Admiration and Respect

Professor Snape,

I really admire you, and I’d love for you to give me your opinion on a few things. I am new at Hogwarts, and am excited to learn everything I possibly can about magic.

Right now, the only thing I can think of to like about my placement in Slytherin is that I share a house with you. You’re a good, brave man who has a kind heart and who has done many great things, not the least of which was being the only one to trick the Dark Lord, and you’re a Slytherin, but are wizards like you only the exception there?
