Severus Snape Harry, who was starting to feel warm and sleepy, looked up at the High Table again. Hagrid was drinking deeply from his goblet. Professor McGonagall was talking to Professor Dumbledore. Professor Quirrell, in his absurd turban, was talking to a teacher with greasy black hair, a hooked nose, and sallow skin.
It happened very suddenly. The hook-nosed teacher looked past Quirrell's turban straight into Harry's eyes -- and a sharp, hot pain shot across the scar on Harry's forehead.
"Ouch!" Harry clapped a hand to his head.
"What is it?" asked Percy.
"N-nothing."
The pain had gone as quickly as it had come. Harder to shake off was the feeling Harry had gotten from the teacher's look -- a feeling that he didn't like Harry at all.
"Who's that teacher talking to Professor Quirrell?" he asked Percy.
"Oh, you know Quirrell already, do you? No wonder he's looking so nervous, that's Professor Snape. He teaches Potions, but he doesn't want to -- everyone knows he's after Quirrell's job. Knows an awful lot about the Dark Arts, Snape."
Harry watched Snape for a while, but Snape didn't look at him again.

HARRY
Those names you have – they shouldn’t be a burden. Albus Dumbledore had his trials too you know – and Severus Snape, well, you know all about him—
ALBUS
They were good men.
HARRY
They were great men, with huge flaws, and you know what – those flaws almost made them greater.

"Wonder what's wrong with his leg?" [Harry about Snape]
"Dunno, but I hope it's really hurting him," said Ron bitterly.

"Idiot boy!" snarled Snape, clearing the spilled potion away with one have of his wand. "I suppose you added the porcupine quills before taking the cauldron off the fire?"
Neville whimpered as boils started to pop up all over his nose.
"Take him up to the hospital wing," Snape spat at Seamus. Then he rounded on Harry and Ron, who had been working next to Neville.
"You -- Potter -- why didn't you tell him not to add the quills? Thought he'd make you look good if he got it wrong, did you? That's another point you've lost for Gryffindor."
This was so unfair that Harry opened his mouth to argue, but Ron kicked him behind their cauldron.
"Don't push it," he muttered, "I've heard Snape can turn very nasty."

ALBUS pulls on HARRY’s robes. HARRY looks down.
Do you think – what if I am – what if I’m put in Slytherin...
HARRY
And what would be wrong with that?
ALBUS
Slytherin is the house of the snake, of Dark Magic... it’s not a house of brave wizards.
HARRY
Albus Severus, you were named after two headmasters of Hogwarts. One of them was a Slytherin and he was probably the bravest man I ever knew.
ALBUS
But just say...
HARRY
If it matters to you, you, the Sorting Hat will take your feelings
into account.
ALBUS
Really?
HARRY
It did for me.

HERMIONE
We get this right, Harry’s alive, Voldemort’s dead and the Augurey is gone. For that no risk is too great. Though I am sorry what it will cost you.
SNAPE
Sometimes costs are made to be borne.
The two look at each other, SNAPE nods, HERMIONE nods back, SNAPE’s face crumbles slightly.
I didn’t just quote Dumbledore, did I?
HERMIONE (with a smile)
No, I’m pretty sure that’s pure Severus Snape.

SCORPIUS
You loved his mother. I don’t remember everything. I know you loved his mother. Harry’s mother. Lily. I know you spent years undercover. I know without you the war could never have been won. How would I know this if I hadn’t seen the other world... ?
SNAPE says nothing, overwhelmed.
Only Dumbledore knew, am I right? And when you lost him you must have felt so alone. I know you’re a good man. Harry Potter told his son you’re a great man.

SNAPE
Harry Potter is dead.
SCORPIUS
Not in my world. He said you were the bravest man he’d ever met. He knew, you see – he knew your secret – what you did for Dumbledore. And he admired you for it – greatly. And that’s why he named his son – my best friend – after you both. Albus Severus Potter.
SNAPE is stopped. He is deeply moved.
Please – for Lily, for the world, help me.

Depulso!
DOLORES is propelled backwards through the air.
She always was too grand for her own good. There’s no turning back now.
