*Disscusion* Snape - 'Always' the enigma

  1. Pompadour, start us off, will you? ;)
  2. Ooh, OK. :)
    So, basically, there's a great deal of argument over the kind of man Snape was. Many argue that he was "a good guy" and a true Gryffindor at heart, dedicating and - inevitably - sacrificing his life for Lily. His actions were the epitome of true love. But here comes the question - was it love or obsession? Weren't there selfish desires beneath all that Snape did, or did he truly change over time? It is true that he harboured a profound hatred towards James Potter, and then his son, Harry. Yet, he died for him and for the right cause.

    So who was Snape, really? What do you think?
    *fires red sparks into the air*
    Let the debate begin! :D
  3. Snape is not a true Gryffindor at all, he hates Harry and James, but protects Harry because of his love for Lily. This for me makes Snape my favorite character, because he is all flaw save for his true love.
  4. Snilly forever. I don't care if the Harry Potter series wouldn't have happened. They're just-so- UGH PERF


Way, way back in the 1988 Presidential election, then Vice President George H W Bush had a phrase he liked to use: "A Thousand Points of Light." It refers to the idea that a community is made up of people who contribute in a thousand, different small ways, but with each helping to illuminate their community. It's a phrase I think about a lot when it comes to YWS. Looking forward, the site will continue to change and grow, but it will always remain a community dedicated to promoting creative writing as a favorite pastime.
