Snape. Should He Be Trusted?

I think that Snape should be trusted. Not just becasue that Prof. Dumbldore does. I believe he can be trust (at least with harry) because James Potter (harrys dad) saved Snape life. So now i think that Prof. Snape is trying to give the favor back! But who knows? Some people think that he is mean (Harry, Ron) then others think that he is awsome (Draco).

Snape was a former Death Eater. He has the tattoo to proove it. There are too many people who won't forget that. So Snape has his work cut out for him.

But with all these magic solutions flying around, I think there is a genuine lack of communication between Dumbledore and Snape. I understand that Dumbledore is a hands-off kind of guy, but it wouldn't hurt for him to bag the magic and just talk to Snape about the possible consequences of his behavior. It might even help.

If Harry managed to save Snape's life during a battle, would Snape be grateful or would he resent Harry even more?

I think he is loyal to Dumbledore. He was a Death Eater, but that was his Dark Days. Now he is no Death Eater,*lets hope*, he is just Snape, Potions Teacher, Member of The Order of The Phoenix, and Head of Slytherin House.

So, do you think that Severus Snape would join Harry Potter chat? What posting name do you think he would choose?

He'd probably be really ticked off that he couldn't use his name, seeing that 10 other people have used his name and variations of it! *laughs*
Hm. Maybe "Ten Points from Gryffindor." That's kind of long though.

so many good ideas!!!

I know Snape thinks voldomort is evil and he wants him gone but i think snape just hates the fact that harry is in gryffindor and he keeps getting into all this trouble while hes risking his neck to keep harry alive. Snape is a closet case sweetheart and I think hes going to have a lot to do with voldomorts downfall. I mean it's not like voldomort would ever take snape back now and snape knows it.

now theres a thought... if snape is trusted...
and thought of as "awsome" by draco... looks out for draco...
gives draco that fatherley notice that he obusley lacks from "dady dear"...

if he keeps it up HE'LL be a father figger to a deth eaters son!!!!!

what do you all think...?

zonko... (a.k.a mr know it all) what do you think? :P

I think he can be trusted. Then again, Dumbledore has been wrong before. He was wrong about not telling Harry. He was wrong about not trusting Sirius (to be the Potter's secret keeper.)

OMG I JUST THOUHG OF SOMETHING!

Remember when Hagrid said he was "Keeper of Keys" I always figure it was because he was games keeper. But what if he if one of Hogwart's secret Keepers? That's why first years ride the boat to see Hogwarts because Hagrid needs to show it to them.

back on subject...

Dumbledore, even though he is great, he is still human. His trust maybe miss laid. However, Snape has gone out of his way to protect Harry. The brrom stick year one, alerting everyone year five. He's not very nice, but that doesn't make him a Dark Wizard.

right ... well said padfoot
