It's one of those memes I can't refuse, mostly because it's done in comments and well, it's something I'll ACTUALLY DO RATHER THAN SAY I'LL DO.

I admit, I feel a bit (A BIT?) biased toward Snape, so I have this unhealthy disregard for Dumbledore and all his machinations. Of course, in the same vein, you got to respect the old man for pulling off ruthless actions for the greater good. Maybe.

The two of them are both in balance and off-balance to me; I always felt that if Dumbledore told Snape to jump off a cliff, Snape might curse and grumble and take a few Gryffindor's off with him, but he'd jump in the end. And if it meant that a lot of people could be saved, I sometimes think Dumbledore would tell him to do it. But sometimes, I think I'm being too harsh on the old guy; he was doing what he could to win a war and maybe you need something like that to win. Though, it'd be kind of interesting to someone tackle the idea that the side of 'good' got so entrenched into responding the way they do, that post-War, it would be little more than vigilante society.

And yeah, I'm in the camp that totally thinks that there was a reason for the deathspell.

Got to say though, there's something about them; I read fics where Dumbledore didn't die in the sixth book and the two of them spend the rest of their days together somewhere far, far away from Hogwarts and the British wizarding world and together. ;_;
