I would want to get a closer look at that young Snape ... Does anyone know have they already somewhere showed a bigger pic of him? Or are they hiding him, just like they did with Krum




edit: I found the thread where this was announced. There´s the only piccie I managed to find about the guy (it was in another thread, too) and the lad is riding a wooden horse there, lol!

Doesn´t look that bad, at least the nose is about the right size And that under the tree pic shows they have put descent hair to his head

So maybe he´ll make a good one, even though I wrote in that thread:
If anyone finds more piccies of this young man, post here.

I've seen the one with the horsie before, it's lovely! checked for others as well, but so far: nada.

Draco's Dutchess: same here.


there's a transcipt of this interview online and actually, Rowling's answer's a bit different:

in other words: she didn't really say anything, at least about Snape's siding.

Just wanted to stop in and say have a good weekend. See you all on Monday. If you find any pictures of yound Snape let me know. Do you think that Snape ever used Legilimency on a student?

I guessed that That makes it even more clear than it was in the former quote ... "I would say" That´s hilarious ...

Quote:

But then again, why didn't he just read Harry's mind when he accused him of stealing from his storage cupboard in GoF? Probably because he didn't think he had to! He thought he was right!

How do you know he didn´t? You just said DD wouldn´t have been very happy about it, so he couldn´t use it as an evidence. However, the Gillyweed Harry used was stolen from his storage, so he was sort of guilty, even though he didn´t steal it himself ...

Quote:

Doesn't it say in a few of the books that Harry felt that Snape was "reading his mind"? After learning of Legillimens in OotP, I figured those to mean that, that's what Snape was doing when Harry felt that way.

I have thought about it, too. It isn´t necessarily so, because Snape has those piercing eyes that might give the impression, but it is possible

hope this doesn't get too confusing, but copy&paste won't work for me today, and i'm too lazy to type it all...

to J.K.'s "slip": she was with her back against the wall, can't say yes or no. She knows how careful she has to be. So, I would interpret to much into this. Or you could even determine who'll die, by what she said in the end about the dinner-guests.

One less than Molly: you're right: gestures and intonation play a huge part in the meaning of words. I'm with you behind that fence :-)

mind-reading: (though dear Snape wouldn't like that expression) I'm pretty sure, he reads people's mind occasionally, esp when he encouters students who tend to lie a lot, just to know that he's right.
But as it was said before, he can hardly use it as evidence. All other teachers, if not parents, would certainly object.

I'm sure that he was. I remember after we learned about Snape's Legillimency talents and rereading the series. I would sort of laugh at those parts and be like "He is Harry, I'm sure of it!"

I guess we don't know if he read Harry's mind, but I just remember reading in the book and it didn't sound like Snape was doing it when he accused Harry from stealing from his stores. But I wouldn't consider Harry guilty, since he didn't know where the Gillyweed had come from. Dobby just gave it to him.

eeee I'm back from vacation and need to read back what I missed! Will do soon. In the meantime...

Welcome to the SSFC and to Spinners End, SeerCassandraTrelawney and marielilla!

I can't imagine she'd say "Dumbledore is deffinately dead" and have him reappear in the book......

Just down to Calgary to see my family for a couple days. It's a long drive with the kids.. thank GOD for portable dvd players! It rained, and in fact we were kept in one night due to some severe thunderstorms (and a possibility of tornados). Didn't get to see everyone.

He's definitely dead, in the way that Harry's parents are definitely dead. Still, she managed to have James and Lily play a rather significant part in both Philosopher's Stone (via the Mirror of Erised) and Goblet of Fire (in the Riddle graveyard during Priori Incantatem). Harry's trips into Dumbledore's pensieve have always been significant and I think that in book 7, that's where Dumbledore's going to be the most influential to Harry. Let's not discount the new portrait of him in the Head's office. I don't think Harry's seen the last of that office. Dead is dead in Harry's world, but dead is not necessarily gone, as we've seen.

I second evlpez with both: thank god for portable dvd player, and Dumbledore will still appear in book seven. Harry will have to gather further information; we will have to find out why Dumbledore trusted Snape (and I can't imagine a scene where Harry and Snape sit down for an 'honest I'll-tell-you-everything'-discussion over a cup of coffee).
The portait and / or the pensieve hold all the answers.


But it's not hard to guess, is it?

Couldn't have put it better myself!!!!!! And I'm sorry the vacay didn't pan out the way you had planned! That always sucks. I wish I had a portable DVD player, but I don't have any kids. I just want something besides music to keep me entertained in the car sometimes!

Which means that Harry will have to go back to Hogwarts!! I think a scene between Harry and Snape like that would be totally awesome! Hehe... No, I think he'll find that out in the Pensieve. I am SO excited to find out what that reason is! Maybe just because I have a theory, and I want to see if I'm right (though I'm probably not!)

Whoo!! I joined the SSFC!!!! *runs to find/tell Drusilla*

*reads last posts*

I hope that Harry has to go back to the school. I was sad that he wasn't. And, I do want to find the reason why Dumbledore trusted Snape. I keep waiting for JK to tell us each book, but she never has. *shakes head* I want the 7th book to come out soo much. Find out which side Snape is on, why Dumbledore trusted him, and a whole lot of other stuff. I've read soo many theories about the 7th book. Some of them are stupid, but some of them are really good. *waits for next book to come out*

Well, welcome, Nicole

But I´m still not joining that GL-club ...

Nice to see you again

*Your just in denial of your love for him...

*blinds Drusilla with his awesome smile(which is the five time winner of Witch Weekly's Most Charming Smile Award)*

*coughs*

I´m not like a typical girl ...

But I love Nicole, anyway, she´s a bit stupid liking the teeth of Lockhart, but she surely knows who´s the king of the nowadays punk rock scene ...

teehee. *feels special* *huggles*

Err. *ish running out of things to say*

Is running off tha place ...

Good night, sleep tight

Hi Caitlin

Well, I've read a few. I don't want to know, yet I can't resist the urge to hear theories!

I like the name Spinner's End. It's cool
