| As much as I adore Sevmione HEA fics that feature them discovering that they are kindred spirits, I can appreciate where this is coming from. I can see Severus either accepting death or even welcoming it. One feature of far too many Sevmione fics is the extreme Dumbledore bashing that occurs because the author feels Dumbledore must have sacrificed Severus for Harry for the sake of expediency. Dumbledore wasn’t perfect but he was not a megalomaniac either! Too many describe him as such. If he wanted power, he could have been MoM, easily. It would have been far easier to fight Riddle and the Death Eaters with the strength of the Ministry (and the press) behind him. He knew he couldn’t risk becoming power hungry. Instead, he lead a rag tag team of wizards and witches to fight a war. He and Severus were mirrors of each other. They both made a life altering mistake as a young adult that resulted in the death of someone they loved. They both spent the rest of their lives trying to atone for their mistakes. They both gave their lives for their missions. Despite these similarities, they have tremendous compassion for Severus but absolutely none for Dumbledore. Dumbledore is accused of cruelly allowing Severus to undergo torcher in order to spy. Of course, Severus' other option was to simply retire from the D.E.s. I’m sure Voldy would have been just fine with that. I mean, it worked for Karkaroff./s He’s also accused of using kids to fight a war. Dumbledore didn’t choose to have Harry fight voldy, the PROPHECY did! Dumbledore had to abide by and work with the laws of magic, just as everyone else did. Another commenter's contention that Severus and Hermione would never have worked because she was too immature is almost directly counter to the argument for why they would. The 19 year gap in their ages is stated as the reason they could never work. It’s assumed he would be beyond her level in emotional maturity. Emotional maturity can only be gained over time with interactions with others. What you learn from conflicts and your subsequent approach to and reaction to new situations, particularly conflicts, determine your level of maturity. Severus is at best, emotionally stunted. Hermione is mature for her age because she learns her lessons quickly and well and she is naturally compassionate, generous, tenacious, and kind-hearted. Because of this, she tends to be more emotionally advanced for her age and will likely continue to advance at a rapid rate. In other words, they meet in the middle. Additionally, they share common interests and are both outsiders, partly because of their intelligence but also because they both annoy the crap out of their peers. Hermione is a bossy, obnoxious, know it all and sometimes a bitch. Severus is a snarky, sarcastic, git and sometimes a bastard. They’re a match made in purgatory. | |||

| The O-fucking-kay answer was very OOC for a 38-year old wizard, but all in all, I liked it. I liked it because the biggest arguement I have ever had about why Snape and Hermione would have never worked is because she sees the world with immature eyes and he could never see her as an equal (and you have to be on the same level ground to form any sort of romantic connection.) He would have slit his throat rather than taking the Dr. Who or Sherlock Holmes course of teaching her like she was three years old every day of her life. He hated teaching to begin with, and here in this story, at the very end of his life, he still has to teach her. She's deluded because she still just can't get it through her thick head that she doesn't know what's best for everyone. | |||
