Potioncat:
I hate to say it, but I wouldn't be surprised if Snape does die in 
book 7.  I was reading one of the books to my 8 year old and I read 
something that made me stop and say out loud, "Oh no, Snape is going 
to die!"  My son burst into tears and I learned not to make stupid 
comments. (Until I found this group, that is.) I've been trying to 
find whatever statment made me think that, but nothing has jumped 
out at me. 

I'd much rather he survive and glean some reward for all his 
efforts.  And I can see an academic career similar to the one Carol 
stated. But when he does make Headmaster, Old Phineas' portrait will 
have a place of honor.
