So, I was searching for a good face claim for female Severus Snape (Sevrina or Severina, still deciding) and now I'm stuck between two great options and I can't decide:
Amita Suman (known as Inej aka knife wife aka love of my life, from Shadow and Bone)
I can't be the only one, right? Just look.at.her. She's perfect! The profile, the nose, the hair, the expression, the vibes. There are times when I'm picturing my Fem! Snape scenarios that her face just comes up to me, and she fits so well.
It also fits wonderfully in my headcanon that Snape is POC coded.
In here she's a badass. Strong minded and brave, but with a coveted warmness that few see. She doesn't let anyone, specially men, talk her down.
(and the green clothes, for fuck's sake. She's that girl)
Aaand
Mikey Madison (Amber in Scream, also known as Mommy, my queen and beautiful psycho)
I recently saw a tiktok claiming she would have been the perfect fem! Snape, and honestly, now I can't unsee it.
Canonically, Snape had very pale skin, almost sickly, and a big nose, so she's closer to the original source, while Amita is closer to my own headcanons. But c'mon, don't tell me you don't see it either.
She has the dark, creepy vibes, but also hot snarky gothic witch vibes. The photos encapsulate her character perfectly. Look at her pouty lips, her unimpressed stare. She's surrounded by idiots and judging everyone's life choices (spoiler: she's the least indicated person to do that)
Anyway, don't be too confused if I use both of them for my future fem! Snape posts. I can't pick, so I'll take them both.
One thing I don't get is how an entire Fandom could go from this
To this
As a fancast for both Draco Malfoy and Scorpius Malfoy.
I don't mean to hate on fics for using the second guy or anything, I just grew up reading fics with the first guy as faceclaims for both Draco and Scorpius.
Alessandra Di Sanzo, my next face cast for Severus.
Long black hair - checked.
Very pale skin - checked.
Slender, petite, medium tall silhouette - checked.
Sharp facial features - checked.
Penetrating, (almost) black eyes - checked.
This time Severus in a trans version. I love him this way, and I believe he could have been like this in the book. (No manly Snapes for me, thank you very much! I just hate him being very masculine, the less testosterone, the better, so I only like the book Severus, who was the opposite of a typical man).
I've been a fan of Alessandra since the 80s; she is incredibly beautiful both on the outside and inside (she's an animal activist and a vegetarian), and when I write trans!Severus, it's with her face in my mind. She is one of my idols who helped open my eyes to the fact that the world is not binary and black and white, and that I can be who I feel I am, no matter what body I was born into.
I can easily picture her in a long robe on her body, only with underwear underneath that, as Severus doesn't wear trousers, (if he does, he's not the Severus from the book, he's the Severus from the film, so for me he doesn't exist.)
Since apparently we’re going in the poc Pandora direction which I’m loving btw may I propose Bailey bass as Luna Lovegood, she’s got the big eyed whimsical look about her, her voice is actually sweet and lyrical and just look at her dimples I honestly fully head canon Luna with dimples now
Oh btw Luna’s full name is Luna Deneb Lovegood, named for Regulus and he so would’ve been her godfather if he’d lived.
I had previously taken Eva Green as Severus Snape's genderbent face claim but now that people have started seeing more as as Eileen Snape or Walburga Black (though the latter's audience doesn't come worth mentioning) I had been searching for quite some time for someone else.
And looks like I've found it.
Sevogia Amil, she is a model and poetess known for her darker and femme-orientated poems, as well as her stunning and mysterious looks
Whattdya guys think?
She is perfect for how I see Snape as a woman. I'de have casted a more masculine version of her as Severus had he existed. XD
