Alla:

I know for sure what I want for Snape. Of course, I would not like 
for him to disappear from the books and I don't even want for him to 
die, although I would not mind such outcome.

I want an apology from him to Harry worded something like "Potter, 
you are not your father and I was wrong for not realising that 
earlier" No, I don't want for him to hug and kiss Harry at the end, I 
just want an apology for undeserved emotional abuse he put him 
through.

Oh, and I also want him to leave Hogwarts AT THE END of the series 
and never, ever come close to children again.

Let him go to some potions research institute or something.

I said it before -  maybe he will find cure for werewolves and this 
way he will get his wanted glory.


Now, that will be a positive outcome FOR MY TASTE. If JKR lets the 
character survive and change his attitudes at the end of the series.

If Snape stays same abusive bully at the end, I would like for Harry 
to save his life at the end and for Snape to realise that he is in 
debt of Potter all over again.

Now, I realise that would be a bit sadistic for dear Severus, but if 
he does not change his attitude towards Harry , that will be the best 
punishment for him , IMO.

That is what I want for Snape. Does it answer your question? :)

P.S. I strongly recommend for you to make an exception for the FF 
Dzeytoun mentioned. It is SO worth it.
