i also found it weird goin into someone bedroom and tearing up that bit
but i guess thats one kind of love where u dont let go of the person u love and u hold on to the memories
still i wud say if snape had lived there cud hv been something different not totally but something different yes
but by killing snape jkr finished the era which began with power egos and jealousy and all that
snape wud hv died any way
finally i still feel snape had a powerful character in the entire series
more than harry or voldy or dumbledore
what u say
N U call it wierd..whats WIERD anyway?? He went to Grimmauld Place to search the place to make sure that no clues of the OOTP are left behind...
an while he was searching, he found a letter of Lily's n obviously he tore the letter and took the latter half which had her "LOVE" (It was signed "Love, Lily")π whats wierd..he loved her and she never did and now he took sumthing hat had her love..I dun find it out of character at all..It was he least wierd thing he did!π
as for clutching on to those memories..they wre, allow me to say, kind of a lifeline for this man..he lived after Lily died only to make sure that she didnt die in vain..his love compelled him to do so..he lived for Lily and dwelled on those memories...recall his own words in The Prince's Tale.."I wish I were Dead..."
he didnt live for greed or love of life..but love for memories of a late woman...π
By killing Snape, she gave us the oppurtunity of Character Study...Snape wasnt a mean person..his life indeed began with egos, wanting of power..But he had a good heart..he chose the way his heart indicated over what his brain indicated at the time when that decision decided the course and consequence of his life...
Snape was a man who changed from wrong ways...committing wrongs is human, to correct them and to follow the path of redemption, it takes lots of guts..
I cant say I think Snape to be a stronger character than Dumbledore..for I believe that a man who even at the face of hs own death cann smile and manipulate the plot, the man who has to scarifice so much but yet pretend to have no worries..to keep cool at all times and paste a huge and reassuring smile on his face all the time, and at the same time to live with grief at a terrible wrong u did that took a toll of ur sister's life, n led to his Brother's unforgiving hatred...and to redeem the wrong u did..it takes much much more guts...Snape at leas had the relief of showing out his anger and frustration thru his irritating indifference...π
