Ouch? 

Toonmili:
  There was no way he could have known.  Lily and James trice defied 
Voldemort. I doubt they went about advertising it that Lily was 
expecting.

Voldemort found out they had a child.  Unless you think that Lily 
wrote Snape and told him that she was having a baby. There is no way 
he could know that was expecting unless they were in touch.  And I 
think we can assume that they weren't.


Alla:

Yep, I specifically said that as canon stands right now he did not 
know. As canon states right now, he delivered **unnamed couple and 
their baby** to Voldemort.

But do I exclude the possibility that he may have known? No way, 
especially since I believe that Snape having an obsession about Lily 
will be disclosed in some way, shape or form.

Alla:

No, not to me. This is the kind of action which to me is 
unexcusable, back against the wall or not. What Draco did is pretty 
much of the same variety to me <g>. But JKR and myself may differ on 
Draco, LOL.

Alla:

LOLOLOLOL. That would be what Magpie ( I think) once characterised 
as JKR coming out in book 7 and telling us about Snape as character -
 Sorry guys, I was just KIDDING. And if you dig DD!M Snape, why 
would even this variety of Snape be forced? Isn't Snape working for 
redemption sort of important part of his character? And if Snape was 
forced, he does not need any redemption for his past, no?

Well, this is one of the prediction I feel rather confident to make -
 Snape joined DE out of his own free will. Feel free to remind me of 
that after book 7 :)


Toonmili: 
> And the memories form Occlumency are his, unless you are 
suggesting that Snape has someone else's memories in his head and 
finds tham so personal that he wants to hide it from Harry.

Alla:

Where do I start? How about the man being Snape, not the boy for 
example? Wouldn't that be the nice trick on JKR's behalf? There are 
several other possibilities which go against Snape being abused in 
his childhood and scene being another trick to elicit sympathy for 
poor Snape.

Although that may be " just kidding" backwards, I guess.
