Or torturing him until he goes crazy like the Longbottoms.

Voldemort doesn't need punishment. He should actually be rewarded. I mean.



If it weren't for him. We wouldn't be here.

Snape: I agree whole heartedly with Laerel Greenleaf's views on it. I don't believe that Snape is evil. Snape may be Voldemort's most trusted servant, but he's not like any other Death Eater who throw caution to the wind. He has brains, and he himself, knows it. And the fact that he knows what he's doing without crawling around following Voldemort with his tail behind his legs, shows that he is capable of ANYTHING. Right now I'm still hoping that Snape will turn out to be a triple agent or something.... I've always been a fan of Snape, because I'm a fan of evil. Heck, even I love Voldemort. Sue me. And you know what? Without even either of these character, you wouldn't even HAVE a Harry Potter Series. Regardless however, Snape's a dead man walking. I mean everyone's now out to get him. Harry, Hagrid, Lupin, etc. And Voldemort's got no use of him now that he's out of Hogwarts and Dumbledore is gone. Pity...just...pity.

I was also discussing with a friend about the reason why Snape looked so angry when he went to kill Dumbledore. He had the Unbreakable Vow to protect, if not atleast Harry [I know, I know you're thinking "Pfft!"] but hear me out! Not because that it was extremely hard to kill Dumbledore but by doing this, he knew that his fate was sealed and he knew that Harry was in the room and Snape couldn't lie his way out of it. I still think Snape's going to pull a triple agent, I can feel it in my bones. From reading Chapter 2, I KNEW something was off, I could feel it.

That's that I was thinking about Snape as well. I mean, Snape has risked his life in numerous occasions, with Voldemort, with other Death Eaters and Dumbledore's the only one that recognizes it and trusts him with his life and then he is [mostly likely] ordered by Dumbledore to kill him?! That's gotta work alot of courage! And to have his arch enemy, Harry Potter, yell it coward to his face? I'd beat the stuffings out of him too! And I love the whole "Blocked again and again and again until you learn to keep your mouth shut and your mind closed, Potter!" Oi! 'Arry! What he means is that "You should've put more into what I teach you, you....you....copier!" [Readers: "*Gasp!* Oh no he did NOT!"]

Yes, yes I'm having much too fun for something as depressing as this.

Ah, thank you Lady Dark Moon.


Okay, so seeing as though Voldie is a Legilimens. I'm not even going to try and persuade myself that Voldie trusted Snape so much as to not question because we all know that that's not true. Voldie has never trusted anyone in his life. But there's always a possibility that Snape has trained while being in the OotP to get BETTER than Voldemort - to do him one step further.


Which falls back to that bloody second chapter. I'm still debating whether or not JKR gave away TOO much in that chapter. And if Snape was in fact evil, why bother writing that chapter, when the huge surprise would undo itself at the end. She could have easily slipped in the Unbreakable Vow in the chapter when Harry was eavesdropping on Snape and Malfoy. I still think JKR wrote that chapter to lead us on, so that we, the readers, will always be suspicious of Snape throughout the book. But just think about really quick here. Say Snape was evil, --- but why would Dumbledore's death be such a shock? Dumbledore was asking for a death sentence telling Harry to get Snape while a Death Eater attack was going on.

Dumbledore: Dumbledore trusts Snape SO much as to look up to Snape when he obviously was not trying to stop the Death Eaters. Yet Dumbledore still believe in him. And then Snape kills him. Isn't this just a very pathetic death for Dumbledore, being killed by an 'ex'-Death Eater who everyone had doubts about? And because of how JKR set up the storyline of the book, the second chapter, Dumbledore's trust, the set up with the Death Eater attack, doesn't add up to Snape being evil. It adds up to Snape being a pretty darn bloody good actor [oppose to what Harry thinks]. I'm pretty sure this just the tip of the iceberg with Snape.

I think from this point in the series, we should stop looking at what is said, but look at what is NOT said.
