Hitomi:
You definitely have a point, and he could very well be a half-blood
(I doubt he's muggle-born, but you never know). My only thing is
Snape might have still been on that family tree, or is so distant
his family is not on it. The Notts, Goyles, Crabbes, etc., were not
on there either (that we know of, because it isn't mentioned). But
they very well could be. All I'm saying is that we have no idea
WHAT Snape is. He could be either; neither would surprise me, to be
honest. And he is definitely very Slytherin-ish :)
If any one can find canon evidence proving either point, I would
love to hear it. I've been looking, and besides what Sawsan and I
have found, I haven't seen anything definite.
Sleep or stay up well, everyone!
