Everything you can imagine is real.

I started making this video months ago. The process almost drove me crazy, so I'm glad I finally got this thing done. Why, oh why, do I have to be such a perfectionist?



Pairing: Snape/Lily
Rating: PG-13
Song: Goodbye My Lover by James Blunt
Summary: Snape and Lily were lovers during their years at Hogwarts, but they broke up after he called her a mudblood. After Lily's death, all Snape has left is his memories.

Notes: The sepia clips are memories from their Hogwarts years, while the other ones are more recent memories.

Cast and clips:

Snape: Alan Rickman (from the movies "Perfume" and "Dark Harbor")
Lily: Nicole Kidman (from the movie "Practical Magic")
James: Frank Whaley (from the movie "Swing Kids")
Young Snape: Ben Whishaw (from the movie "Perfume")
Young Lily: Karoline Herfurth & Rachel Hurd-Wood (from the movie "Perfume")
+ Harry Potter movies, naturally

Sorry for all the illogical things. For instance, my teen Snape doesn't have long hair. Who wears the same hairstyle their whole life anyway?
