Remember the scene where Hagrid said that Dumbledore and Snape had an arguement? I think the agruement may be Dumbledore asking Snape to kill him. If you read the scene where Dumbledore is killed. He is pleading with Snape. At the end of page 595, he says "Severus....please." Dumbledore would not plead for his life. He own quote is "death is the next adventure." He's not afraid to die. So I think he was pleading for Snape to go through with it....and save Draco. Voldemort would have killed Draco if he didn't kill Dumbledore.


I'm a Snape/Lupin supporter so.....Tonks/Lupin saddened me. I thought Tonks was immature in the hospital scene.

Yeah, I thought Tonks' whole character was off. I can see in the future a happy ending marriage for Lupin and Tonks.

...

SuicideSeaside, that's probably the best argument I've heard so far. It makes perfect sence for Dumbledore to plead for his death, not for his life. He would be saving Malfoy, helping Snape stay undercover and it would encourage Harry to face future challenges alone.

The only thing I haven't figured out yet, is why protect Malfoy? What's so special about him? Why would Dumbledore die for him, and Snape make the unbreakable vow to protect him? Year 7 is shaping up to be quite interesting if you ask me!

In the 5th book, the sorting hat talks about the 4 houses joining together. I wonder if this still applies to the story. This also may be about the horocuxes being in the 4 houses. Draco is able to redeem himself. He's hasn't turned all bad. Like his mother, he is still able to care and love. As seen in chapter 2, his mother is still a horrible person but she's able to love. Due to the recent events, Draco may be turned from the death eaters since Voldemort threatened to kill him and his parents. He can represent Slytherin in the 4 houses coming together like the sorting hat said. I think we'll see more of him in book 7.

This is kind of off the subject but I wanted to know what you think. I have a theory that Snape loved Lily.

In "Snape's Worst Memory" (Book 5), you read that Lily stands up for Snape while he was being teased. She is probably the only one who stood up for him. Snape was probably teased by James plently of times but this is named his worst memory...why? He called Lily a mudblood and was probably embarrassed about it. Maybe it was just the situation and the anger at the time that caused him to say that. Sometimes, people don't mean what they say when they're angry.

Throughout the series, Snape always talked about James to Harry. He never said anything about Lily. In book 6, we find out that Lily was very talented in potions as well. I think Snape and Lily may have interacted in school. As Harry read the Potions book, he noted that the handwriting looked like a girl's. This could have been Lily's.....or his mother who owned the book before him.

On page 32 (book 5), Aunt Petunia said that she heard an awful boy telling Lily about dementors. We know that dementors joined Voldemort early in the 1st war. So this must have been in the earlier school years. We know that Lily hated James before their 7th year. So....this boy might have been Snape. I can't picture James talking about dementors to Lily anyways....

On page 549 in book 6, Dumbledore said that telling Voldemort the prophesy was the greatest regret of his life. Dumbledore always said that love is powerful. That's why he was so sure that Snape was good and on his side now. After Voldemort went after Lily, Snape turned.

Another thing is....Snape always picks on Neville. Maybe this is because Neville is the other boy in the prophesy.

I don't know how valid this theory is....but it's just what I think.
