Ah. I didn't say those ends had to be bad in any form, did I? True, having 
good 'ends' isn't Slytherin nature. Snape may be redeemed, but I don't think 
he'll ever change nor or do I want him to. I just can't picture a happy, 
warm, Lupinish Snape. In fact, I'd be very scared if such a transition in 
personality took place 0.0. 

I think he could still be a good person and have the natures and make the 
choices that made the Sorting Hat place him in Slytherin. Of course, I still 
haven't ruled out the possibilities of Snape having some hidden agenda(s) ^^
