Harry Potter AU: Salazar Slytherin 

It’s speculated that during the Founder’s era there were witch hunts for any and all magical beings and that might have spurred Salazar Slytherin to fear and hate muggles, and not want them in Hogwarts at all. 

What if this fear and hatred of muggles spurred something else in Slytherin? What if instead of excluding Muggle Born Witches and Wizards, he actually wanted to protect them from the witch hunts. 

Imagine Salazar Slytherin going out into the world searching for the Muggle Born Children, stealing them from their homes, and taking them to Hogwarts to be safe. Thinking that all magic is sacred, and that it was what was best to protect these children from being prosecuted, burned, drowned or stoned. 

Salazar Slytherin, not blood purity, but Blood Protection.

Headcanon: Like Salazar Slytherin, each founder had a hidden chamber. Godric Gryffindor made a training room full of magical weapons, only to be opened by a true Gryffindor. Rowena Ravenclaw made a library full of every book ever written, muggle and magical, updating every day, only to be opened by those who trukly crave knowledge. Helga Hufflepuff made a simple room, made to cater to the needs of anyone who needed it. To this day, it is known as the Room of Requirement.

OH I LOVE THIS SO MUCH YES THE ROOM IS SUCH A HELGA THING OMG

I’ll take you, she thinks. I’ll take you. That little child with the fearful brow and the trembling fingers; the child that wants to smile and laugh and learn and play; that child that can prank like the best of them and the child that will scheme for something just out of reach and the child who wants silence and peace and the child who wants the answers; I’ll take you.
I’ll take you and I’ll mold you and I’ll tell you never to abandon each other. The smart ones will teach the foolish and the clever will mold the naïve; the impetuous will inspire joy in the shy, and the naïve will teach faith to the broken. (It won’t be like this, all anger and resentment and uncertain futures and fear and standards to live up to).
They can be children, all of them, she thinks. They can learn the magic that is theirs, the magic that turns blood into fury and joy into life. I will take you, she promises. You can be safe here.

ooohh this should be interesting, thanks babe.

  • He grew up in marshlands and so he was comfortable around water. This was one of the reasons he advocated for a castle location near a lake. 
  • The marshes he frequented as a child were full of water snakes, and he could speak in Parseltongue before he could speak in English (a fact his parents were quite proud of). It was rather lonely in his home, so the snakes were his best friends. 
  • Part of the reason he mistrusted Muggleborns was because during the 10th Century (when he was born), the violent Muggles known as Vikings were constantly waging wars and take-overs. His father had always ranted on about how if Muggleborns were to tell their secret to Muggles, then they could have an uprising against them. He also knew that Muggles also had a history of condemning people they believed to be capable of magic. 
  • He met Godric during his teenage years, and they became best friends very quickly. They both strove for greatness and the betterment of the Wizarding World. They argued a lot during their discussions, but their passionate minds were mostly in sync.
  • Occasionally their fights would lead to heated snogging/groping, but nothing ever came of it, and they never spoke about it.
  • It was when Godric and Salazar hung out with Rowena, the daughter of a family friend, that they first came up with the idea of a Wizarding school. 
  • The first time Rowena brought her friend Helga over to discuss the idea of the school, Salazar was immediately drawn to her. She had strawberry blonde hair, laughed too much, and smiled too openly. He didn’t completely understand her overwhelming love for all people, but it was enough to make him intrigued by her. 
  • He got along with Rowena, their brilliant minds allowing for glorious debates, but she was always watching him like a hawk, as if she knew he could be dangerous to them. 
  • Salazar wanted students who were ambitious, who craved greatness like himself, and who were cunning enough to make find a way to attain it. He wanted to help them be the best they could be.
  • During the making of Hogwarts, Salazar and Helga started having frequent trysts. The first time they used Parseltongue sexually, it was an accident, but it quickly became a common occurrence. 
  • As much as they enjoyed each other, they were never exclusive. Salazar knew there was something between Helga and Rowena that was more than friendship, and he had his own occasional nights at high-society Wizarding clubs. 
  • One late night, Godric told him it was okay to love her. Salazar said he felt nothing of the sort, but his throat tightened painfully.
  • At this point, there were rifts between the founders’ beliefs and opinions. Salazar knew leaving was a possibility, so he refused to address any feelings he might have. 
  • After one intense fight with Helga about the students that left her crying and his heart breaking, he left. Godric tried to come after him, to persuade him to come back, but Salazar threw him out. 
  • He was vulnerable with his fellow founders, and he did not accept that vulnerability. He never spoke to them again. 

(I’m sorry this is so long, but as it turns out, I have a lot of opinions about Salazar Slytherin that I was unaware of)

So I just remembered this from Goblet of Fire:

“Bold Gryffindor, from wild moor,

Fair Ravenclaw, from glen,

Sweet Hufflepuff, from valley broad,

Shrewd Slytherin, from fen.”

I reckon this means that the founders are from England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland respectively, and so they are literally bringing wizards and witches from all over Great Britain. Also, their colours are the colours associated with each country; red for England, blue for Scotland, yellow for Wales and green for Ireland.

I love this world so so much.

History of magic meme | [½] Founders

Helga Hufflepuff was one of the four founders of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. She was a friend of Rowena Ravenclaw. Hufflepuff helped to build the school and admitted students into her House that were loyal, fair, and unafraid of hard work. While the other founders took students based on either ambition, bravery, or intelligence, Helga Hufflepuff took the rest, treating them all equally and teaching them all she knew. She brought people from different backgrounds together to help in the building of the school and was known for her charming ways.

Helga Hufflepuff had a gift for food-related Charms, and her recipes are still used as the basis for many Hogwarts feasts. Helga Hufflepuff also arranged for the house-elf contingent to work in the kitchens, giving them somewhere safe to work, where they would not be mistreated or abused.
