>>This breaking news floored me! I mean, I know each and everyone of 
us
has wondered about Snape and Luna....No, really, has anyone ever
heard this rumor before? Is it something that's really been floating
around somewhere else? As far as I'm concerned, JKR might as well
have said "Snape doesn't own a white cat"!

So, I do have to wonder, again, unless this is a big concern on other
sites: why did she bring this up?

And, does this mean, Snape does not now nor never did have a
daughter? Or Snape has never been a father?

Potioncat (the twins, of course, were always a joke, but I'm not
giving up on SNAPE!SON yet)<<

I found that very odd as well, who on earth would think that Luna 
could be Snape's daughter? That would be *quite* the conspiracy. Its 
most likely nothing, but I got rather stuck on the wording of "Snape 
does not have a *daughter*." (emphasis mine). Is she trying to give 
us a clue, but hiding it in the middle of a false rumor? (or maybe 
the rumor is real, does anyone go to the forums at Leaky or 
Mugglenet? Was there a Snape/Luna theory?). 
Before he was confirmed to be Nott, I would vote for the stringy 
Slytherin kid who could see thestrals as Snape's son. But that's out 
now. Hmm, there's always the theory that he's the teacher who has a 
family (she alluded to the possibility that one or more of the 
teachers is married at one point during at interview), and that the 
hook-nosed man yelling at a woman in his memories is *him* and the 
child is his child. My favorite theory for why Snape left Voldemort 
is the death of his family...perhaps he has a dead son.
