 Re: A New Idea For Snape
Good point, Winky. Except… from "A new idea for Snape" (Deathly Hallows forum) Quote:

SHE BELIEVED that Snape could make it all better. Snape is smarter than that. from the thread, “The Contradiction To ‘albus - The Time Traveller Theory‘" (Deathly Hallows forum) Quote:

(3) Snape vowed to do whatever was necessary to keep Draco safe, EVEN IF that meant killing Dumbledore. If doing the chicken dance in Times Square on New Year's Eve would help to keep Draco alive, then Snape would be bound by his Vow to do the chicken dance. The method does not matter.
(4) Narcissa, who has been in the habit of wiping Draco's butt for the past seventeen years, could not imagine that those days are gone. Neither could she imagine defying Voldemort.
(5) Snape is smarter than Narcissa, and possibly smarter than Voldemort. He understood that actually killing Dumbledore would be irrelevant to Narcissa's cause -- that it was NOT NECESSARY. It is only the Vow itself that will protect Draco from Voldemort. The fake murder of Dumbledore protects Snape, not Draco. |
