Now that it's August, I turn 33 in three weeks. When did that happen? O.o
Here, have some art recs. All are worksafe. I'm going to fall back on just links because man I cannot be arsed to manually construct the dA links with thumbnails and all right now.
Except this one. Because this one is majestic. I don't know why punky/gothy/metal/emo/simply-inexplicably-rocking-out-on-the-bass Severus pushes my buttons so dang hard but IT SURE DOES.

someoldcat. There is also a hilarious ficlet to go with it!
oh okay I lied. that's this:
Some other straight-up Snape art:
Half Blood Prince by ithelda
Spy by Natalliel
Snape. by joeyv7
Severus/Lily:
Severus and Lily by katikut (OMG SO CUTE)
The Reason by Cissy-88

And a couple of things spotted on tumblr (with the usual grumbles about how it means I often cannot really track back art to an originator):
(thanks to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
irielle for pointing out the source on this one: http://www.etsy.com/shop/MarsupialMenagerie . Seems like they don't have any of this particular one in right now or I would link to it directly.)
p.s. Call him Severus already, wouldja? If you're going to be using other people's first names? Especially in this context, otherwise it makes him seem like something very "other" than her and not also a human being who might have deserved to be loved back. I dunno, I am probably being weird here. I mean, I understand if someone has a considered personal reason to prefer sticking to his surname (like![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
logospilgrim) but in most cases I find his naked surname (as opposed to the respectful "Professor Snape") distancing, unsatisfying, saddening somehow. (Maybe it's just that I can't grok how one would not prefer to wrap one's tongue round the much nicer syllables of "Severus", not that "Snape" isn't fun to play with in some other ways.)

I have never liked the smush name "Snily", but saying Severus/Lily would be far too long here.
