Lol - and he's a Pure Blood in this fic too... Just thought I'd warn you of that as well! XD
But of course, we knew he couldn't be a pureblood because of the matchbox quote.... (*snicker* Do you remember that old PRESTO discussion back in 2003?)
But yes, the "Snape Manor" thing has always been quite laughable. (As if whatever he owned was going to be grand and in good condition!) I always thought he would be in either some old and tatty 1930's semi-detached house in suburbia somewhere, or some dilapidated house in woodland (Like Mr Rochester's "Ferndean" in Jane Eyre...the Gothic Character rears it's head again it seems...LOL :P) But then Mr Rochester is probably also to blame for all the Manor ideas.... *sigh*
