lily & snape's first meeting. he instantly is shown to be anti-muggles. & this dislike is a huge huge factor in lily & petunia's fallout

"greedily" is such a weird way to describe someone looking at their friend... its almost as if... he thinks he can own & control her (also lowk his focus on her being extremely talented/brimming with magical potential is so weird to me. he litr wouldn't care about her if her magic was nothing special..)

two more examples of how snape's disdain for muggles plays a huge role in lily & petunia's fallout. snape turns the magic into some secret club he excludes petunia from (despite lily clearly not wanting that) & proceeding to then injure petunia with magic because of some tame, shit insult. & then in the next scene, snape had seen petunia's letter from dumbledore & told lily/looked at it bcs he thought it was weird that a muggle had access to the wizarding world... (and this invasion of privacy drove the already placed wedge between the sisters even deeper). he then proceeds to not understand why she'd even care (bcs he doesn't see why a wizard should care for a muggle)

clear examples of snape manipulating her, trying to use the fact they're best friends as an excuse for her to stick by him despite anything he does & in the second scene he's trying to control what she does. obviously we have no clue what they did to mary but we can safely presume it was worse than what james&sirius did to snape in swm. & then in the second scene we also have him ignoring her very valid feelings all bcs he sees lily insulting james as a 'getting one up on him' & proceeds to then not actually listen to lily trying to have a serious conversation with him

um. yeah. he litr cannot wait to join voldemort.

neil would have said "speak"

and todd would have said "die"

but in the end

todd spoke up

and neil died
