Me (Cassie):
I've been thinking about this a lot. Well, actually, I've been thinking
about Young!Snape crying in the corner--but this is in the same vein XP
I think this adds to my own theory. Ever since I read the passage in
Occlumency where Snape describes weak people I've wondered if he's speaking from
personal experience. An awkward outcast crying in the corner would seem like the
weak people he's so venomous towards.
