Aura:
Thanks for the welcome, Potioncat. Glad to be here.

IIRC, didn't Hagrid call Snape "the potions master" in SS/PS? And
elaborates, "but he wants to be DADA master," or something to that
effect. Which would support the explanation that "master" is just an
archaic term for teacher. And Snape sure is the type to be stuck in the
past.... 

Personally, I was turned on to the theory that Snape made the immortality
potion for Voldemort because of that (astoundingly well-delivered line by
A.R.), "I can put a stopper in death." Here there be foreshadowing! This
could also theoretically explain why Snape has managed to not be killed
by DEs yet, when he was a known double-agent in the last war. If Snape
knows what's keeping Vold alive, then he knows how to kill him (or at
least Vold thinks so). Voldemort wants to keep his enemies closer when it
comes to Snape.
