Severus Snape Question

Who is the "biggest fan" ?

Lets suppose:

Fan 1: She has read all Harry Potter's books 3 times.

Fan 2: Before she could bought the book The Deathly Hollows, accidently read some spoilers that talked about Snape's death and all his history. She bought the book but never had the courage to read it because of Snape's death, even though she had read all the books before.

Hard to say, but I guess if you are a fan, you have to read the last book no matter how painful that is. I am a mix of both, read all the books more than three times actually, and before DH came out I read all the spoilers I could get.

Fan 3! Big Fan!

*Okay serious answer. I am going to go with fan #2. I do not think reading the book more times makes you a bigger fan. It's how you relate to the characters in the story and how you interpret the story. Fan #2 obviously relates to Snape rather well and does not wish to interpret the impending story.

It's kind of a mix. Just because they read the books three times doesn't mean they are the biggest Severus fan. Most fans I know (of Severus or anyone else) read it more than three times. . .

Like lilith84 said: a true fan would read DH anyway.

I'm sorta-kinda #2. It goes in this order:

1. I've seen all 6 movies first.

2. Then I read the spoilers about Snape, his death, and his love for Lily -

3. then I read the books 1-6, and

4. is afraid to read book 7, because...well, you know.

No, to be the biggest fan you would have had to have read Severus' death scene, because if you were the biggest, most devoted fan, you'd want to suffer through that as a sacrifice to his pain.

I meant I did read the death part.For the first time,after I read that,I felt sympathy and sadness for Snape.I used to really hate him.But after that,I saw him as a different man

Ok, I read the parts in the book that mention Snape. I watch the scenes in the movie that have him and skip around to find him. Even ifhe's just hanging around in the background. I'm obsessed with drawing him. I don't think Lily deserved him. I try to pretend he didn't die.

Been Obsessed with Snape since 2000, yeah, I know I tend to bring it up, 10 yrs!!! WOW!!
Anywho... read all the books cept the last one several times. Have all the voice files, play them on my MP3. Have all the movies. If I can I make my own posters, cause Franchise aint doing it for me, incl pillows/Huggers. Am I the greatest Fan?? I doubt it, but I think I am one of many Hard Core fans, who've stuck by him from early on, and the passion, love, dedication, devotion, loyalty.. still strong. :D

Me too, I have voice files on my MP3, not only from HP but also one from Sense and Sensibility and another one where Alan Rickman reads Sonnet 130 from Shakespeare. I'm crazy for his voice.

I don't relate to either fan 1 or 2.
But my HP fanfic is focused on Severus.
If you read my posts here, you'll notice that I refer to him by his first name, not his surname, as if he were very close to me - well, he is.
I read one day on a fan website that, from what he could let show of himself, he had a INTJ profile (from the famous MBTI test). It happens that I have the same profile than him ! Great !
I haven't been a fan for a long time, but as they say, value is not made up by the number of years, but by the depth of feeling and how I relate to him.

And yes, I must reckon that Alan Rickman did a lot to make Severus even more lovable... (not just the voice, but a lot, yes).

I don't say I'm the biggest fan, but for sure, I'm a very devoted one. Like many folks here.

EDIT : I inherited a locket from my mother. You know these medallions which can open so that you may put an image inside. Guess which image I have in ? One is the Slytherin crest. The other is a pic of Severus, my fav actually, the one featured here below.
I also have Severus as a wallpaper on my computer desktop.

I remember it took me actually several yrs until I was comfortable enough to address Severus by his 1st name. I've always had felt to forawrad. Now anymore I prefer to say his name because I do feel that close to him, and referring to Severus by Snape only.. lol anymore that makes me cringe, because of the closeness. Makes sense!?!?! And I know what ya mean about the deep deep feeling and very devoted. :)

Right from the start I could not call him but by his first name - maybe an habit from fanfic writing ? I use either Prof. Snape or 'Snape' only in fanfic when a character talks about him. Not me.

SnapeEnchantres said:
Oh, believe me, to be the bigger fan, you HAD to have read the books, ALL of them, including the Deathly Hallows featuring beloved Severus' death scene.. Because a true Severus fan, would suffer through it for him <3 (I'd catch a grenade for ya/throw my hand on a blade for ya/ I'd jump in front of the snake for ya...). This is coming from a member of the I Trust Snape club from Day 1. I've been IN LOVE with this character for 10 years...

Totally agree. A true Severus fan would feel utmost compassion for him. For that, one needs to read his story all the way through.

Don't believe one fan is bigger than another.We all express our love for Severus in our own individual and often obsessive ways.At the same time we all seem to collect pictures on the computer,keep rereading the books and watching the movies.We all collect "Sev bits and pieces" -figures,dolls, cushions,jewellry.Lol, by now he's become a way of life.My bedroom's overflowing with Sev posters and collectabilia.My husband has to sleep in the spare room!

1: Bookmarks every single page with Snape on it
2: Can’t stop watching scenes with Snape in
3: Keeps having dreams about Snape
4: Always talks about Snape
5: Sobs for at least 3 hours when hears “Always,”
6: Always knows Snape is there in our hearts
7: Pretends Snape is right there.. next to me...
8: Screams, “I’LL LOVE YOU, SEVERUS! ALWAYS!” when watches/reads about Snape’s death.

Yeah, that’s way too many reasons. That’s me.
