I have seen link where it has already been discussed by lets start with some valid point to prove why a friend or foe.
I am not really comfortable calling him friend even though he helped harry on many occasions but it was projected as if he saved so that DD continue to have trust in him...now with DD gone and if he really want to move to good side then he may help Harry to get rid of LV....but we all know how much he despise Harry. But here is what JRK has to say
- Severus Snape has been an important and enigmatic character throughout the books, as his true loyalty has always remained unclear. It is to be anticipated that as a surviving major character, his loyalty will be settled in the final confrontation of the book. [36][37]
- Questioner: There's an important kind of redemptive pattern to Snape.
- Rowling: He, um, there's so much I wish I could say to you, and I can't because it would ruin. I promise you, whoever asked that question, can I just say to you that I'm slightly stunned that you've said that and you'll find out why I'm so stunned if you read Book Seven. That's all I'm going to say.
