Anyone for Half-Hag!Snape? There must be a male hag equivalent, and I notice
JKR has been careful not to describe hags in any great detail. It doesn't
preclude Snape from animagus status either. Care to guess Hag characteristics?
Dead-white, unpleasant, and what does it eats, my precious? James doesn't like
hags, but obviously Lily converted him somewhat. The other Marauders are less
convinced....
