Alla:

Oh, Okay. Sorry about that. I thought you were responding to me and 
could not figure that out. Sorry.

Alla:

Oh, no, no Pippin that was just a speculation as to what kind of 
Snape redemption I would find reasonable if that is to happen. As to 
your summary - no, not quite. In that scenario Snape is NOT forced 
to do anything, he brings it all upon himself by foolishly taking an 
UV and then this Snape does not want to bee seen as wrong in DD 
eyes, conceals third clause from DD ( I guess it is mainly Siguine 
Snape again) and here we go - Tower.

The bottom line - I accept as REASONABLE any kind of Snape as long 
as his choice on the Tower is shown by JKR as wrong, not even 
necessarily that Snape thinks that it is wrong, but the author does.

As I said, I don't think that any of DD!M Snape theorists accepts 
that Snape was making a wrong choice on the Tower ( he was either 
following orders with Real AK or Fake AK, right?), so that means 
that I don't accept fully DD!M Snape as reasonable possibility ( I 
mean, it can happen of course and as long as Snape will be still a 
bastard, I can live with that), but right now I don't buy it.

But if any of DD!M Snape agrees that what Snape did was HIS decision 
and his decision only - I will buy that Snape, even if such Snape 
truly believes that to kill DD is the only possibility under 
circumstances.

Basically I don't buy the responsibility shift for what happened on 
the Tower to ANYBODY but Snape ( and Voldemort of course). As long 
as it WAS Snape decision and Snape accepts responsibility for that, 
I am buying it, but getting Snape off the hook by putting the 
responsibility on the dead man? No, not buying that at all, just as 
I did not buy DD little speech of getting Kreacher off the hook and 
implying that Sirius is to blame for his own death ( IMO of course).

I would even buy that DD was dying on the Tower IF DD did not ask 
Snape to do him in.

Snape may have had the best intentions in mind, but one way or 
another IMO it will be shown that he was wrong to take the life 
instead of trying to save it.

Alla,

who still helds some hope for Snape be putting in Azkaban (without 
dementors - not wishing this hell even upon Snape) for life at the 
end, but is doubtful about it .
