What a frustrating arsehole, Severus is. Enough of a child prodigy in the dark arts to not only be accepted into the Slytherin elite, but to end up favored by the Dark Lord himself. He always did as he was ordered - but only what he wanted, outside of that. (Seriously, Voldemort never ended up so much as noticing it was Severus's request to spare Lily that got him killed the first time, just imagine the kind of shit he got away with.)
