Lupin discovers Snape's Real Secret

Yes, it's true. Snape likes to play the ukulele.

With many thanks to [livejournal.com profile] rook543 for taking this incomparable photo.

LOL. Is he taking requests? How about The Girl from Ipanema? :-D

[identity profile] valis2.livejournal.com 2006-07-09 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
bwahaha! Absolutely. I'm sure it's his favorite...he probably plays it all the time, in between the marking. *snort*

Thank you for finding something to put a smile on my face. :)

It's all [livejournal.com profile] rook543's fault. He snapped this pic at a local convention and sent it to me. I laughed myself silly.

Oh man, that reminds me of the awful crap I wrote with Picallo when I first came into Snape fandom - about him being a secret banjo player!

bwahaha! And, knowing you, it was most likely hilariously funny yet bittersweet.

Oh, yeah. I can just see it, now--Remus stops by Spinner's End, only to discover Severus' cherished collection of Don Ho records. Severus, of course, will have no choice but to Obliviate him.

Ah, the course of true love never did run smooth...

"Tiny bubbles..."

*guffaw*

Hmm...new cat icon, I see! But where's the empty yogurt container?

Not only does he like to play the ukelele, but he does an awesome George Formby impersonation. His rendition of "When I'm Cleaning Windows" always brings down the house at the Hogwarts staff Christmas party. And he always does it after his fifth Old Ogden's.

I would so pay to see that. No, really. *laughs like an idjit*

....good god, that has to be teh most hysterical thing I've seen all week XD XD XD

I laughed like a crazy person, omg. It warms the cockles of me heart. And the subcockle region as well.

Mwahahaha! Priceless!

Isn't it, though? I could kiss [livejournal.com profile] rook543 for taking it.

[identity profile] jollityfarm.livejournal.com 2006-07-09 09:22 am (UTC)(link)
I'm quite convinced he's a secret musician, and clearly strings are the most likely.

Not sure about the painted nails, though :D

[identity profile] valis2.livejournal.com 2006-07-09 05:06 pm (UTC)(link)
I can just see him now, playing passionately his violin in his greying underwear, running about the room, swaying from side to side as the mood strikes him...and hexing the hell out of anyone who discovers his little secret.

The nails were a bonus. *snort*

My head has exploded from an overdose of awesome. *wipes brains off the monitor*

bwahah! Isn't it priceless? *jumps about*

[identity profile] catsintheattic.livejournal.com 2006-07-09 10:40 am (UTC)(link)
OMG!

Snape! Playing the ukulele! *gasps*

This is weird... Maybe he's got a doppelgänger?

*snickers*

Isn't that awesome? Moments like this are why I love fandom so much.

ROTFL!

Thanks for that :)...

Oh, no problem! [livejournal.com profile] rook543 is just all kinds of awesome for snapping this pic.

Wonderful picture, Valis! And not only that, Lupin has also discovered that Snape paints his fingernails (unless they were discolored that badly by potions?).

[identity profile] valis2.livejournal.com 2006-07-09 05:11 pm (UTC)(link)
hee!! I noticed the fingernails, too. I'm certain that he has a story about the appearance-altering properties of batwings at the ready. ;)

[identity profile] valis2.livejournal.com 2006-07-09 05:12 pm (UTC)(link)
hee! I bet Remus is borrowing a pensieve and charging admission at this point...

[identity profile] artystone.livejournal.com 2006-07-09 05:28 pm (UTC)(link)
ROFL! Well it's better than a f'ing cello. Or harpischord. Actually, I think Snape plays the euphonium.

[identity profile] valis2.livejournal.com 2006-07-09 05:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, of course, harpsichord-playing Snape...I had forgotten about that particular fanon trait. The ukulele is rather refreshing!

[identity profile] florence-craye.livejournal.com 2006-07-10 02:53 pm (UTC)(link)
BWA HA HA HA HA!!!

I can just imagine him doing his best Ukelele Ike impersonation, complete with falsetto.

My personal fave: Clap Hands, Here Comes Charley. ;)

Isn't that great? I nearly died when I opened the file. I'm still snickering!

Awesome, just awesome!!!!

*giggles* I love that pic!
