This is a Voldemort!Snape crackfic I wrote for
allara, who gave a v. v. creative answer to my Question #1:
What’s the significance of boggarts, vampires, werewolves, dementors and banshees in relation to canon!Snape, fanon!Snape, and/or the Snape in this chapter? allara wrote: Three out of the five (vampires, werewolves, dementors) can turn normal human beings to their species. Since that's the majority, I'm going to guess that the other two creatures have the same ability. I'm not sure how else the creatures would have offspring, so I'll build on that assumption and say that your Snape will be affected by that, perhaps by (I'm guessing) Lucius "turning" him to Voldemort. Or perhaps canon!Snape is a "turned creature", infected by the Dark mark that he bears. A connection between fanon!Snape and "turned creatures" is that there is no protection or cure from being turned, like there is no protection from a badly written Snape =P
So here’s the Voldemort!Snape crackfic. Warning: potential subtext for Lucius/Severus, Lucius/Narcissa (d-uh, canon anyone?), Remus/Sirius, Peter/James. I always write slash!crackfics for some reason…

My drawing stayed in the bottom of the trunk-a memory of beauty, blood and broken china. I never showed it to anyone, until the day I met a boy with hair so fair it rivalled Karma’s scales.
Cold silvery grey eyes - not blue, not blue - flickered as what first appeared to be a hat revealed the erumpent in its bowel. He looked up, sitting in the middle of the Slytherin common room. Arching an eyebrow, he said pleasantly, “A Muggle snake, Severus? I myself prefer basilisks, don’t you?” From that day onward, Lucius takes Severus under his wings. For Lucius has recognized Severus’ Magical Artistic Powers™, something that is almost as rare as the gift of Parseltongue.
Lucius: *stands imposingly* "Slytherins, I present you with this great magical art!"
Slytherins: *look at drawing of erumpent in boa* “Ooohh…”
Lucius: “This was drawn by none other than our Severus Snape. He manifested his Magical Artistic Powers™ when he was barely six years old.”
Slytherins: *look at Severus appreciatively*
Severus: *hides behind his greasy hair*
Lucius: Now, for a limited time only, Severus has graciously offered to share his Magical Artistic Powers™ to draw Slytherin tattoos for all of us.
Lucius: *bare his inner arm to show a snake tattoo flickering its tongue*
Slytherins: *salivates at the sight of Lucius’ skin* “We want one too!”
Severus: *whips out a quill and bottles of colored ink*
“Please form a line in front of me.”
Lucius: *smirks* They’re all my slaves now! Slaves! Nobody suspects that Severus has administered poison in those inks.
Lucius: *notices Narcissa* “Narcissa dear, why aren’t you in line?”
Narcissa: *sashays over* “Oh I don’t know Lucius. Perhaps because I know you and your evil cunning ways?”
Lucius: *smiles magnanimously* Definitely the woman I’m going to marry. Her hair is almost Malfoy blond. Together, we will give birth to perfection! *evil cackle*

Soon, Severus’ Magical Artistic Powers™ become the hottest thing at Hogwarts. Even though Severus would only draw snake tattoos, some Ravenclaws and many Hufflepuffs queue to get a tattoo.
Remus: *looks pensively at Severus* “Too bad he only draws snakes. I would like a wolf Gryffindor lion tattoo.”
Sirius: *growls at Severus* “Don’t get a tattoo! It will mar your beautiful skin You don’t know where that quill has been in!”
Remus: *smiles wolvishly angelically at Sirius*
Sirius: *blushes* “Arthur has this awesome motorbike. Do you want to come and see?”
Remus: *grins* “Lead the way.”
Sirius and Remus: EXEUNT holding hands as fast friends.

Lucius: “Ah. What do we have here? A Gryffindor?”
Peter: *cowers* “Umm…I would like a tattoo too, please.”
Lucius: “One of that Potter brat’s friends. How interesting…”
Peter: *shuffles feet*
Lucius: “Well, we wouldn’t want to exclude any Gryffindor. Draw him a tattoo, Severus. Using the ah…special ink.”
Severus: *whips out a bottle of colored ink which has been doctored with a mind-altering substance*
Lucius: *smiles with benediction* “Run along now, you little mousy Gryffindor.”
Peter: EXEUNT, looking for James.
Lucius: *looks at Severus in the eye* “The world is now mine ours, Severus.”
Severus: *blinded by Lucius’ Malfoy blond hair and silvery grey eyes* “Err…yes. Whatever you say master, I mean...Malfoy.”
Lucius: *smiles Malfoy’s ‘innocent’ smile™* “Do call me Lucius, Severus. As co-rulers of the world, we should be on first-name basis, don’t you think? Now, about that basilisk…”
