Hi music anon again 🤗

I know what you mean about never knowing what music Snape listens to. It's sort of tough, isn't it?

I feel like the instinct is for classical and I don't doubt that he enjoys classical music, but I also think his Muggle upbringing would surely play a role in his music taste no matter how much he rightfully despised his father and his crappy childhood in general.

Now this may way be controversial, but I sort of headcanon teenage Snape secretly listening to Fleetwood Mac or T-rex or The Stones with black painted finger nails and cigarette in hand and sort of think he probably never stopped? I mean the painted nails probably didn't hang around after he started teaching (or maybe he did and he just used a glamour though that might interfere with his potions lol) but I could still easily see Harriet's Snape listening to You can go your own way or Paint it black in his chambers when he thinks hes mostly certain he has a few private minutes to himself...of course, I now I have the image of Snape listening to angry girl indie music in my head i dont think that's leaving any time soon 😄

it certainly is rough! also it's very hard not to give him our own music taste in some way (that is, the taste of the person headcanoning about it), which is only natural, both because we like our own taste and because we interpret our blorbos through some prism of self.

also music, more than probably any other art form, seems to get tied up with this performance evaluation of our personal coolness. there can be a lot of "i don't listen to that" about music, and everyone shows off their spotify wrapped at the end of the year (some people apparently... put cooler songs on mute and play them to jazz up their list?? is that real????) so, going off what you said about his Muggle upbringing, and music as a form of teenage rebellion, this complicates the Snape Playlist because one would imagine him hearing Muggle music at home and, whether he liked it or not, rejecting it because it's Muggle. or maybe embracing it, at least on holiday, because his dad hates it and he hates his dad. or! maybe some of it reminds him of lily, so it likes it for that reason, at least for a while. (secret fourth option: i’m way overthinking it!)

the another complication is that we don't know what the heck kind of music wizards listen to. we only know the Weird Sisters, which is rock. are they the wizard Iron Maiden or Nirvana? or maybe Vivaldi was a wizard or something. then young, desperately-trying-to-not-be-too-Muggle Snape could listen to these safely.

but in the end, i just wonder if... snape wouldn't listen to anything? i wonder if the reason it's so hard to nail down something for him to listen to is because i can't imagine him actually... doing something for simple enjoyment? he's so uptight in this way and self hating in that way... the result of asking myself "what would snape enjoy" is really the answer "nothing!" he won't let himself. he can read depressing books and dry potions journals but for music you just have to relax and enjoy the noises and i just... have a hard time picturing him doing it. he can't relax. he can't enjoy himself. he can't appreciate a nice tune. not yet.

this tangled web of questions is the answer i've come up with for myself, so far :)

Rags to Werewolves Challenge: Week One

I compromised on the 'zero skills' thing that I absolutely hate for Young Adults by giving Min Jun low-moderate skills in CHARISMA, COOKING, FITNESS and PARENTING - basically skills that won't help him make money (so no singing or instrumental skills) - and added some reward traits from the Parenthood pack. Only you can't add them to adults, even with cheats, so I made him a teenager for a hot minute then aged him up.

So what he started with was some leftover birthday cake, a guitar and a knitting basket (both of which he has zero skill in), a few camping supplies and Zero Simoleons in his pocket.

(For the curious, my headcanon for this Sim is that he comes from a moderately well-off family, had a happy homelife but with high expectations. So when he found himself pickpocketed on a globetrotting holiday, he knew that his parents would help him out but was too embarrassed/proud to clue them in about his Simoleon-challenged state. Plus life always seems to work out, right?)

ᴀʙᴏᴜᴛ ᴍᴇ ɪɴ ᴛʜɪꜱ ᴅʀ: my name is tara smith, but i'm known as 'azrael'. in 2016 with my friends, kitty and jj formed a band we called 'utopia' and we started on youtube and soundcloud by doing covers, and when we got more popular, we made our first original song. it was called "SOS" (yup it's this one from ABBA but let's pretend yk) and it went viral on soundcloud and very popular on youtube. we got recognision, and it opened the door to music industry.

- pandora loves jazmin bean (her favorite song is super slaughter), melanie martinez (her favorite song is detention), and a lot of alt pop but also loves rock and ethereal wave music

- marlene loves riot grrrl and femme punk music (she likes the movement too but not as much bc it wasn’t very intersectional) and got dorcas really into it when they first started dating

- dorcas thinks that the guys from pure hell (idk their names) are really gender envy

- emmeline loves mommy long legs (they’re a band) and destroy boys

- james loves fleetwood mac and jaco pastorious

remus lupin headcanons because i love him very dearly <3

  • has lots of moles and freckles that sirius likes making constellations out of
  • seems really quiet and like a good boy because he's always got his nose buried in a book but he's actually the mastermind behind all pranks and he's pretty much an evil genius
  • loves tomatoes and olives, hates celery
  • gets along really well with his mam, they're pretty much besties and they tell each other everything
  • whenever someone asks him to pronounce the longest name of a place in wales (llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch) he just cusses at them and they think that's what he said. it's become an on-running joke between the welsh students to say the same thing to everyone non-welsh asking and they never knew that the name was not what they were saying
  • has sharper canines than most people and so he's insecure about his smile so the first time he laughed and they flashed out sirius may or may have not fallen in love (courtesy to scar for this genius hc)
  • autistic
  • prefers weed to actual cigarettes, it helps with his pain and it gets his mind off things
  • rubs his hands together when he's excited
  • has really bad handwriting. he's the kind of person that has such ugly handwriting that only he understands. he only tries making his handwriting neater on valentine's cards, letters to important people, and stuff he sends to his mum (and the invitations to james and lily's funeral)
  • knows how to play the ukulele and the guitar (he was taught by hope)
  • his favorite bands are simon & garfunkel, t.rex, and fleetwood mac
  • speaking of music, his favorite song from bowie is the prettiest star (i wonder why)
  • hates kids, especially babies, but is really good with them. he (slowly) started loving kids when james and lily had hari (james promised him that he would be the godfather to their next kid. it never happened)
  • his humor consists of dad, sarcastic and self-deprecating jokes and dark humor (sirius share the last three and james is concerned by some of the jokes they make. peter thinks they're funny)

i like ranting about my own works, so have a bunch of little details about the universe of how to not die young, basically just some small little canon things i like (some may be written & some i might not get to adding,) (psa, some are silly & happy and some are very much not,) (another psa, there is no major spoilers in these,)

middle school James had a baby mustache that he insisted he'd grow out but he eventually shaved it off because he hated the sensory of it

Sirius and Mary used to date, but they split up when they both realized how gay they are (now theyre just very good friends)

Lily and Remus met because Lily used to be the librarian's assistant and he kept hiding in there, (he also had a shit ton of overdue books)

Remus' mom has a degree in english literature, but right now she works for tech support at an old person's home

Remus has never gone trick or treating

Regulus was a biter as a child, Sirius has a scar to prove it

Marlene tries really hard to impress Dorcas but fucks it up everytime by either tripping over her own feet or saying the wrong thing, (Dorcas thinks its cute)

Barty has eaten a bar of soap before

Evan knows Monty because he works as the secretary at his doctors office,

Barty has never met any of his grandparents because his parents never bothered introducing him,

Remus can handle any other kind of 'after fight reactions' besides the silent treatment/being ignored, it makes him severely anxious (*cough* trauma *cough*)

Barty has never watched spongebob,

alternatively, Evan was a spongebob lover as a child

Pandora once tried to see how many crayons she could stick up Evan's nose while he was sleeping, he didn't wake for like twenty minutes, the answer is 17

James absolutely loves children

Dorcas and Barty have spa nights

Regulus is observant as fuck, and knows things before people tells him all the time, it freaks people out

Regulus steals things from Sirius constantly because it's funny,

Barty almost died as a kid because he choked on a coin (he was 13)

Remus is a shit chef, he only knows boxed mac and cheese and ramen

Sirius fucking loves baking,

all of the marauders signed Sirius' arm cast with their nicknames,

James has dyslexia

and Remus has dyscalculia (hes me fr)

Remus is very expressive, like you always know what he's thinking,

Regulus burned one of his bras in a trash can after Sirius let him smoke one time

Peter ate an entire block of cheese on a dare

Mary practices her makeup on Peter

Sybil does palm readings for Peter, he's a very supportive bf

Remus bites Sirius a lot

Marlene punched a teacher in the face on accident before,

Minnie & Poppy are married <3

Barty only has Remus' number to send him the most atrocious takes he has at like three in the morning - Remus leaves him on read frequently

Sybil and Pandora are fairly good friends

Pandora and Evan had a Wii U as kids and Evan was the fucking best at Wii bowling, you have no idea, (he has his own technique, he calls it 'the Evan Method')

Pandora likes eating pomegranates and then going up to Evan and smiling at him with red stained teeth, he screams like a little girl everytime

James has always wanted a little sibling

James' parents don't know he has anxiety problems because he just stuffs it down so much

Sirius eats dandelions, for some fucking reason, he's just weird

Regulus used to have dinner alone some nights because he'd skip dinner with the family to avoid the constant loudness and bickering, sometimes he'd make something for himself, sometimes Kreacher would make something for him and sit with him

Regulus tells Sirius whenever his boobs hurt because it makes Sirius gag

James and Remus are the ultimate people pleasers

anyways, thats all, maybe ill make more, i have sm brainrot for this fic, theyre all my children
