My first contribution to the Snolidays2021, and also my first fanfiction! I won’t lie, this didn’t go at all in the direction that i meant for it to, but yeah, I’m putting it out in the world.
This is set in 1996 and features Severus Snape and Remus Lupin, with references to Sirius Black and past wolfstar. Sirius doesn’t exactly come off well.
Snapril - Week 4: Nature - Ingredients and Blossoming
A big thank you to @reinekefoxart, who is incredibly well-versed in flowers. She helped me pick out which flowers would suit his character.
Bindweed: Is associated with perseverance and resiliency. Bindweed can survive in harsh environmental conditions. It is also a symbol of bondage - the bindweed winds and attaches itself to other plants, which can damage and suffocate their growth.
Fraxinella (Dictamnus): Also known as ‘burning bush’ because they are phototoxic - when hit by light, the flowers emit a vapour that can be ignited. Despite being very tricky to handle, fraxinella is utilised for medicinal purposes.
Achillea (Yarrow): Is named after Achilles, who used this flower to treat fallen soldiers during the Trojan war. Thus, the flower is a symbol of well-being and healing. It is also a symbol of enduring love. Achillea represents people who are deeply in love and are willing to do anything for their love.
Daisy: They symbolise new beginnings and rebirth, in addition to love, beauty, purity, and hope.
Join in on the fun! And while we’re at it, please also join @snapecelebration’s general Snapril Event 2022 if you haven’t already. And if you haven’t already I am shocked.
