Do I even have to say it?? HP BOOK SEVEN!
[JK] also revealed that Harry himself made sure that the portrait of Snape made it into the Headmasters Office, but doubts that he ever went to speak to it.
BAH! Another reason why I don't like Harry much...
This makes me want to cry so very much:
because there's a question there, was Snape a good guy or not? In many ways he really wasn't. SoI haven't been deliberately misleading everyone all this time, when I say that he's a good guy. Because even though he did love and he loved very deeply and he was very brave, both qualities that I admire above anything else. He was bitter and he was vindictive... but right at the very very end, he did, as your question acknowledges, acheive a kind of peace together and I tried to show that in the epilogue.
I can't bear to think on the fact that Snape's really gone. I think her discussing his attributes like that just brought it all back again. As long as I stay away from info about the 7th book, I can deal with life. Ha ha. But there really is an ache inside me that will never fully go away when I think about Snape- and it's different from (POTC 3 SPOILER)
Norrington because you read more and more about him as the years went on, he was a presence in the books and then the films back that up, and you just have Snape and more Snape and more and with Norrington he was there for three films, for what? a few years of my life, but not in that way that HP has been apart of my life. Besides, it's easy, when you're a 6 year Rickman fan, to mourn the loss of a character he brought to life than one Jack did (as much as I love him). So yeah, Rickman and Snape have been such big parts of my life that it's tragic to see that character go.
I really must stay away from the HP chat. Ha ha.
Anywho, I'm getting all this from:

In other news, I applied for two jobs today. We'll see what happens. *sigh*
