Could it be illitimate-half-brother!Snape?? Ooh...that would

Tonks here:
Yes that is were we are all going with this. Except Snape is not an 
illitimate child. He is the child of a muggle and Sirius' father 
from his first marrage, short though it was. (of course the woman 
could have been a mudblood instead of a muggle, but it would be just 
as bad to the Black family.)
