_{snape can cook very well, which is a complete waste of talent given the fact he’s not incredibly passionate about food.  from time to time, however, he’ll cook himself a nice meal for a change.  this is something he picked up from his mother, who would, despite being a witch, make sure to make recipes with her own hands sometimes  —-   they are tastier this way, she used to say.  as a child, he would always watch her cook while standing on a stool.}

_{severus is seen wearing black for most of the year.   black is an easy color, it matches everything    —-   it is simple.  what tends to surprise most first-year students is that he tends to let go of that whenever slytherin goes into the quidditch pitch & wears their green instead.  if slytherin wins the cup, however, he’ll push that exception to a full week, partially to piss minerva off & partially because he’s just too proud of the team.}

IT WAS IMPRESSIVE HOW TWO WORDS  —-   _{two simple words drawn by the quick movement of her lips, so fast no sound came off them   —-  weighted on him like the world itself.  it was breaking cover or allowing harm to come to a student, & he’d taken vows to prevent both outcomes.  one pale hand was raised, urging the death eaters to stop.} 

                            _{‘ amycus, alecto, you may go. ’    he finally broke the silence.   ‘ i shall deal with her myself. ’}

HANDS WERE QUICKLY TUCKED INTO   _{the pockets of his robes without worrying whether that looked like he was trying to conceal something or not   —-  he was.   cold murder wasn’t in him as it was in her ;     it was an ugly, dreadful experience he would rather not have to repeat.  the corner of his lips was twisted into something that resembled a snarl more than a smile.}

LEAVING SOUNDED QUITE LIKE AN EUPHEMISTIC TERM,   _{being taken away seemed more correct in that context.  oddly enough, snape felt nothing in that regard.  not even numbness.  if anything, the man was a little disappointed that he did not waste away in crimson back at the shrieking shack   —-  it just seemed like the right ending to the part he played.   living was hardly in his plans.}
