Ah, the eternal Snape paradox. Snape loved Lily with a passion that rivaled a Niffler’s love for gold. But Harry? Harry is the living, breathing reminder that Lily chose James—the guy who bullied Snape in school. Imagine looking at your ex’s kid every day, and the kid has your ex’s eyes but your bully’s hair. That’s a recipe for bitterness, not hugs.
Plus, Snape is a terrible communicator. The man could brew Amortentia but couldn’t say “I’m sorry I was a jerk.” Instead, he channeled his love into protecting Harry from a distance while being as mean as possible. It’s like a cat ignoring you, then saving you from a falling chandelier.

Why Doesn’t the Muggle Government Know About Wizards?
Oh, they do in some way—they just pretend they don’t. The Statue of Secrecy is a magical agreement that keeps wizards hidden. But think about it: how many “weather anomalies” and “gas leaks” have you heard about near Hogwarts? It’s a cover-up bigger than the one about why your socks keep disappearing.
Also, Muggles are really good at ignoring magic. We call it “wishful thinking” or “that’s just a cool special effect.” If you saw a flying car, would you call the Ministry, or assume you needed a new prescription? Exactly.
