That said, the reason behind his being what he was was horribly executed. Ghavrel Send a noteboard - 25/12/2009 05:48:27 PM
"Oh hi Harry we all knew your dad and mum and Snape really well and you seem to want to know a lot about Snape and you've even seen interaction between Snape and your mother but we're not actually going to tell you that he had a thing for her even though that could conceivably provide a huge amount of motivation for his actions."
~fully half of the freaking characters of the series


So I guess I disagree with you in that the final scene determining his allegiance was very surprising, and in the not-good causa ex machina sort of way. "You have your mother's eyes" isn't sufficient foreshadowing for that.
"We feel safe when we read what we recognise, what does not challenge our way of thinking.... a steady acceptance of pre-arranged patterns leads to the inability to question what we are told."

Anakins turn in Star Wars is the best example of the wrong way of doing it. Asharak - 24/12/2009 12:15:53 PM 687 Views

When Snape addresses his love interest with the most vile slur imaginable? Ghavrel - 26/12/2009 05:22:11 AM 634 Views
*shrug* it's a human reaction in the instance *NM* LadyLorraine - 26/12/2009 08:44:53 PM 311 Views
It's highly implausible. *NM* Ghavrel - 27/12/2009 06:00:15 PM 309 Views
On hind sight that does seem odd... Ryan - 27/12/2009 05:18:00 PM 657 Views
No deatheaters. It's just common at Hogwarts to show love through verbal abuse. *NM* Ghavrel - 27/12/2009 06:00:51 PM 297 Views
