How would Snape's character be portrayed in 'snape meets lily afterlife fanfiction'?

In this fanfiction, perhaps Snape finally gets the chance to truly apologize to Lily. He might express all the unspoken feelings and regrets he had when she was alive.

Often, his jealousy is manifested in his actions towards James. He might try to outdo James in academic or magical feats, all because he wants to prove that he is better than James, especially in Lily's eyes. And when it comes to Lily, he may be secretly longing for her attention while trying to hide his feelings because he knows she is with James.

Snape would likely be disdainful towards the Dursleys. He has little patience for Muggles in general, and the Dursleys' mean - spiritedness would not endear them to him. He might use his cold, sarcastic tone on them, leaving them confused and a bit frightened.

In fanfiction, her character could be developed through her relationships. For example, her interactions with Hogwarts professors who knew her parents. They could influence her values and skills. Also, she might have a group of friends with different backgrounds. Through facing difficulties with them, like dealing with a new dark threat in the wizarding world, she could become more courageous and self - reliant. Her character could also be shaped by her own exploration of her family history, which could be full of surprises and revelations.

If he meets Lily in the afterlife, their relationship could become more of a true friendship. Without the complications of James Potter and the war, they could finally understand each other on a deeper level. Snape could let go of his unrequited love and instead cherish the bond of friendship that was always there beneath the surface.

Snape in 'Snape Saves Lily' fanfictions is typically depicted as a hero in a sense. Despite his past associations with the dark side, his love for Lily makes him turn against his former allies. He is shown to be intelligent and resourceful, using his skills in magic, especially his knowledge of potions and dark arts (but using it for good in this case), to save Lily from various threats. He is also portrayed as a very emotional character, his love for Lily being the one pure thing in his otherwise troubled life.

Snape's view of James might not change much at first. He has such deep - seated hatred for James due to their past. But if the fanfiction shows James in a more positive or sympathetic light, he may start to question his long - held beliefs about him, just a little bit.

Snape's character could become more complex. He might start to incorporate some of Merlin's wisdom into his own actions. For example, Merlin was known for his ability to see the good in people, and Snape could start to do the same. Instead of just being bitter and resentful towards Harry, he could start to see Harry as a potential ally in a greater fight, much like Merlin saw the potential in the young knights of Camelot.

There could be other Death Eaters that Snape knew in his life. In the afterlife, they might be there to either confront him about his double - agent status or to seek redemption themselves. And sometimes, characters from Snape's childhood, like his parents or childhood friends, might appear to add more depth to his backstory and his experiences in the afterlife.

The character dynamics in fanfiction involving Snape, Hermione and Lily can be fascinating. Snape's loyalty to Lily can be a driving force. Hermione, being the brilliant witch she is, may question Snape's actions towards Lily. In some fanfics, Hermione might try to get Snape to open up about his past with Lily. This can lead to some intense emotional exchanges. For example, Snape could initially be resistant, but Hermione's persistence might break through his defenses.
