I think sometimes contrast is really doing cool things if it is not misused to make a bad situation look like a status quo.

I've been thinking today that with Snape, contrast is really the main thing you notice about him and it can be irritating and it obviously is to a lot of people who hate him very vocally.

But I think, in this absolute mess of circumstances and also actions sometimes, he also somehow keeps this constant line of goodness in him, which is remarkable. For some reason it gets more appealing in the context of his off-putting sides.

And he develops this good streak, albeit with a lot of strain mostly. I think that to many people who like him, to me as well, this is somehow the most fascinating and attractive quality. There's so much shit about him and then he has this heartbreaking gentleness and depth of feeling, it's so bright and delicate and genuine and determined and vulnerable and somewhat fragile and sensitive but still lasting. He lets it lead him. Somehow and more and more, he lets this take over and surrenders himself to it, so it brings out his true destiny. Absolutely remarkable and maybe all the darkness and the shit he's done somehow shows this even more clearly. Or maybe it just wants to make us believe in it more, which can also be a good thing.

That's what I mean by contrast. That's why it always touches me so deeply to see or read about the silver doe as well. It's beautiful. 💖 It's not weak, it's kind and unrelenting.

When do you think Snape learned the Patronus? Why did he learn it? How long did it take to master it? Did he self-teach, or did someone teach him?

The moment the blood pact breaks has the same tension and poetry we found out in DH when the Silver Doe manifests herself. An eternal love mirroring into the other. (pic not mine, ask for credits)
