Perhaps that's because Snape knows only Voldie can kill Harry..? Does Voldenmort know the whole contents of the Prophecy? So wait...what if snape COULD HAVE killed Harry, but because of the prophecy, he thought only Voldenmort could kill him, thereby sealing the prophecy...? Am I making any sense?
It is also a possibility that Dumbledore was saying, "Please," as in please kill me. That way, Snape could remain spy. Dumbledore might have instucted him to kill him if in this situation.
But I have a theory as well...
di you remember, James saved Snapes life and you already know the whole thing about owed life debt. What if Snape could not fullfill that and promised instead to get those life debt to.. erm, yes Harry maybe. Just a thought...
Well, Dumbledore could have been right. Snape was not a Death Eater anymore. But I don't think he was a good guy either. Snape's one of the smartest people in the books. Dumbledore said it himself. He sometimes makes mistakes.
I don't know Maddy. I't doesn't have to be that much stronger, heck it could be weaker. The wand just has to suit the owner. The better suited, the better it will work.
I'm not sure about Snape, but I think Snape was maybe hood-winking both sides. Snape was looking out for Snape. He's just been trying not to get himself killed all these years.
What if someone *requested* him to kill him that he could make a horcrux? You never know! Bye the way, I am not the kind of HP fan who believes that Snape is truly evil. That whole thing happened because of a higher purpose we don't know (yet) !
And beside that, why should a cutain to hell be in the Ministy of Magic o___O ? But come to think of, why should a curtain to death be there as well ? o_______________O
Oh, you know what? I got it! Harry's going to come in contact with the veil again and he'll finally learn what it does and he'll be able to speak to Sirius.
But that death was so silly, I mean falling behind a curtain and bye bye? Hell no, makes no sense to me! Maybe he is anywhere where nobody may reach him but he's not dead!
Thanks Kuro! JKR said in an early interview that one of Harry's classmates would ironically become a teacher. She ruled out Harry, Ron, and Hermione. It's gotta be Neville.
I don't think Percy will die, but if he would die, than it would be sad if he died and was in anger with all his family and so on as he was in book 5. Really sad...
Okay no kidding, Voldemort will die I think, but not only him. More characters will die or at least suffer a lot. I would say Hagrid or Lupin or maybe even Ginny or Neville.
OMG you guys, its they're fictional characters! Yeah, I admit, I was a bit dissapointed that H/Hr didn't get together but its more for the plot that I read the books and also book 7 not coming just because H/Hr didn't get together is stupid!
We have to make our message more clear:
LISTEN UP!
HARRY/GINNY AND RON/HERMIONE ARE THE OTP'S IN THE BOOK! DEAL WITH IT! YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN IT COMING ANYWAY! IF YOU'RE PUSHING FOR EMMA AND DAN, GO AHEAD, I GUESS THEY'D MAKE A CUTE COUPLE. BUT DON'T GO CONFUSING THEM WITH THE BOOK CHARACTERS! JKR HAD THESE TWO PAIRINGS FIXED IN HER HEAD FOR FIFTEEN YEARS! AND YOU WANT TO MAKE HER CHANGE IT JUST TO PLEASE THE H/HR MINORITY?!? I HAVE ONE WORD FOR YOU:
DELUSIONAL!!!
