To quote Darrin
-- I don't consider saving someone's life a license to treat them
like crap.
Yeah, I agree with you there. Snape is a full-grown adult in a
position of authority and should therefore, exercise his will justly.
But who are we kidding here? It is a sign to JKR's understanding of
human nature that things are not always the way the should be.
Snape shouldn't unfairly dock points from Harry and anyone not in his
house. Snape shouldn't have transferred his hate to James to Harry
because it seems he did that from their first meeting. Snape should
get over the Prank (even though it could have killed him) and his
worst memory because he is older and it would just be best for him to
forgive (and let wounds heal). Maybe it's part of an appearance to
protect his true identity. I don't know.
But Snape did try to protect Harry with that counter-curse in SS and
later he does volunteer to become referee just to make sure Harry is
ok. Wow. As much as you hate Snape (and as much as Snape hates
Harry), that is saying something. There's bond there since he did TRY
to save Harry's life although Snape might regret it now (hehe, but
only the surface level).
Hmm, did I go off tangent? Probably.
