Nice to have the list opened again... I've been dying to talk to 
someone about the book.

*chin* *chin* Let's make a toast to the man of the moment, our very 
own Potions Master, the James Bond of our era, Severus "Snivellus" 
Snape!!

Siriously (yes, that is how I spell it ;) ), How many of you had a 
huge smile on your faces when we realized that Snape was on teh good 
side? Didn't tears literally burst out of your eyes when he casted 
the Patronus Doe in DD's office?

I know I did, I'd always been a Severus fan, I wasn't convinced he 
was a good guy, but still I loved him. Now I'm torn, I don't know any 
longer which Potterverse 'bad guy''s the one for me. I am torn 
between Sirius and Severus. Luckily I have a big enough heart for 
both of them.

I think that chapter (The Prince's Tale) was probably the best 
chapter (or a close second) in the entire series. Dumbledore always 
said that love was the most powerful power... and did Snape showed it 
or what?!? He put himself through all sorts of dangers all in the 
name of love... The bravest man indeed.

I've read in The Leaky Lounge (from The Leaky Cauldron) that some 
people are taking Severus' last words (look...at...me) as his last 
attempt to look into Lily's eyes, actually I believe he was asking 
Harry to see him as what he was, to take those memories and realize 
all he'd done to protect him. That he didn't hate him (I don't think 
he ever did), that he simply wanted the best for him.
