snapes I have known

All the recent talk about fanon!Snape varieties has inspired me to do some cartooning. I should clean it up and make a Snapes Of The World poster. In the meantime, I've made it into a quiz instead. To be taken with a shaker of salt, of course.


orthodox!snape
You are an Orthodox Snapeist.

You take Canon!Snape at face value -- like JKR
says, Snape is "a deeply horrible
person". You like to write/read stories
where he's portrayed as supercilious, unfair,
often undignified, and sometimes downright
cruel. You may accept some partial
explanations for his behavior when they're
offered in canon, but you're still pretty hard
on him, and don't like to let him off the hook.
The guy's a nasty, unwashed git -- it says so
in the books!


What kind of Snapeist are you?

Oh, and a GIP. General idea stolen from [livejournal.com profile] caesia390. My my, a GIP and a quiz in the same post -- I'm becoming quite the little LJ-er now...

It's funny, I come out as Orthodox too, but I'm sure that when I write I slip into Conservative mode.

Same here. It's hard to resist, isn't it? *G*

Yeah, mainly because Canon!Snape is *such* a complete jerk.

I think you almost have to write him as the man he *could* become instead of the man he *is*, if you want the readers to have any sympathy with him at all.
