<<Hello, All!

I've been lurking in the shadows of HPforGrownups for awhile now, 
and I've finally plucked up the courage to post, so please don't be 
too harsh.

I've been reading some very interesting theories as to why Snape's 
hair is so greasy, and I've come up with my own theory. I warn you 
now; I'm a bit of a Snape fan, so the post might need to be taken 
with a grain of salt. Anyway, I theorize that Snape's greasy hair 
and overall unattractive appearance (yellowish teeth, sallow skin, 
etc.)is all a front. In reality he is quite dead sexy. He has to 
*cover up* his dead sexiness because if he didn't all the female 
students would be swooning over him and never get any work done. 
Without his faux-greasiness, he'd be a constant distraction ;-) <<

 

LOL! Wait, maybe *Dumbledore* made him do that - so he doesn't distract anyone! <g>

But actually, I think Snape is dead sexy the way he is. See, it's not his appearance that matters, it's the way he 'sweeps out of the room,' his 'billowing robes,' his 'silky' and voice that is 'barely above a whisper,' - that Potions Speech in PS, finally (a pity he wastes it on first-years, who don't appreciate a bit of it). All of that is enough to make anyone fall in love. 

The only reason no one does is that he's nasty to people. See, it's possible to fall in love with a person who's nasty to people you don't know, and especially not yourself, but once he starts being mean to you or your friends, specifically, his dead sexiness just doesn't get noticed at all. 

If Snape wasn't so evil-behaving, he'd get Valentines just like Lockhart. But I don't want to see him be nice to anyone. That phrase in PS - "It was as if Snape had started giving out sweets" is always on my mind when I think about him. Wouldn't it be scary if he did that? LOL

I do have a hunch, though, that he might be nicer in OoP. The fact that he was looking at Harry with an "expression was difficult to read" means something IMO. If Harry couldn't read it, it wasn't loathing, right?

Regards,

Maria
