1. The GoF DVD comes out on my birthday! I swear, Delleve and I are kindred spirits (HBP was out on her birthday). Frankie, yours too, right?

2. I have somewhat of a poll question.


If an older Snape were ill and dying, and someone had to find him, where would it be?

A. The Shrieking Shack; he'd have gone there to be morbidly ironic, because he's a morbidly ironic person.

B. A forest, looking for potions ingredients to save him.

C. Being fed grapes by his long lost daughter, Maria Susanna Cleeshay.

D. In battle, leaving no doubt as to what side he's truly on.

E. With his mother, who is trying to save her only child.


Is all. I already know where he's dying and who finds him, and I think I know which scenario I'm using, I am just curious. (And panicked, as it's for a challenge that's due, oh, in about four days.)

Like [livejournal.com profile] dernhelm87, I love A, but I think B's the most realistic.

C has a lot of appeal for a parody, though, but I'm assuming that's not what you're doing for the challenge.

C was the obligatory "silly option." ;)

Yeah, I figured. ;)

What's so sad is that you could give this question to over half of fandom and they'd think it was a serious option. Except, of course, in the hands of a sue-author, she might become "Maryae Severa Susanna Cleesay the III" or something even more ridiculous.

C of course ;)

J/K. I like A personally.

I'd pick C. Being fed grapes by his long lost daughter, Maria Susanna Cleeshay, only becuase I can't seem to think of him in a serious light lately. But really, I think it'd be D or B becuase it'd be proactive and I could see him doing that.

Hahaha, I love selection "C", but I would probably go for "D."

B I think. I'm no Snape expert though.

. . . can I say E and not be considered joking?

Seriously. In Book 6, he identifies strongly with the aspect of him named for his mother even in contemporary times--it's the identity to which he appears to run when everything gets banged up. I could so see him and his mother, the both of them hard-eyed and grim, searching for some solution to this fix.

E wasn't supposed to be a joke, just C, so sure. :)

I don't think that's what I'm going to go for, but I am going to try and fit in a mention of Eileen Prince-Snape. :D

I vote for E, but I gotta give props to C for humor.

Hee. We're triplets now, then!

And I'd have to say A and B. Finds ingredients --> goes to Shack because he's just crazy like that.

Hey, I like this idea! He'd have to get his potion talent from SOMEONE, and I can't picture Tobias as having the same amount of intelligence as his son - sorry Tobias. ;) Hehe, Eileen and Severus as 'partners in crime', or at least in the lab. Yeah, I could see that. *nodnod*

Seriously? Hmm, an older Snape... Can I give an option F? In his lab, working out a solution by himself and stubbornly refusing to give in - after all, he talked about 'stopping death' so he's going to do that dammit!

I think he'd go back to Spinner's End, but somehow I suspect his mother is dead, so my vote goes to F) None of the above. Because when you say "older Snape," I'm imagining one who survived the coming war and is now has a terminal illness or something. If you're asking how I think he'll really go, the answer's D.

B. I love it, it's so ironic and just so like him.
