Severus Snape *spoilers*

[Sala]

We all had our theories about Snape. He was good, he was evil. He would sacrifice himself for Harry's life. In the end though, he was killed simply for possession of a wand and, boy, did Voldemort get that one wrong!

I found the reasons behind Severus's demise very interesting (Merlin's pants, I sound like a sad case!). Up until the end, Voldemort never suspected that Snape was a traitor. I think Voldemort still believed that Snape was faithful to him. In the end, he had to dispose of Snape to forward his own cause, another senseless and pointless death but a step up for the Dark Lord.

Its been reported that JKR howled with tears when she wrote one chapter and I think the chapter containing the death of Snape was the one.

"Look at me." The importance of Lily's eyes is finally revealed. And he could imagine, as he lay dying that he was looking into her eyes for the final time. Awwwww......

Blimey mate, that was terrible. I don't understand why he called her a mudblood if he loved her, all she did was defend him. But still, Sev was good in the end...

I thought that was EXTREMLY adorable that Snape loved Lily! and i like was someone said about Snape looking in harry's eyes and seeing Lily for the last time!!

[The Orders Auror]

I couldnt beleive all my theories on SS were right. I have ALWAYS been a Snape and Lily fan. I always thought that was the main reason for him hating Harry, and yet always looked after him.

I actually cried when Snape took the peice of paper with Lily's signature on it. xxx :_(

[Quidditch Queen]

I was actually kind of speechless. I was absolutely convinced that Snape was a bad guy!! I thought it was sweet how he was in love with Lily, but Lily made the right choice in ending their friendship. I don't know, even though I was convinced that he was bad, I was almost relieved that he was good. I applaud his acting skills (and his Occlumens skills...)!

I thought it was sweet, albeit surprising that Harry named his son Albus Severus!

Omg i couldnt believe it wen he just dropped dea its like
hey i can help you
and then
I SHALL KILL YOU FOR ASING MWUHAHAHAHA
kinda thing

I was actually crying when Snape died. I've never been a big fan of Snape (I Hate Severus Snape, anyone?), but I couldn't help it. I'm glad he turned out to be good, though. I'd always guessed that he had a thing for Lily, but I also thought he had hated her after she'd chosen James. I'm happy I was wrong. =)

Oh when I had looked at the table of contents and saw the chapter about the Prince's Tale, I knew we were going to find out about Snape loving Lily. I have always been a firm believer in that. He loved Lily you could see it in the books but his anger made us not want to see it. I have always liked Snape but hated him for being so mean to Harry. When I read the Epilogue and Harry called his son Albus Severus I cried. I couldn't help it. When Snape died I cried. I am crying now as I am typing this.

When Harry saw Snapes memories and saw that Snape had taken the paper and picture of Lily I cried then. He is by far one of the greatest characters in that book.

[snuffles]

i seriously never expected that snape would be in love with lily. in all the books before the DH it never pointed to a snape/lily thing. the whole time while reading the princes tale im thinking "omg wat the hell is going on?!?!".

i always said that snape was really good and that DD and snape planned the whole killing thing (even though i still hate him). i wasnt really suprised about that at all. signs all over the place pointed to that.

and it was soo cute that whole "look at me thing". he wanted lilys eyes to be that last thing he ever saw.

[nutz4hpotter6]

See I think we all felt Snape hated Harry because he always compared him to James. He never really said anything about him being like Lily. He never said anything to Harry about his mother. Nothing good or bad. That is what made me feel that Snape loved Lily. If also hurt Snape to look at Harry's eyes because when he looked at them he was looking at Lily and that scared him. Knowing that he had caused Voldemort to go after her and her son.

[Leigh]

What confused me about this was... did he actually ever really care for Harry or was it just because it was Lily's son. I mean, it obviously has to do with him being Lily's son, but did Snape actually hate Harry? Confusing question, I know.

[Quidditch Queen]

It was a love/hate relationship, I think. He hated Harry for being James' son but cared about him because he was Lily's son.

Maybe we should make an "I Guess Severus Snape Isn't Such a Bad Guy" club. (IGSSISBG! lol!)

[nutz4hpotter6]

Nice club name. I think you are right QQ. He hated Harry cause I think he felt that if he had never called Lily mudblood that Harry could have been his son with Lily but yet cared for him because he was Lily's son. I think we are just making it more confusing then it really is. You can love and hate someone at the same time. I have done it. There are times when I hate my husband but I still love him.

[Mike Black]

I think it was nice that Snape liked Lily, but I noticed that he did make way to many mistakes... especially with his choice of words!

[nutz4hpotter6]

Choice of words.... like what? In this book or in all the books? Sorry just not sure that I understand what you are trying to say.
