Since HBP, I've been wondering if Snape fits into this somehow. An
awful lot of people have suggested that it was Lily's death that 
Snape
regrets. Anybody have any ideas? Any explanation has to account for
the fact that Snape must have been feeding Dumbledore useful
information before Lily and James were murdered.



I was just reading this and I thought of something really crazy. 
We know that at this point LV wasnt quite immortal, but not still 
mortal really either. Now we know that despite Snapes evilness, he 
really is an incredibly talented wizard, especially at potions. What 
if Snape was making for LV some kind of potion that he needed or 
that made him stronger, kind of like he did for Lupin. This could 
have been some kind of very advanced, difficult potion that most 
wizards or witches couldnt accomplish. And either becasue he didnt 
want to or possibly even couldnt he had Snape do it. Now what if the 
only favor horrible little Snape ever asks is that LV not kill Lily, 
maybe even suggesting that her ability with potions could make her 
useful. This would give LV sufficient reason to not kill Lily. But 
he does and Snape is pissed and he either really goes to the side of 
good, or decides that he is going to remain loyal to only himself 
after this. Just a wild theory, but it could explain a lot.
