History repeats itself, in so very many ways.
At first glance Harry Potter and Severus Snape have very little in common other than black hair. If one looks at their family lives, friends, and personalities, another entirely different story is told.
Both had less than ideal home lives as children.
Tobias Snape.
Vernon Dursly. Both befriended a scarily intelligent (a raven in lion's skin) muggleborn.
Lily Evans.
Hermione Granger.
Both fell for a vivacious redhead.
Lily Evans.
Ginny Weasly.
Both are more alike that they know.
And I can remember so very clearly a scene eerily similar.
A boy, bidding a possible last farewell to his dog. For both it was the last.
The major difference?
One almost lost everything.
The other did.
