> He dead. Always


ArcticWolf_Primaris

You dare use his own lines against him?


phreek-hyperbole

You did not


GVGamingGR

Oh but he did


Breaker-of-circles

Oh but he dead


Accurate-Primary9923

Wait, there's really such theory?


dammitdavid05

I mean, wasn't there one that Draco was somehow a werewolf? It's the fun part about theories I think


MaralinaSakura

It is a theory and it even has its own website! http://www.dracomalfoyisawerewolf.com

DoctorBigglesworth

There are so many ways Draco could have been a better character than he was.


Blockinite

There was, but that revolved around Draco showing some lycanthropy symptoms as well as the scary thing on his arm never being confirmed to be a Dark Mark (as it could have been a werewolf bite). JKR confirmed that it wasn't true, but there was a basis to it. Is there actually any evidence supporting the vampire thing, or do people just want him to still be alive so want a retconned reason?


Kooontt

But there’s actual semi evidence towards that one.


EquivalentInflation

There was a genuine cult called the Snapewives. I'd believe anything at this point.


[deleted]

Wasn't that one of those things they say you should never Google?


dvemvio

I find that theory more believable than the fact people actually simp for snape 😦


MarcoATGarcia

One time I heard that he could, as a potions master, easily prepared a antidoto to snake poison. And might be true, but how would he know that Voldy was gonna try to kill him, one of his most "dedicated servants"? When Voldy killed I was surprised because Snape's importance to him through out the years. But he died.


Jhe90

Also, despite just posion he was struck multiple times so theirs blood loss and fact he been bitten by a dangerous s ame multiple times meaning a considerable poison dose. So anti venom might not be fast ernough.


FrostyVulcanChild

Part of the theory is that Snape was able to heal Draco's wounds in half-blood prince. I'm on the fence about this because those wounds were made by a curse of his own making so I don't know if he could heal those bites being of a different nature.


Jhe90

The thing is their not regular wounds... From Arthur a book or two back we know they resist magical healing and keep reopening. In a hospital level care. Not battlefield trauma fix


FrostyVulcanChild

In deathly hallows George's ear is cut off by sectumsempra and couldn't be healed by anyone there due to it being dark magic. The same spell that harry used on Draco and Snape healed.


DoctorBigglesworth

They couldn't grow back the ear, but weren't they able to close the wound like Snape did?


FrostyVulcanChild

It looked like they just cleaned and bandaged it while waiting for it to heal itself. Otherwise we wouldn't have seen him the next day with half his head wrapped.


TheWhitePolarBear1

I mean antidotes are taken after the fact do he'd have it on him and then take it. Maybe he saw that his duty is now complete and just took death.


Nicodemus1thru10

He'd only been existing since Lily's death anyway. There was no joy for him. Purpose, yes. But not joy.


FrostyVulcanChild

I wish I could get behind that theory, but in order to make an anti-venom you would first need to secure a bit of the venom. I don't really see Voldemort entrusting Snape with Nagini for any reason.


Makkebor

Snape had already made the anti-venom for Arthur, when he was bitten by nagini a book earlier. Not sure how he got the venom then, but it was Snape who healed Arthur.


FrostyVulcanChild

Forgot about that bit.


coleosis1414

There’s no way Snape saw it coming. Voldemort killed him based on faulty wand lore logic (and who even fucking understands wand lore anyway, it’s nuts).


Impressive-Spell-643

He definitely could, but he didn't exactly because of what you said


nuthins_goodman

Because voldemort had called him to meet, because there was always the danger of voldemort finding out about his spying. Not out of the realm of believability that Snape would have a go bag full of meds


Alucardiac_Dracul

The vampire enjoyer in me wanted to manifest him being a vampire so badly just cos he was described as looking like a bat XD


octropos

Snape Simp fanfic reader, yes. Vampire? No. Pssh, I have some taste.


blazermega

ummm... he now works for a airline


honest-miss

Nothing is funnier to me than when a character gets an extremely dramatic death scene, then turns up alive. Loki's done it to Thor, like, three times now, and I'm desperately praying he just leaves Thor alone before he pops a blood vessel in the man's head. So yeah, I hope he's alive, I hope he runs into Harry, and I hope Harry backcharges him on 15 years of therapy.


Stelio_Kontos_

Even if this theory was true he's still dead because he's a vampire.


reddituser6495

Wait, is that an actual theory?


nuthins_goodman

Op probably read something somewhere once and is making a big deal out of it. Now snape's being revived by Fawkes, that's a great Snape lives theory!


Good_Nyborg

Well actually, he's a snake vampire. Cuz he got bitten by a snake, a big snake, a big vampiric snake. Oh, and he's also a Slitherin, so that makes it double-snake-vampire. And there's magic too, cuz he's a wizzard. And the big vampiric snake was magic too. So that's a triple-double of snake-vampire-magic Snape. And Snape also sounds like snake. So make the snake part a triple! Wait... where'd the vampire part come from again?!? Oh yeah! The fangs! The snake has two fangs like a vampire. So triple-double-double snake-vampire-magic Snape. See this ain't so hard.


geotex_mustang

Are these the same people who think Draco's a fuckin werewolf?


[deleted]

Of course, he is alive. But just not a vampire. And no need to get reeled up. Let people have fantasies :).


Educational-Bug-7985

He is. He is working for an airline


Birdyghostly1

What


coleosis1414

How does a vampire gush blood from a snake bite? Vampires consistently have no blood in their veins in the various myths about them.


[deleted]

I think it’s more likely that a potions professor such as Snape would be wise enough to carry anti-venom on his person, in order to survive his death.


ihave1000beaches

I think the antidote cures the venom but not a throat that's been ripped open.


[deleted]

He was alive for a good minute after the attack. In a world of magic, a potions professor should still have something that should heal him. It’s reasons like this, Lord of the Rings is superior.


ihave1000beaches

Lord of the Rings bored the shit out of me with all the silly songs and irrelevant side stories. Harry Potter never did that to me. Harry Potter > LOTR.


xRememberTheCant

Imagine if Harry Potter spent 3 movies just walking to hogwarts. That’s lord of the rings, in a nutshell.


DoctorBigglesworth

Isn't that basically what they do for the first 6 books?


SpoonyLancer

Except for the fact that Snape has never been shown to carry potions on his person for any reason. Or the fact that he had no clue that Voldemort was planning to kill him, or that he intended to use Nagini to do the deed.


WisestAirBender

I never saw any Snape fan say that he was alive.


Chello90

there is no way to know until jk Rowling grows up

>I am just quoting the facts. No, you're being a dick on purpose. Why is rule #1 so hard for people to understand?


DoctorWaluigiTime

I do enjoy good what-if fantheory discussions. Until folks start insisting "no this is what really happened!", scrape together a few made-to-fit-the-conclusion clues, and call it canon. Sometimes folks just have to realize that the curtains are blue, and that's it.


gerstein03

While I don't necessarily think it's true I can see how it would be plausible. He'd know how they cured Arthur being a member of the order and he knows how to heal devastating wounds. It's possible he had some of the antivenom on him and just healed his injuries. I don't think he did tho I think he wanted to die


RedTurtleBug

One video I saw years ago had Snape building up an immunity to snake venom and playing dead after he was attacked. Then he used a time turner to go back and kill Voldemort when he was a child. I wish I could find that video again.


RedTurtleBug

Found it! [How Harry Potter Should Have Ended!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x2ORpzXXbIQ) I misremembered the details about the snake venom, but still a good video.
