Potioncat:
I suspect we'll end up agreeing to disagree. And here's why: I don't
think we'll ever see anything like, "Snape's voice trembled with
remorse." And if we do, "I'll" be suspicious.
Back to the scene in the hospital wing. Just because he didn't
display a feeling of remorse then, doesn't mean he hasn't felt
remorse. At that particular moment, he was more likely feeling anger
or frustration at Fudge for not paying attention to Dumbledore. I
suspect after 14 or more years, the feelings of remorse would appear
at night, interrupting sleep, causing him to pace the floors or
wander around well after midnight
hmmm, maybe I'm on to something.
But now that I think about it, what are you looking for? Is the
issue that you don't think Snape regrets his past association with
the Dark Lord? Or is it that you think he still works for LV?
