    Voldemort :”Snape ,could u hold the elder wand for a minute ?”
    Snape *Takes the wand* : ”My lord ?” *sweats nervously*
    Voldemort *holding the other wand* : ”Expelliarmus”
    Voldemort :”Thats all for today ,thank u severus”

      Oncat Forever Snape managed to kill Dumbledore with the Killing Curse because he needed to in order for Voldemort to be defeated. He didn’t want Dumbledore to die, but he genuinely wanted Voldemort’s downfall, which required him to complete the killing. Furthermore Dumbledore’s personally giving Severus permission to kill him almost certainly allowed his soul to remain intact, satiating that aspect of the latter’s concerns.
      It’s possible Voldemort using the killing curse would have worked because he genuinely wanted mastery of the Elder Wand, which he (wrongly) thought he needed to kill Snape to acquire. And of course, the Dark Lord had no qualms for his soul. Could this have overpowered his great distaste at the thought of killing Severus? Quite possibly, don’t forget his one true goal was immortality, for which he believed he needed the Elder Wand.
      However as rightly pointed out by Dean in this video, the movie version makes little sense, as Voldemort could have simply attacked Snape with a non-lethal curse to test its ability to harm him.

      @@VulKus117 Fair points, both of you. I was simply noticing parallels between the two situations; neither executioner wanted to kill, both had a driving goal, both had great respect/trust for the person they're executing. I can certainly see and get behind the factor of Snape being desperate to bring down Lily's murderer and ordered by Dumbledore, while Voldemort is driven by planning his own potential gain and by his arrogance, which Snape had been very useful for (to his knowledge). Voldy logically should've tested the wand first. But the twisted idea of giving his trusted servant a more "meaningful" death rings true to me- that mentality when ordering Nagini to do it fits into his character. Thank you for discussing this, I always appreciate someone dedicated enough to this fandom (or any fandom) to type out a rationale for their view on a character or fictional event. My kinda people. Have a great day!
      P.S. On the off chance that any of you read fanfiction, would you happen to have any recommendations? I'm just getting into HP fanfiction and would love to see more that focus on a Snape & Harry mentor/mentee relationship. Those just make me soft, so happy to check any recs out! No shame in self promos. Okay, I'll stop rambling now. Thank you!

      i disagree. voldemort may have been annoyed at having to kill one of most useful followers, but he would have wanted the elder wand more. if the killing curse didn't work, that would suggest that voldemort cared more about snape being a loyal follower than him having the elder wand and that i cannot buy

    I think that Voldemort slit his throat because he had a sense of anger towards killing him, because he was so loyal and essential to him, it’s sick but I think he was almost angered at the inconvenience of having to kill snape, he also didn’t stay to watch him die, it definitely was heavy on his mind

      @@florathepagan Yeah I agree. You don't have to like him, but seeing Voldemort's earlier years at least helps you understand him, making him a way more interesting villain.
      In a way his story paralleled Harry's at least to start with. He grew up being abused by those around him, but then discovered he was not only incredible powerful but had an extremely prestigious lineage. He went from being a powerless nobody to as he saw it, the heir of Salazar Slytherin, almost Salazar reborn, but greater. However he then discovered this story he built for himself was a lie, as he discovered he was half blood. Voldemort's obsession with power comes from being traumatised at his most vulnerable, as well as extreme self loathing for his bloodline.

      This was actually the beginning of his downfall. Lily's deaths only count as a sacrifice because he "tried" to spare her. In the PoA, he kept telling her to "Step aside, silly girl" He told told her like 5 times to step aside. That seems extremely generous coming from him. So he really wasn't gonna kill her. Hence she choose to sacrifice herself.
      And he was only gonna spare her, a mudblood, for Snape. So inthe end. The entire story, everything was all thanks to Snape love for Lily. And Voldemort favorable image of Snape.

      All that and they are both very powerful wizards. In his own twisted way (especially after dumbledores death) he had some extreme respect for snape. Voldemort respected snape. He feared Harry. And he hated how much he respected and feared Dumbledore. There really wasn’t anyone else who he even acknowledged and saw as somewhat equal to him.

    I love how, unlike the other death eaters, Snape never cowered or debased himself before Voldemort, maintaining his dignity even in death. He could have begged for mercy, or revealed that Draco was the master of the elder wand, but he took it like a man, a very brave one at that. I think Voldemort would have admired that quality, perhaps making it more difficult to kill Snape. I agree that Alan Rickman's outstanding performance in this scene gave this pivotal moment the weight it deserved. Thank you, again!

    Did everyone forget the movie version of the deathly hallows? Hermione stated: "That night. Another wizard took the wand and slit the brother's throat for good measure." Voldemort literally recreated the story believing he became the master of the elder wand. However, lets not forget that Voldemort loves killing people, simply watching their lives fade away gave him pleasure, but killing Snape gave him no joy at all. I wouldn't say that killing Snape angered Voldemort, but doing the deed definitely bothered Voldemort that it had to be Snape. I'm willing to bet that Voldemort would have instantly ended any other death eater except Snape.

      But Voldemort didn’t know about the deathly hallows. Don’t forget that the resurrection stone was part of his grandfathers ring, which he made a horcrux, without realizing what it was. The hallows were supposed to make whoever had all three master of death, which Voldemort would have been obsessed with had he known. He simply knew that there was this wand out there that was supposed to be the strongest ever. So I don’t think he was recreating the story intentionally.

      Hmm... respectfully, I don’t think they’re mutually exclusive. Arrogance is always a product of something. An effect, rather than a cause. Where does Voldemort’s belief of superiority, his arrogance come from? How does he justify it within himself? By objectifying the world and empirically evaluating worth along standards of his choosing. It is his inability (or refusal) to empathize and certain refusal to see intrinsic value - in short, an inability to love - that caused his arrogance; which caused his downfall.

Because psychopaths do not care about loyalty outside of how it benefits them. They do not care about anything outside of how it benefits them. Everything is an object, a concept that either serves, does not yet serve, or opposes their will. Is that arrogant? Yes. Absolutely. But to call it just that is short selling it by a mile.

I may be wrong, but I was under the impression that Dumbledore only ever truly figured out Voldemort's actual lineage after Riddle became Voldemort (again I could be wrong, it's not very clear when Dumbledore found out Voldemort's true parents, unless I missed something). But regardless, even if I'm wrong on that (which I mostly likely am because I'm honestly unsure of when Dumbledore found out Riddle's lineage) it still is definitely a possibility that Dumbledore kept it a secret. After all, he himself stated in the 6th book, after one of Harry's lessons, that Harry should only inform Ron and Hermione of what he'd learned because he (Dumbledore) didn't want Voldemort to find out about how much he knew of Voldemort's past.

      Imagine how Hogwarts would have been if Snape hadn't been there to temper Death Eaters.
      Snape wasn't happy about killing a man he respected and the only one who trusted him, first because of the respect he had for him then because maybe with the instigator of the plan it won't work and end up as it should and maybe even because he had a feeling that would lead to his own death.

    There are several similarities between Lord Voldemort and Emperor Palpatine:
    • Both are near unparalleled masters of the dark arts with only a few capable of matching them.
    • Both are hungry for unlimited power and will kill or torture anyone to achieve it
    • Both are incapable of feeling sorrow, empathy or remorse
    • Both have loyal followers to achieve their goals; Voldemort with his Death Eaters and Palpatine with his Sith apprentices and dark side adepts
    • Both sought immortality
    • Both were brought down by outside and/or unforeseen circumstances; Darth Vader’s love and sentiment for his son led him to betray Palpatine and Harry being the master of the Elder Wand and the destruction of the horcuxes led to Voldemort’s death

    Voldemort liked Snape. He personally recruited Snape into the deatheaters even though Snape wasn't a pureblood. Snape, in his duel against all 4 Marauders, showed his magical skill and determination to be the best. This impressed Riddle. I believe Riddle regretted killing Lily, even though Snape asked him to spare her life. Yet Lily chose death instead. So when the time came for Snape to die, so that he (Riddle) could become owner of the elder wand (or so he thought), Riddle knew his didn't hate Snape enough for the killing curse to him. Therefore he had Nagini go it.

    I feel sorry for nagini now that I've seen fantastic beasts 2. Imagine going from person to snake, unable to communicate with anyone then along comes voldemort and suddenly she has someone to talk to. I think the reason she did the things she did was because she was simply grateful to not be alone anymore. Having part of voldemorts soul inside her wouldn't have helped either

    People tend to forget how much Voldemort and Snape had in common. I believe Voldemort saw Snape as like a little brother/son. He wanted to make a world where nobodies mother not his nor Snape's chose to mingle with a filthy muggle and pollute their magical blood. He was trying bring about an ideal for both of them.

    Just my theory, it was said before that a killing curse will only work if you truly want to kill the person. Maybe being seen as one of his most loyal subjects, voldermort didn't truly want to kill Snape, meaning that the curse wouldn't of worked. knowing this and not wanting to risk losing face, he killed snape using a different method.

    Because then the rest of the story couldn’t happen.
    Let’s face it; there’s no other reason behind that. If the Dark Lord’s reasoning was based on the technicalities of wandlore, why would he take that risk rather than using a wand to kill Snape?
    It doesn’t make any sense and only exists so the other scene can happen.

    @minniethriver 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I always wondered why Voldemort hesitated to kill Lily, the Muggleborn, but killed James, the Pureblood, just like that. Was it bc Snape asked him to spare her? Voldemort kills people without real reason (for example the other Wandmaker, I remember him killing a mother and her children in the books without any explanation and even thinking about killing a muggle child who complimented him for "his Halloween costume" lmao). I mean, the man has real anger issues killing all these people without reason. But he asked Lily more than once to go out of the way, that he only wants to kill Harry - not her. Why? The only reason I could came up with, was that Snape begged him to let her live. But I don't remember other instances in the book where Voldemort did things for his underlings, so why grand Snape his wish (or at least he tried...)?? Was Snape back then already his favourite bc he told Voldemort of the prophecy? Idk I thought it kinds strange that Voldemort would care about Snapes wishes... he must've liked him/his work... any other thoughts on this?

    • @jhibbitt2896
      @jhibbitt2896 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      probably depended on his mood tbh. voldemort probably did do favours for his servants from time to time as he even he understood that keeping their loyalty meant keeping them happy. it probably went something like this
      snape: please spare lily
      voldemort: maybe i will, maybe i won't. depends if i feel like it
      in godric's hollow, voldemort rememberes this conversation.
      "ah might as well do him a favour as he's a good servant. i'll give her the opportunity to cooperate"
      lily refuses and voldemort gets pissed that she's not obeying him, so he kills her as punishment for not following his orders and stroking his ego

  • @shellietubby
    @shellietubby 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I don’t think Snape died. I believe being a potions master he’d anticipate the fact Voldemort would use Nagini to kill him he had a serum ready to use and then he left. His body wasn’t found in the grounds of Hogwarts so I believe he took the serum gave Harry his tears as he was recovering and simply disapperarated when he’d recovered enough.

  • @lisakaz35
    @lisakaz35 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    True that Snape changed owing to Lily but it's kinda hard to believe that in the 17 or so years after her death and the years of working close to Dumbledore he didn't ever question his past behavior in service to Voldemort. That's doesn't make him a good person but one capable of consciousness and capable of living with himself and his past. Why else would he worry about his soul being damaged by killing Dumbledore? Why would (at least in the film) he question Dumbledore and say something like "has it ever occurred to you...that I don't want to do this anymore?" I think he's far more complicated that saying other than for Lily he's an unrepentant, evil guy, unchanged by time or experiences he wouldn't have had unless he became a double agent. How could he live in that space for all those years as if he lamented not being a real Death Eater or what?
    I think there's a lot more to him that isn't seen because, firstly, no one would know (certainly not Harry). I think he was playing a public/private role and even Dumbledore didn't fully see all of Snape. He took that with him.

  • @nthingtoofear
    @nthingtoofear 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I have to disagree on several points... First the spell might have rebounded? This isn't true. The spell that hit Harry rebounded due to his mother's love. It had nothing to do with the Elder Wand. In the forest later, it doesn't actually rebound... Voldemort is impacted because he feels part of his soul dying (like he did with the diadem). And finally in his fight with Harry, the spell doesn't rebound because Harry is the master of the Elder Wand. They cast at the same time, and Harry's spell disarms Voldemort. Nothing rebounds. To the core point however... Voldemort doesn't use the Killing Curse on Snape because it is needed that way to advance the plot. In story, he would never have shown mercy. Anger, yes definitely. Never mercy. There is no logical reason to have Nagini kill Snape that the reader is aware of. Perhaps Voldemort was worried that with the Elder Wand malfunctioning for him, that a protracted fight with Snape would lead to an uncertain outcome. So he took him by surprise. He might be angry that he had to kill his "most faithful" servant... but anger doesn't dictate this decision.
