I have been listening to the Harry Potter audio books (for about the 100th time) and I just finished the part where Harry sees Snape’s memories in the pensive in the Deathly Hallows. This part always makes me happy sad. Poor Snape is such a grumpy sour puss but with a good heart under it all. Underestimated through the whole series, he comes out as one of the most sacrificing and courageous characters at the end.
“After all this time?”
“Always,” said Snape.”
Then I got to thinking, that’s sort of Poe like. Poe has an amazing heart, and really is a loveable thing, but in sort of a secrete way. Just like Snape. Poe acts like an old grumpy sour puss pony. He has this, death-to-all face when he is in competition like he is evil and dark. Normally he is all pinned ears and evil looks towards Simon and Spike. But when he thinks no one is around I’ll catch him sharing his hay, and loving on Simon and Spike. And he loves on me all the time.
I suppose if I were to change Poe’s name (which I am not), I would rename him Severus Snape. I think it would be quite fitting.
