Severus, what do you think it would be like if we had kids?
Severus: What would it be like? Inconvenient, mostly.
Petunia: No, I mean, what would they be like, the kids? You ever think about it?
Severus: Can't really say I have.
Petunia: You know, for someone as eccentric as yourself, you can be boring as fuck sometimes.
Severus: Sorry, Tunia. For what it's worth, I'm picturing them now. A boy and a girl. Two perfect little freaks of nature raised by people who've clearly got no business bringin' up anybody.

When Petunia was younger and she learned about potions from Lily/Sev she secretly, on multiple occasions, tried mixing together a bunch of random ingredients (or even stole a textbook and tried to follow the instructions with her limited access to the proper tools and ingredients) in the hopes of proving she had some sort of magical ability.
It obviously didn't work.
Cut forward several years when she shares the embarrassing story with Severus, her now-or-eventual boyfriend, who smiles and asks if she wants to assist him in making real potions.
She does.
(Petunia helping him grow ingredients in their garden?? Petunia being his official assistant and opening an apothecary together?? Starting a family and it becoming a family business that spans several generations??)

Petunia Recs
The world needs more Petunia love, yeah? She's so fascinating to think of, to wonder who she is beyond the awful person we know from canon. Imperfect, but human all the same. With that in mind, here are some of my favorite Petunia fics! (Plus an art!)
Under the Stars
ART by A_LoveUnlaced (@a_loveunlaced.) Petunia/Severus. Rated: G. Post-divorce. Angst with a happy ending. Smooching.
Art commissioned for the fic Under the Stars by Charlie9646
which one of us will survive the other
by leftsideisdown (@broomsticks.) Petunia/Lily. Rated: M. Words: 1,292. Mild dub-con. Incest.
Petunia’s wanted magic her whole life. Then again, she’s always wanted what she couldn’t have. What she shouldn’t want. One night, all her dreams come true.
Barking at the Moon
by rinsbane. Petunia/Severus. Rated: E. Words: 10,876.
Okay, this one sounds like a cheap porn cliché.  Sexy workman comes to door, lonely lady of the house succumbs to his, er, charms.  Except, Snape, so not quite.  Takes place the summer after Harry’s 6th year.
I'll Take Less (when I always give so much more)
by RoozetteR. Petunia & Luna. Harry/Severus. Rated: M. Words: 24,294. Illnesses. Established relationship.
Just because you know somebody doesn’t mean you know them. Especially when it comes to family.
Old Money, New Blood (Or, Petunia Malfoy and the New World Order)
by someryn. Petunia/Lucius. Rated: G. Words: 6,860. Political marriage. Crack treated seriously. Enemies to frenemies to lovers.
After an unexpected conversation with her son, a widowed Petunia Dursley meets a newly divorced Lucius Malfoy, who sees an opportunity to benefit both of them. And thus begins the strangest adventure of Petunia's life. Featuring an earnest Dudley Dursley, a horrified Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy, an amused Ginny Weasley, an utterly absent Narcissa Malfoy, and Petunia and Lucius' softening hearts.
Self(Deception)
by space_mermaid, art by Anaxandria (@anaxandria-writes) and digthewriter (@digthewriter.) Narcissa/Petunia. Rated: E. Words: 58,096. Rape/Non-con. Postwar. Slow burn. Friends to lovers. Secret identity. Family drama. Past rape. Past abortion. Implied incest. Self-harm. Suicidal thoughts. Minor Drarry. Homophobia. Violence.
Narcissa Malfoy is sentenced to two years of rehabilitation. She and Lucius take on new names and live amongst Muggles, a task made all the more arduous by their prickly handler. Although Narcissa is confident in her ability to fake it til she makes it, she quickly realises her freedom is not guaranteed. And her motives are muddied as she becomes closer to a kind Muggle woman. Petunia Dursley is struggling to find her footing when Dudley leaves for university. She joins the Eardisley Women’s Institute despite Vernon’s grumblings. Her goal of making acquaintances suitable to invite over for tea is overshadowed after a chance encounter with the mysterious newcomer to the village. As she grows closer to Priscilla, everything she thought she knew about herself unravels.
Every Saint is An Accident
by TeddyRadiator. Petunia/Severus. Rated: E. Words: 13,711. MCD.
Petunia Evans saw her sister as the the symbol of perfection she could never attain. Severus Snape saw her as the ultimate woman he could never win. They saw one another as the ultimate revenge for what they could never have.
The Box
by titC (@titconao3.) Petunia POV. Harry/Severus. Rated: T. Words: 6,274. Postwar.
Years after she last saw Harry, Petunia and Vernon move back North. During the move, Petunia finds a mysterious box that she's all but forgotten... it stirs too many memories and emotions back to life.

saw your marauders era ship post and wanted to ask what you think of ships like snetunia and snucius.
ooh glad u liked it!! ok here are my thoughts:
snetunia -- definetely happened at some point in the canon universe and u cannot convince me otherwise!! sev lost his virginity to petunia during the summer of fifth year so real. They're messy, hateful and toxic and are only a one night stand in every universe lol
snucius -- i must say this ship has never even occured to me. Personally I don't see it ever happening but i can be convinced otherwise lol.

my snape/snetunia headcanons
first off he’s bisexual bc i’m bi and i say so
second off he has a shit ton of maternal cousins that treat him either like a sibling or an uncle and it annoys the shit out of him but whatever
he has either a cat or a raven. he would name the cat after something noble or intellectual and the crows name is jade.
him and petunia became friends after fifth year, because neither had many friends
he can fistfight like a bitch, but prefers to use magic
petunia is a squib, so he teaches her about the floo, potions, and herbology.
when lily and james run into him in cokeworth, they’re both surprised at how unaffected he is about them
lily’s pissed about it too
i’d like to think that he enjoyed swimming, either competitive swimming or just fun swimming.
he really likes sugar quills
by the time he’s 15-16, he has a summer job and therefore slightly better clothes
while most assume his house is dark and moody, he repainted it after his dad died.
the outside is a pale blue and the inside has soft greens and flowers
outside of his teaching robes he mostly wears baggy clothes such as cargo pants and loose tshirts
it’s because he doesn’t like his body
he has three meals a day, but they’re very small meals.
he totally follows the wheel of the year. his favorite sabbat/solstice is mabon, because it isn’t major, so he gets to have a quiet little thing to himself at a nice time of year.
he’s the gossip king of the faculty i will fight you on this

Snetunia Anon with a fic idea
Sev and Tuney have a kid the same age as Harry
They go to school together and meet at Hogwarts because their parents don’t talk. First they hate each other but Harry gets to know his cousin and they become best friends like Harry felt about the hb prince in year 6
they’re both in Slytherin
Omg Snetunia anon hi!! @halfblood-princes-crown Seph look
YES. Gimme an enemies-to-friends for these two, they’d be so cute as 11 year olds bickering and then becoming friends later on. A lot of slow burn and Harry-learning-about-his-shit-parents should be involved.
If James and Lily are alive then this would be a great opportunity for 1. angst with them and Harry after he learns about their history with Snetunia and 2. Lily mending her relationships with Tuney and Sev.

I love love talking about severus and petunia, my headcaon is petunia never got like sentimental gifts or just thing that she liked, you know how boys don’t care really and severus is like the first person to ever acknowledge what she likes, maybe he gives her something on her birthday way before they start dating and she’s like "…oh, you remembered I mentioned this?:0"
I love this because it's accurate in my eyes. Snape strikes me as a detail oriented person and ofc that would get 100x stronger with someone he cares about.
Im talking, if she mentioned her birthstone...best believe her wedding ring was gonna be that stone...
He knows exactly how she likes her tea/coffee within a week of talking
The specific shade of a color that she likes
What does she get passionate about? What makes her eyes light up when she sees it? Birthday present. Christmas present. Anniversary present. Valentines day present. Etc.
She mentioned a food she wanted to try? A place she wanted to visit? An item she wanted to have? He remembered, here you go.

Did you also create a snape x petunia?
Y e s
Her name is tulip, she is a ravenclaw who is besties with Luna and has love tension with Neville but doesn’t do anything about it because she is dating Blaise✨
She looks like Severus but you’ll have to look closer to actually see it since she has blonde hair
She really likes rollerskating.
I also have an attachment to Hannah brown so she will be in this,
I’ve been thinking about giving her a brother that 100% looks like Severus (because Severus hates how he looks like so when he sees his son looking like him he will finally learn to love his appearance)
