Ask AI: What if Snape never called Lily a Mudblood

If Snape had never insulted Lily by calling her a "Mudblood", several things could have potentially happened differently in the Harry Potter series: 1. Stronger Friendship: Lily may have forgiven Snape's association with future Death Eaters if he hadn't directly insulted her. Their friendship could have remained intact or possibly even grown stronger. 2. A Different Love Story: Some believe that Lily might have developed romantic feelings for Snape if he hadn't hurt her. This could have drastically altered the narrative, making Snape Harry's father instead of James. 3. Harry's Attributes: If Snape and Lily ended up together, Harry would have been different, both in appearance and inherent magical abilities. 4. Snape's Alignment: If Lily had been in his life as a friend or partner, Snape might never have fully become a Death Eater. His alignment in the war might have been clearer from the beginning. 5. Different Sacrifices: Some of the sacrifices made throughout the series, like Snape's for Harry, may not have been necessary. Please keep in mind that these are only possibilities. The actual outcome would greatly depend on the choices of the characters involved. Remember, situation and environment influence but do not dictate choices. It would still depend on the character's values and decisions.

If Snape never called Lily a Mudblood, it's likely that their friendship would have remained intact. This means that Severus would not have joined Voldemort and become a Death Eater, and Lily may not have married James Potter. However, it's impossible to predict with certainty how their relationship would have evolved, so this is just speculation.
