2016-01-14 Celebrities

We lost a hero, a gem, the person who slayed a million hearts. 

Alan Rickman was a pot of gold. He played legendary characters, but one of his most remarkable work was

bringing the Severus Snape to life. 

We lost him to Cancer on January 14, 2016. 

Severus Snape seemed to be a very cold character in the Harry Potter books. Until the end, when tables turn,

and it turns out if there was anyone who saved the day- it wasn't Harry Potter alone. It was Severus Snape. One

of the finest written characters in the history and one of the most exceptional portrayal ever. 

There is no Severus Snape without Alan Rickman. 

We bid our last good-bye to the man himself by reliving the most cherished moments of Severus Snape from

Harry Potter. 

1. Meeting Harry Potter for the first time!

Mr. Potter! *Snape's Pitch* Snape's first words directly spoken to Harry Potter, "Potter! What would I get if I

added powdered root of asphodel to an infusion of wormwood?"

2. Potions Classes... Turn to page, 364.

All his classes. Severus Snape must have been cold, but he was one hell of a teacher!

3. When Snape makes Harry see the truth and tells him to not be blindsided by emotions.

Severus Snape says, "Control your emotions. Discipline your mind!"

4. When it turned out that Snape is in fact the Half Blood Prince.

"You dare use my own spells against me, Potter? Yes. I'm the Half-Blood Prince."

5. When all this while you hated the man for being another trouble in Harry's life.

6. And then...

He gives Harry, all his life's memory. The moment that no potterhead will ever forget.

7. Snape met Lily when they were very, very young.

He fell in love with her then and there. Lily's sister accused of her being abnormal. Snape comforted her, told her

that there is nothing wrong with her.

8. Bullied in school for being the kind hearted dork that he was.

James Potter was making Lily fall in love with her. The woman Snape was secretly in love with. There was no

fighting James and now Harry could see why Snape hated his father so much.

9. And then when he was to choose sides at the time of war, Lily was unsafe.

10. He reaches to find her dead. And he swears to protect anything that is a part of Lily.

Harry Potter, the boy who lived. Harry survived every worst situation possible, because someone very poweful

was watching over him.

11. Losing Lily forever led him to be the dark man that we always thought he was.

12. But secretly, this man was saving the day, everyday.

13. When Snape's Patronus was same as Lily. The Always moment.

When Dumbledore sees Snape’s Patronus and asks if he still loves Lily Potter. And he says, "Always"

14. When Harry honored him by acknowledging for a fact that he was the bravest

man ever.

15. In the honor of the greatest man who brought this lovable character to life, let's raise our wands.

Alan Rickman, Severus Snape is nothing without you.

16. Long Live Alan Rickman. You will always be in our hearts.

Always.
