idr if percy ever talked about snape in the books, but snape is absolutely percy’s favorite teacher and no one - including snape himself - can understand why
ron: why do you even LIKE snape, he’s such a DICK percy
percy: do you know how much that man has revolutionized the potions field? do you know how much i’ve learned under him? he’s a genius and he’s the reason i’m going to get an o on my potions newt, who cares if he’s a dick.
snape, after two hours: mr. weasley, it’s past curfew. my office hours ended one and a half hours ago. you have to leave now.
percy weasley, on two hours of sleep and eight cups of coffee: sir i just have one more question–
I love it, I am dying over here.
a harry potter au where potions is taught by gordon ramsay
neville: *messes up his potion*
gordon ramsay: *holds neville between two slices of bread* what are you
neville: an idiot sandwich
no no no!
Imagine that this is Gordon Ramsay a la Masterchef Junior
Neville: *messes up the potion, realizes it, starts crying quietly*
GR: What’s going on?
Neville: *explains how he messed up*
GR: Oh gosh okay…we can fix this, don’t cry, see, it’s fine now? Just be more careful when you’re adding the Newt’s eyes, all right? Drop them in gently. There we go. No more tears.
Neville: *giggles wetly, wiping eyes*
Yes, he only screams when he’s dealing with people that claim to know what they’re doing and clearly dont, when he’s teaching he’s very kind and patient because they’re still learning.
He’d probably do the bread thing to Malfoy.
nononononono. I get that Malfoy is a bit of a twat, but he’s still a kid. It’d be the teachers fucking up that he’d have trouble with.
Ramsay: All you had to do was treat it with a fucking Beozar!
Slughorn: It was a stressfu-
Ramsay: How long have you been teaching potions?!
or
Ramsay: So you’re going to raise this boy SPECIFICALLY so he can die as part of your twisted little scheme?
Dumbledore: It’s for the greater good, professor.
Ramsay: The greater fucking good?! *holds two slices of bread either side of dumbledoor’s face* What are you?
Dumbledore: Am I, per chance, an idiot sandwich?
Ramsay: Yes, you fucking are.
Caught in a rather good romance
It sounds like I’m playing a video game and someone is trying to sell me potions. :D
…that is exactly what it sounds like

Psychology textbook diagrams never cease to amaze me
ok y'all this isn't a psych textbook gaslighting you into thinking it's normal and ok for your boss to yell at you, it's specifically about understanding that other people's treatment of you is usually more about them than you.
If your boss is pissy with you, it's absolutely more healthy to understand that behavior as a reflection of his mental state rather than of your worth as an employee.
It's not a psych textbook's job to advise you how to improve your workplace or say what is/isn't acceptable treatment by a boss. It's an example of detaching your own self-worth from how other people treat you.
^^THIS!
In fact, if you let yourself think of other people's treatment as a reflection on YOU more than it is on THEM, it can prevent you from getting things done.
Or, in other words,
ok, im rb'ing this again because this actually helped me finally be able to take advantage of cognitive restructuring in a way i've struggled to do for a long time. Ive been able to get to the my boss was having a bad day part, but i've always struggled to use that mental change to do something that would improve the situation. but because of this diagram, i THINK ive got it figured out. Here's a rough explanation of how I interperet this.
Real life example:
Boss yelling: My mom is snapping at me, calling me "disrespectful" no matter how I speak to her, and getting mad at me for having missing assignments
He was having a bad day: She's stressed due to my grandma being in the hospital
He shouldn't take it out on me: just because she's stressed doesn't mean she gets to be mean to me.
Unionize: I advocate for myself, saying that I'm not being disrespectful and that it's okay to have missing assignments because I'm doing my best
Fuck his wife: I am unapologetically proud of myself for what i manage to do in a day, especially if my mom disapproves of it or doesn't view it as productive, as my own little "fuck you" to her.
End result: no depression.
This actually works and its amazing. Thanks to the meme side of tumblr for accidentally developing a highly effective method for coping with people who treat you like shit
