Personally I'd rather just roll with it and troll him by agreeing with everything he says, but this is a lot better than sucking up so hard Snape dies in the vacuum.

If you'd rather do something else, why not make a write in for it? There should be plenty of time to rally one. Hell, here's some options for the lazy...

[] Troll him by agreeing with everything he says.

[] "You know, you remind me of my uncle. Perhaps you can answer a question I've always wondered about - why do some adults feel the need to bully small children who they know can't fight back?"
 
. . . So... let me get this straight... after voting to go and meet Snape, whether the IC knew he was or not... for the express purpose of making Snape not hate us. While, it is a bit sycophantic, this conversation piece, is meant to encourage memories of our character's mother. (though IC its probably fishing for information on our mother) While simultaneously letting Snape know that we don't know about any of this, and we were just looking at the pretty, shinny, cause we haven't seen it's like before. None of this however, means anything to you... (the voters whom are voting ignore) Your knee jerk response is to proclaim you don't want the IC sucking Snape's dick, and therefore, instead of coming up with something original, or helpful, you decide to simultaneously troll Snape, and the quest, by choosing to act all meek and let the insults stand. Which Enjou just pointed out, isn't really trolling Snape, just the quest.

But I never voted to meet Snape, I didn't want him mind reading us and learning about our power.

Question, if he does end up mind reading us and discovering the power would you rather have him dislike us or like us? Because if he likes us the issue of him learning about it won't be that terrible, if he finds out about it and dislikes us on the other hand...

We had 32 votes, specifically, for going to Slug & Jiggers Apothecary with the knowledge that we were going to meet Snape. Eight for Olivander's, one for Madam Malkin's, and one for a cake shop. You may not have supported the vote, but the group, together, voted for this option. Suddenly, we have nine people wanting our IC to act in the same manner I was telling people our character would realistically act, by standing there and taking Snape's insults. So, instead of us "sucking Snape's fat c@(k" like those voting to let it stand are claiming we whom are trying to get him to not hate us are voting for... you're essentially voting that we pull our pants down to our ankles, turn around, bend over, spread our checks, and ask him "Please be gentle, it's my first time being ass raped." Which is what you're advocating by suggesting that our character isn't allowed to stand up for himself, or try to defuse the situation by finding common ground. And claiming it trolls Snape for us to just let it stand, when I fail to see how standing there meekly, shying away from the mean, and skinnier Vernon clone, trolls the person.

Legilimency != mind reading. Assuming this quest does go with the fanon interpretation of Snape using legilimency all the time, it still wouldn't necessarily result in him knowing Harry has powers. To come across the gamer powers, he'd have to find a memory of Harry using those powers. Considering Harry has significantly more memory of his life without powers than with them, he's statistically less likely to chance over them.
 
Some numb nuts are saying that the vote to ask Snape about our mother, is us voting for our character to suck Snape's dick. And is therefore the reason they are voting to let the insults stand without contest. I will admit to being a bit miffed that these same people are voters that just ten or so pages back were telling me that our character doesn't act that way in the books, and then turn around, and advise our character to act specifically like the abused child the character would logically be. So, mostly I'm just ranting at them to make up their minds... Either he is an abused child, and we play the abused child, or he isn't, and we play a moderately adjusted young boy, that can think for himself...

Eh? Ernie was one of the few who openly declared that he believed Harry about Voldemort.

He was one of twelve to qualify for NEWT potion classes. Managed a full patronus and got into NEWT defence. Then he joined the resistance at Hogwarts against the death eaters. How is he the worst?

Smith is an ass, but every house has those. Smith can't be said to define Hufflepuff any more than Pettigrew defines Gryffindor.

I don't said they are bad people,Ernie is very diligent student,Smith is athletic,that good for Hufflepuff,they just rub Harry wrong way in personality.

First off, sucking up isn't sucking his dick. That's disgusting.

Second, the reason I'm saying suck-up with regards to that vote is not the faintest bit of it looks sincere. Your "contest" to the insults is basically "I'm sorry about the state of my clothing. Pity me. I love your subject I know nothing about and am making a rash jump that you're the potions professor and I want to learn from you." That's not a contest, that's letting him win and then kowtowing to him. How is that proving you aren't a dunderhead anyway?

Third, I'm not trolling the quest. I was willing to give Snape a chance, then he reminded me that he's a petty whiner who can't get his head out of the past. So my vote is basically "fuck it, ignore him" instead of pandering to him when, let's face it, he dislikes us as a living reminder of his failures (which, being fair to Snape, is totally understandable) and that's not going to change just because we mention our mom and that we want to learn from him. So I'd rather we just ignore him. Also the trolling Snape thing wasn't to actually and legitimately agree with him. It was to face him with the same amazing wit and faux sincerity that brought us "The poor toilet's never had anything as horrible as your head down it — it might be sick". Also, I know ignoring him isn't trolling him which is where the "I'd rather troll him...but" part comes in.

Fourth, the reason I'm not making a new write in is because that would split the votes of people who don't want the same vote as you, which would have the same effect as voting for the vote I don't want to win. Sure, it's possible it could win, but a bit too unlikely for me to go for it.

So, yeah, that's why I voted as I did. You can call me numb nuts all you want I don't really care, and honestly all it makes me do is care that much less about what you have to say.
 
Well,there are fandom that hate Snape,but this is quest.

Try to pick fight will give us penalty in relationship or Snape give us detention period that will lose of our free time.Think more about what we will lose if pick a fight with him.

Why should Snape's opinion of Harry matter?
Will he fail Harry in potion?
Will he stop giving Harry detention if Harry does stupid things?

Letting things slide is likely the wise choice as Harry will realize that others opinion of him does not matter. Harry knows that he's not a dunderhead. That should be enough.

Professor Asshole, now with slightly less ass!
  • Threadmarks
    • After a couple of seconds consideration on how to respond you look away from the greasy haired man and reply, a bit more meekly than you'd intended.

    "I apologize for the state of my clothing, sir, but my Aunt Petunia never got me anything of my own. She only ever gave me my cousin's old clothes."

    This prompts a frown from the dark man, accompanied by him murmuring in his soft voice, "Petunia? But she hates..."

    [Alert:] +20 relationship with Severus Snape.

    Seeing that you've gotten him thinking you decide to press on. "If you knew my father, did you also know my mother, sir? Hagrid says she liked learning about potions, so I'd very much like to learn more about the subject, though I only just learned of magic not too long ago and I haven't had a chance to read the textbook, so I don't know much about them. From your apparent expertise, I'd wager you are the potions professor. I'm looking forward to learning everything you have to teach."

    "Nobody likes a suck-up, Potter." Snape replies with a sneer, almost glaring at your face. But once his eyes meet yours he abruptly looks away, sneer fading.

    [Alert:] -5 relationship with Severus Snape.

    "But yes. I did know your mother. Truly one of the best of us, and her loss is one we all regret." He turns away and starts to look over the books you'd selected, currently being carried by Hagrid. After a few minutes he starts toward the door, his robes billowing behind him. "I would suggest, if you are truly interested in potions and not just being a suck-up, that you pick up the books Potion Ingredients and Their Reactions by Fimblewight. Maybe I'll have one student this year that won't melt their cauldron."

    [Alert:] +20 relationship with Severus Snape. Relationship with Severus Snape now neutral.

    This leaves you and Hagrid standing almost alone in the shop, with just the man behind the counter there with you. After a few minutes of everyone standing around silently Hagrid speaks up, turning toward the man behind the counter, "Well! We jus' need a basic first year kit. An' I guess that book the professor mentioned."

    Once everything is acquired and paid for, costing you another twenty galleons, you and Hagrid head out of the shop.

    "Hagrid, why did that professor seem to dislike me at first? And comparing me to my father... I don't even know my father, so how am I supposed to avoid acting like someone I don't know?"

    Looking decidedly uncomfortable, Hagrid takes a couple minutes to respond. "Ah... Well... Back durin' their school-days yer father an' his friends were pranksters. Not even the Weasley twins have been able to compete with 'em yet. An' Professor Snape was one of their favorite targets, on account o' him bein' Slythrin. Now, don' get me wrong. Slytherin are a nasty lot. But not all of 'em are bad."

    After a couple more minutes of silence the large man abruptly speaks up again. "Listen, Harry. I got somethin' I gotta go get. Why don' you go an' get your wand, since that will probably take a while. Or I suppose you could go somewhere else."

    After some thought you decide to go to...

    [ ] Ollivanders(Wands, nobody)

    [ ] My father was a prankster, huh? To Gambol and Japes!(Joke supplies, the Weasley twins.)

    [ ] Quality Quidditch Supplies(Brooms and Quidditch Gear, the Malfoys.)

    [ ] Magical Menagerie(Pets and Pet Supplies, Percy, Aurthur, and Molly Weasley)

    [ ] 2nd Hand Brooms(Brooms, Ron)

    [ ] Madam Malkin's Robes for all Occasions(Robes, Neville)

    [ ] Tucker's Trunks(Nobody)
