By reading certain posts about the fifth man in Godric's Hollow, and mostly the theory that Snape could have been there, made me go over all the questions and mysteries Snape is commanding, but for the first time, I came up with a theory which could fit exactly to the whole mysteries. This has probably been brought up before, so don't AK me for it, but correct my dilettantic ramblings.
< Ducking from rotten vegetables : ) >
Questions :
1. What is Snape excelling in ?
2. What made Snape betray Voldemort ?
3. Why is his hair greasy and why doesn't he wash his teeth ?
4. What makes Dumbledore trust Snape ?
5. Why does Snape immediately hack on Harry's celebrity ?
Rambling ahead :
1. Snape might be the best potions master alive in the WW. He can brew one of the most tricky potions the Wolfsbanepotion. He's not especially good in teaching, IMHO he is more of a research type. His ability with potions might also be the reason why such a young man was so high in the DE ranks. As we saw in GoF, it's a potion which brings Voldemort back to life. The elixir of live gained from the Philosopher Stone is also a potion. This brings me to assuming that potions are important in Voldemort's quest for immortality. Snape must have been researching to find an equivalently powerful potion replacing the elixir of life.
2. There must have been an important event that made him change his mind. I don't want to put out theories , build new ships or take a ticket for any of the existing ships. So please insert your own theory here LOL.
I assume that he was the spy who tipped Dumbledore that Voldemort wanted to kill the Potters.
3. Snape has made a discovery, not elixir of live, but a potion that can protect you against AK. I presume it as an unguent you have to put on the skin, like moisturing cream. The problem with it was that he couldn't produce enough of it to protect all the Potters. The Potters decided to use it on Harry to save him at least.
I think we know 2 of the major ingredients for the potion already <Giggles , laughs herself silly>:
a. greasy black hair
b. a bit of very filthy used dental floss
4. Dumbledore knows that it was Snape and Snape alone who saved Harry. He demands Snape to keep the potion quiet, he doesn't want anyone to know it could be made. In the same thoughts he urges Snape to stop to much grooming, so that there would always be enough ingredients on hand <g>.
5. Harry gets all the credits for Snape's work ...
Snape feels bad, he just want's a good shower all the time. He sees that everybody is fussing about Harry and no one is paying attention to him ...
Poor old scruffy scientist, getting bitter and all.
Ooooooh sorry I'm hurt -conforting too much on our ever so loved snappy Snape. ; P
