Sev

Severus Snape for me (and all his fan) has been a very great pleasure for us since the past ten years. For me, he is the reason why I kept attached to Harry Potter film franchises. As revealed in J.K. Rowling last and final book of Harry Potter, Snape is the true hero, shadowed by his "cold" and moody nature, also by his pale skin and dark eyes; who knows he's a saint?? 

Severus Snape was born to Tobias Snape, a muggle and a witch, Eileen Prince (correct me if the facts are wrong). Snape, as a follower of Lord Voldemort, of course; hated Mudblood or Half-Blood (as I am curious why all the evil sides hated Half-Blood so much, given the situation that their leader, Voldemort himself is indeed a bloody Half-Blood) but Cupid's arrow struck his heart when he saw Lily Evans (a MUGGLE) for the first time. And ever since, his love for Lily has never changed, even after her murder by Lord Voldemort.

As a double-agent, Snape who initially served the Dark Lord, bearing the Dark Mark with him; turned his loyalty to Hogwarts and to Dumbledore, eventually. This happen after Voldemort's betrayal to him, when  Snape begged the Dark Lord to spare Lily Potter's life. Being so emotionally-amused by committing murders, Voldemort murdered Harry Potter's mother Lily. But, when he changed his loyalty towards Dumbledore, he remained "loyal" to Lord Voldemort in front of him. He turns spy for Albus Dumbledore.

For me, Snape was a skilled dueller, an excellent one I presume. Judging from his skill when disarming Sirius Black in the third film, and during the 7 Potters escape from Number 4, Privet Drive, and also during his duel with Professor McGonagall (which he flees because he is outnumbered). If he ever fated to fight in the Second Battle of Hogwarts, I daresay that he'll murder Voldemort for sure if Harry never showed up, again. However, when he is confronting the bloody Dark Lord for the last time, he must keep pretending that he is on his side. Thus, he is willingly given his life to Voldemort. Although in the final book he did protest, but he, still have Dumbledore's word with him, that is to remain "loyal" whatever happens.

Snape died in the hand of Tom Marvolo Riddle, the man he worshiped for the past 20 years. Harry Potter named his son, Albus Severus, for albus Dumbledore and Severus Snape; the bravest man Potter and I and the others had ever known. Rest in peace Severus. 

Keep biting, write me.
