*SPOILERS*In HP7, how do you feel about Snape and Lily?

I love how Snape actually loves Lily and the last thing he tells Harry to do is look at him. What do you think about this?

*SPOILERS*In HP7, how do you feel about Snape and Lily?
I think that it was a great way to prove how good Snape actually was. We all had strong feelings for Snape and I think these strong feelings went from loathing to loving in the turn of a page. It was so great!





And my favorite line of the whole book is when he tells Harry to look at him. It took me a bit to figure out why he did that, but softened my heart when I figured out that Snape wanted to see Lily%26#039;s eyes as he died.





That is some great writing!!! Way to go JK!!
Reply:i was not surprised.





in the 5th book harry goes into snapes memories and he was tormented by james, padfood, moony %26amp; wormtail. and he was saved by lily.





she had a kind heart.





i once saved a nerd in school after that he followed me everywhere for a month.


so i could understand how snape felt.
Reply:I think it%26#039;s amazing that Snape carried such a torch for her all his life, and that it actually effected all of his actions throughout his entire life, even up to the point that he betrayed his Dark Lord and worked against him just because the Dark Lord killed Lily.
Reply:I thought it was great! And tottaly uexpected
Reply:I did expect it because there have been slight clues and people have been theorizing about it for years.


I found it touching and that may just be because of the way that it was finally revealed.
Reply:I had suspected that he was in love with her, or maybe it was my wish. It was ever so slightly hinted at in books 5 %26amp; 6 through memories (occlumency %26amp; the pensieve).





I believe he wanted Harry to look at him so that he could see Lily%26#039;s eyes one last time. Remember that it was said in a few books that he had his mother%26#039;s eyes.





I was beside myself w/ excitement when Harry saw Servius%26#039; last memories which explained why he killed Dumbledore. I kept insisting that Snape was no longer a DE, that he was working for The Order of the Phoenix.
Reply:I totally didnt expect this!! I really did love how she created this though!! It was soo cute!! I seriously cried a lot!!
Reply:I felt that it was really good and knowing that Snape was a good guy all along was really making sense...from the point of him saving Harry in Book 1 and him teaching Harry Occlumency to prevent the Dark Lord from accessing his mind..It all just fit....And the part about his feelings for Lily was so heartwarming that I almost wished he should have been with Lily rather than James...lol...but then I guess there wouldn%26#039;t be a story called Harry Potter now would there?....lol..I loved it.
Reply:I%26#039;ve always thought it was true, but I didn%26#039;t really expect it to be canonized. I thought it was really cool, I never imagined that they were actually close friends! I didn%26#039;t think that Snape was on the good side, but I guess J.K. proved me wrong.
Reply:waaaa!!!!!! it was so unexpected. but i love love love snape now. especially the part where dumbledore asks snape if he care about harry and snape goes%26quot;always.%26quot;





i feel so bad. i used to hate snape. he risked his life so many times for harry cuz he was lily%26#039;s son. it prob. pained snape to look at harry cuz he looked a whole lot like james. and his eyes were lily%26#039;s





WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Reply:I thought that the snape/lily situation was the best part of the whole book! His memories made me cry. And when I read the part about Snape asking harry to look at him I totally went to pieces haha.
Reply:I think that Snape became by favorite character the moment he asked Harry to look at him. He wanted to see Lily%26#039;s eyes before he died, I guess that%26#039;s why JKR said that the similarity of Harry%26#039;s and Lily%26#039;s eyes would play a significant part in the book. It shows that Snape really and deeply loved Lily. Even though she loved james, Snape still had her best interest in mind and sought to protect her. I almost cried with the dialogue going on in %26quot;The Prince%26#039;s Tale%26quot; chapter. It showed the real Snape. I love that plot twist, although I did suspect it for awhile. Hope you enjoyed the book : )
