snapetober 2022 - hidden injury
—
“is he dead?”
“for merlin’s sake…draco! you mustn’t touch him! he might be cursed!”
“professor!”
“first diggory, then potter, and now professor snape—!”
“parkinson, stop crying this instant, you’ll bring the bloody baron round!”
“he’s breathing, isn’t he? oh circe, oh merlin, mordred, and morgana…”
“it must be some sort of hidden injury…i saw him stumbling on the way back from the forest.…”
“you don’t think it’s—mummy wrote me yesterday that…you know…it was tonight.”
“you mean…”
“but why would the Dark Lord want to hurt him? he’s one of us! it doesn’t make sense!”
“pansy, you great bloody cow, keep your voice down!”
“but he…if the Dark Lord came back like potter said…and i know my parents had written about…well. something hinting at it. why would he…why would he hurt professor snape? what about…what about our parents?”
“…”
“…you lot, shut it. i’m trying to listen to professor snape’s breathing.”
“it’s the cruciatus, i’m sure of it. see how he’s shaking?”
“there’s no cure for the cruciatus!”
“i know, nott, shut up. listen, we’ll bring him to his office to lie down properly, and wexler and i will keep an eye on him until the breakfast bell. if it gets worse, i’ll send for pomfrey.”
“leggy, you couldn’t!”
“she’s a slytherin! of all people she’d be the most help, and she can keep our secrets far better than the old coot of a headmaster…here, malfoy, give the professor some room, will you? wipe his face…good man.”
“i could have sent for the elves at the manor…to help…but…”
“no, if the Dark Lord did this…it’s not safe. just make sure the professor’s warm. we’ll move him in a bit.”
“leggy, you really think…do you think…”
“shut it. never breathe a word of it outside of this room, any of you, you hear? for now, we will watch and listen. if the Dark Lord is back, and is responsible for this…one thing’s for sure…we take care of our own, understand? within hogwarts.”
“including professor snape.”
“especially professor snape.”
“enough now, leggy. zabini, shuffle over here and give us a hand. steady the professor while i levitate him. malfoy, scoot over. who was the swot that keeps breaking the wards on the professor’s office?”
“i did. just yesterday. it was pretty difficult that time. the professor was pleased, i think.”
“walk ahead of us and get it ready. mind your wand movements, hear?”
“i’m not a bloody first year, wexler. i heard you spent a month in the infirmary when you first tried to break the wards.”
“better you than me. now get a move on. i don’t want to use too much magic on the professor while he’s still…unwell.”
“malf—you aren’t coming to stay up with us. you’re a bloody fourth year. the professor will have our heads!”
“i don’t care, i’m coming. he’s my godfather. he wouldn’t dare fail me in potions for this.”
“no but he’ll give you detention for skipping curfew intentionally. you lot should have been in bed hours ago.”
“just walk, leggy, so we can set the professor down and let him rest. he can yell at me when he wakes…and i hope it’ll be soon.”
“on your own head be it— oh, merlin. greengrass you did not just melt his office door.”
“we’ll you did tell me to get it open.”
“the rest of you lot get back to bed before i assign you all detention with trelawney and hagrid. we’ll let you know how the professor is later. and none of you better be late for breakfast because of this or i’m assigning you all additional latin translations.”

"why are you as a human being that tall" sums it up pretty well yeah ! like how dare u be tall !!!!
oh dude you have no idea i was deep in undertale brain rot for like a good week in the year of our lord 2022 and i was like "?????? okay ??????? well at least its something new from the usually scheduled brain rot??????" also knowing you're working on a merlin/sandman crossover piece might be the thing that finally tips me over the edge to watch sandman ngl
-vrvr anon
i mean fair enough, what works, works! its always good to have some unscheduled brain rot to freshen up the place (read: your brain) a bit. like refurbishing!
👀👀👀. im not even gonna lie right now my brain is doing the 'one of us. one of us. one of us' thing. come to the dark side, we have copious amounts of gay fanfiction and really cool art, or whatever. it you ever DO venture over, i already have two smaller pieces in the same crossover (2.4k and 8k respectively) posted (this next one is probably gonna end up being between 15 and 20k because this is like. the halfway mark.).
