Dream Post #2

Warnings: Child abuse, abuse in general, head canon stuff
Effects: None

There's a young boy sitting near a dark haired woman. His clothes are too big for him and he has dark hair that looks almost greasy. He looks so much like her that there really can't be any mistake that this is his mother. And in her hands she has what looks like a slender stick that she's causing little lights to float out from him. The boy laughs as he watches them float through the air.

"They're beautiful."

"You could do this too after some training, Severus."

He looks up at her with wonder. "Do you think I could get in to the school too?"

She nods and he goes to lean against her as she makes the lights move about, floating through the air in pretty patterns. It's then that the door slams open and she gasps. Both of them turn quickly to find an angry man staring down at them.

"Didn't I tell you to put that foolish stick away?"

"But I wanted to give Severus a Christmas present..."

Suddenly a large hand has the boy by the hair and is pulling him away from his mother. Severus lets out a little pained shriek from the treatment but all the struggling does it make it worse. The woman reaches for him but soon cowers when the man begins to yell at her. It looks like he will end up striking her as well when suddenly everything in the room starts to shake. There are tears streaking down Severus' face before he lets out a scream and a book flies across the room to hit his father in the head.

Instantly the man drops him and the woman gathers the boy in her arms.

"Fine. You take that monster, Eileen. But no more of that witchcraft tonight. I won't allow it when I am trying to make this out presentable."

And with that the man left leaving the boy crying in his mother's arms. Softly, she began to whisper that yes he would get into Hogwarts. He would get into that school and become a great wizard...





Snape awakens and lifts up his wand. With a flick the Dreamberry shuts off. He refuses to let anyone see his reaction to such a memory.

[He sees you there, boy. You really need to learn to not turn the Dreamberry recording function on.]

Potter.

[ It has a mind of his own he can't help it though he does look surprised to see that Snape would have responded. ]

...

Sorry [ Is all he manages to say. Wouldn't be the first time he's seen Snape's personal childhood. ]

For what, pray tell? Last I recalled you were not a part of my childhood.

[ Well this situation is awkward, but no he wasn't really apologizing for what had happened to Snape, that'd be like Snape apologizing for what had happened to Harry...oh wait...]

I meant for seeing that.

[ Not that he had stopped watching but by then it was kind of like a train wreck, he couldn't stop. ]

I am sure that you are, Mr. Potter.

[The ice in that tone...it's colder than the snow outside.]

Don't blame me for the dreamberry showing your secrets.

[ Yup there's that familiar spark to fight the cold. ]

No. Why should anyone put the blame on you? Clearly things are never your fault.

[He's tired and irritated. Harry is now the perfect target.]

Right, just like things aren't yours is that it?

[ Yeah that kind of hit a spot, so Harry hit's right back. ]

Two very different topics. You should focus on just one.

[Bitch fight time.]

Really? I don't think they're that different.

[identity profile] initforthedoe.livejournal.com 2011-12-10 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
Can you really tell the difference?

[identity profile] sonuvasnitch.livejournal.com 2011-12-10 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
[ It was that tone. Harry's jaw set and any thoughts of common place quickly left his head. ]

Yeah, I can.

[It's as if they're back at Hogwarts in the Potions Classroom.]

I wouldn't be so certain. [Each word is pronounced carefully and slowly. As if he's speaking to an idiot.]

[Video]

[identity profile] sonuvasnitch.livejournal.com 2011-12-10 02:46 am (UTC)(link)
No. I really think I do.

[ Yup just like old times. ]

You shouldn't be so cocky, Mr. Potter.

...

[ Harry's not sure what to say to that, really he doesn't like the sound of it, but he opts for nothing instead. ]

[Snape just stares back at him for a moment, just saying a few more words before he hangs up.]

Sleep well, Mr. Potter. Stay away from unpleasant dreams.
