Snapecast - an appeal to Honour our Snape

I would like to launch an appeal to you:



In their latest episode, the staff at [livejournal.com profile] snapecast has asked their listeners to compose epitaphs for Snape. I am really not good at this sort of thing, but I know that many of you are, and therefore I would ask you to please, please contribute a short crazy poem or a snarky line or two.

Send your epitaphs to severus (at) snapecast (dot) com; or if you like to send a soundbite, you can phone Snapecast through Skype; their username is (surprise!) "snapecast". The deadline is 11 August.


For myself, I clearly haven't recovered yet from the blow that was Deathly Hallows, and all I could come up with was a bitter


Here lies Snape.
By life a complex character, he died a stereotype.
May his fate remind you of the harm a Mary Sue can do.



I know I'm not exactly doing Snape a favour here, so I was hoping that one of you might.

You know, if you inserted 'canon' in 'Here lies Snape', it would be perfect as a header on snapedom. May we use it?

Sure, why not? ...It does sound a bit negative, though - I mean, if you want to strike an optimistic Snape-note in the community after the annoyance of DH, this is perhaps a bit, well, too bitter. But if you want it, by all means take it :-).

I would insert the canon Snape. And put it on the user info, most likely. Or maybe on an icon. And of course I'll give you credit. Thank you!
Bitter? Oh yes. I don't think snapedom will be some happy-clappy 'snape is not dead, lahdidah' community. Although we'll certainly do our best to point out how he would have walked away. ;)
