I wanted him to die! You have no idea how much i hated him. I thought he was a good guy but I thought that just meant he should die for Harry or something. Now I feel pretty bad lol. Yes its sad.

I still think Snape was the tragic character in the HP world. And even in his death, he wanted Harry to look at him so he could see Lilly's eyes one last time. *sniff*

lilyalways picked yes:
he devoted his adult life to protecting Harry and his love for Lily never wavered. He deserved to be recognised as a hero while still alive; if he had to die he deserved that his heroism be publicly known and acknowledged. The headmaster portrait aspect is unbelievably cruel and unwarranted even in the context of the story.

LadyNottingham picked yes:
Really sad to know he died. But had he lived and got redemption from society, that would not have granted him the redemption he needed most : from himself, after what he had done to Lily.

As for a snake bite... He was a Slytherin, whose symbol is a snake. He spent most of his life slithering between light and darkness (i.e. double agent between Dumbledore and Voldemort) in a desperate quest to forgive himself and seek redemption. Only death could grant him the peace and solace he craved.

The tragic hero has to die and therefore, his death was logical, even if it was unfair after all he had endured. *weeping on his soul*

"Look at me"...............gets me every time, lily's eyes the last thing he saw.
I thought his death was fitting he wouldn't have wanted to go down in a blaze of glory he didn't want people to know how he felt, but i still cried my eyes out at that sentence, new he was good before i saw the memories,
JK is a genius creating such a detailed and connected love story for the unlikelyest of characters

I cry so much at this scene, I'll make a complete fool of myself watching his death in the last film.
Of course I was sad, I love Snape, but as awful as it may sound I knew he had to die. Otherwise Harry would most likely never have learnt the truth.
This scene is so beautiful. I really hope they don't fuck it up in the movie.

"Look...at....me..." he whispered. The green eyes found the black, but after a second, something in
the depths of the dark pari seemed to vanish, leaving them fixed, blank, and empty. The hand holding Harry thudded to the floor, and Snape moved no more.

i cried! It was just so wrong for him to die after everything he did. IF he was going to die he deserved a more glorious way of going out! Not a freaking snake bite! He was a potions master and spy for crying out loud! He should have expected this..esp with nagini eating charity burbage at the start of the book! Shesh!

xElvenPiratex picked yes:
I was crying my eyes out and physically shaking as he died! I'd believed all along that he was really working for Dumbledore, but when he was dying and there was no real evidence of it, I kept thinking, "No, he can't die this way, actually being evil!". When the memories started seeping out and he told Harry to take them, I started crying even harder, because I realized they would exonerate him and *finally* explain his story.

His dying was truly horrible, but also very poetic, I think. The fact that he died using his last breath to save Harry's life just proves what a hero he was and how much he had meant it when he said, "Always". The circumstances surrounding his death may have been anti-climactic, but in the end I still think it was a beautiful way for him to go.

Reading the books, I cried. I could have asked for more of a memorial than the 2 or 3 lines Harry shouted at Voldemort in the books (I mean really, Dumbledore got what for his 20-30 years of experience, and Severus didn't even get any kind of memorial?), but at least it was something.
I hated that they left him with nothing in the movie version. And I cried twice then, squalled when it happened, then teared up again at the injustice that they left his little bit of vindication before his comrades out. Ugh!
