stems from characters you seem to have paid closer attention to I’m the same way. Also when I read really exciting books I don’t pay attention to details for the first couple of times I read the books, so characters like Snape get labelled as adult with some sense of a physical description like his hair and nose because they are peculiar. By the time I got to doing the math and realized that Snape was 37 and Rickman looked a bit older than 37, I’d already seen the movies and Rickman was my Snape. I can also easily believe that being a Death Eater took a tole on Snape and he aged quicker and badly as a result.
