    Snape looked into the mirror of Erised with a crippled face, showing much grief.
    He could hear steps coming from behind him. He quickly composed himself and looked back. Dumbledore. Snape was stunned and didn't know what to say.
    "Fine afternoon isn't it Severus?" Said Dumbledore. He looked at Snape with a questioning face.
    "I- sir..."
    "What brings you here to look into the mirror of Erised? Would you mind telling me what you see?" Dumbledore asked.
    "...Lily" Snape shrinked, his cloak hiding his body and looking away, afraid of what Dumbledore would think of him.
    "Severus... After all this time?" Dumbledore asked slightly baffled. Snape turned back and looked at him in the eye.
    " *Always* "

    A life where he could have lain on the grass with Lily, looking into her eyes, forever.
    A life where James Potter and his gang would've respected him.
    A life where he'd been sorted into Gryffindor alongside Lily.
    A life where he'd have to give everything to protect his own son.

  • @STSGirl05
    @STSGirl05 4 ปีที่แล้ว +26

    I keep thinking about Dumbledore saying to Snape "I sometimes think we sort too soon" and how distraught Snape looked at that. I think, given everything we know, he might have been sorted into Gryffindor. Yes he had cunning, ambition, drive--esp as a young boy desperate to prove himself as a wizard, as a man, as just being worthwhile. That was an overwhelming thing for him at 11 going to Hogwarts. Beyond that, the Gryffindor traits of bravery, courage, and loyalty exemplify what Snape is about as a person. Underneath all his bitterness and anger and wretchedness, that is who he is. Given that path he would not have become a death eater. So I think if he were to see himself and Lily sorted into the same house, it WOULD matter which one--i think it would matter a great deal. And I think it would be Gryffindor. (Great video btw)

    • @CHLOCHLOLP
      @CHLOCHLOLP 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      i think hed make more sense as hufflepuff considering he was loyal to lily and only her for almost his entire life, you know barring selling her family out to me lol. Snape is a very complicated man and I dont think he really fits into one house very well, but i would say hufflepuff would be most suiting if he didnt betray his friend. He is also very cunning/ambitious considering the crowd he was in with and their goals and he was able to get me to give her the option to be spared, so I think slytherin does make sense, but the hat isnt prophetical, it doesnt know he is going to betray her or have these ambitions in later years, so to me it seems like he should have been sorted hufflepuff, as he was deeply in love with her at that time and that was probably his main concern and value, being her friend. But perhaps the hat could sense some innate entitlement in him to her or something, and thats where it decided slytherin... or it knew someone as greasy as him holding out for lily was the most ambitious goal it had come across yet LOL.

I believe he would have seen himself similar to Lucius Malfoy...wealthy, faithful death eater, with Lilly at his side and Harry as his son. He didn’t like Harry because he was a reminder of James. In the case of the mirror, Harry would be his son.

      He needed Harry to sacrifice himself for the good of all and because it meant that the unknown horcrux would be destroyed . But one could also argue that Harry couldn’t have died because of the blood Voldemort took, and Dumbledore knew that, but didn’t tell Snape, because of Voldemort maybe getting the info out of Snape and Harry needing to feel that he was going to die and sacrifice himself. But there are of course double standards in this story .

      He didn't, he only needed Harry to think that he was going to die because Harry had to sacrifice himself in order to defeat Voldemort. Dumbledore knew (or at least was almost convinced) that Harry didnt die for real. But Harry had to think he was truly sacrificing himself.

      IngeC That’s why in the Last Battle for Hogwarts no one dies! As he had sacrificed himself for all the people in the castle, like his mother did for him, they are almost not affected by Death Eater spells, which leaves only Harry as a potential death. But come on, he is Harry Potter! He escaped the Dark Lord almost 10 times, robbed gringots, camped fleeing from a hundred death eaters and a lot of other people trying to catch him for the prize, why would he die from a 1/7 of Voldemort’s soul.

    8:25 this is how cults recruit new victims, the weak, the vulnerable, the lonely, people looking for a place to belong.
    Do you remember the Smallville tv show from a few years back (about superman as a teen in high school with Tom welling) one of the stars of the show the girl that played Chloe Sullivan (Alason Mack) she somehow ended up getting pulled into a sex cult where the head guy would actually brand the women in the cult with his initials, Alason got so broken by it she actively recruited other women to be abused just like she was, and didn’t see anything wrong with it, this is pretty much what I think of for quite a few deatheater, including peter and Snape and probably quite a few more, Draco comes to mind and maybe luscious (at least towards the end) people that started of feeling like they had found people that accepted them for what they were and by the time they realised they where trapped it’s too late, I mean look how Dumbledore was talking to Snape when really Snape was still that lonely trapped little boy.

      @jack rogers Lol James was just chasing a girl that's what guys do, Snape after growing up still can't get over the fact that James bullied him (while snape did quite some things back as well) he can't get over the fact that he couldn't get the girl (which was his own stupid fault by starting with dark magic and calling her a mudblood) And he portrays all of the hatred he has for James on James and Lily's only son just because he looks like James . Yes Harry can sometimes be impulsive but that is no reason to be such a huge dick to him. (and yes I know Snape protected Harry but still that could have been just an order from dumbledore so doesn't count) His obsession with Lily is so bad that he can't even let go of her when he is an adult how pathetic is that?

By which time snape had already killed their relationship by associating with people who practically wanted her dead as she was muggleborn and for lashing out at her and calling her musblood. Non of that was the marauders fault.

    I really love the video bcz it's about my favorite character Snape..and I knew what he would see in the mirrors of Erised..but you have answered one of my questions which I wasn't able to understand even after reading the hp books..that Snape was not like Voldemort, who was cruel, power hungry..Snape was a good person from childhood when he met Lilly but I didn't understand why he was interested in dark arts and why he created those hex , curses under the name of HBP..
    But now I know it's because of the humiliation, bullying he got from the marauders made him do this thing..thanks for giving me the information
    But one point I'll disagree with you that Snape wasn't infatuated with Lilly..he loved Lilly but he didn't get her due to his some mistakes

    You said that he’d see them in the same house, but I don’t think he’d see them together in Gryffindor as the Marauders were all in Gryffindor. If he did see them there, the Marauders would have been gone, especially James. I personally think he wouldn’t have gone back that far. He would have just seen him winning Lily, living a normal life (for a witch and wizard) with no James and no Voldemort to interfere.

      Pureblood status starts from the third generation of wizards and witches so any witch or wizard whose parents and all four grandparents are magical qualifies. That rule is based on the real life rule of Nazi Germany where a single Jewish grandparent was enough to get someone sent to a death camp.

    I suppose the real romantic of the tragedies of the HP stories is Snape. I may disagree with Lily's opinions sometimes, yet her willingness to sacrifice herself to save her son is her most redemptive quality. Yet, she should have never been put in that situation. There is no way I can hypothesize what Snape would see in the mirror. Time may have changed his feelings or thoughts. Would young student Harry (who saw himself with his parents) see in the same thing in the mirror as older father Harry? Probably not.
