Professor Snape,

Over the past few weeks, on numerous occasions, I have attempted to make a love potion. I am aware the effects of a love potion are not that of love, only obsession and lust. However, it is one potion I have aspired to perfect for many years but have unfortunately been successful. I am aware that a name you went by was “the half blood prince” and that in a textbook, during your youth, wrote tips and orders next to spells for them to be made easier, which Harry came across. I was hoping you would help me and give me the correct ingredients and instructions for a love potion as I have come across many different instructions.

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. I can’t wait to learn Potions, so I can learn how to bottle fame, brew glory, and even stopper death. However, I have a bit of a problem.

The Sorting Hat put me in Slytherin. As you surely know, that house has a terrible reputation for producing evil wizards. 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?

Dear Professor Snape,

Regards. I needed your help with something. My mother is skilled at Legilimency and she is one person from whom I cannot hide anything. All my Occlumency fails at her stare and she gets to know easily if something is wrong. Can you please offer me some advice?

Dear Professor Snape,

How did you get so good at potions? You have real skill, how does one go from Neville Longbottom level to yours?

Hello Professor.

I’m just wondering what your favourite food is? Because mine is souls.

Dear Professor Snape,

Since you know a great deal about potions I thought that perhaps you would be able to answer a question I have about veritaserum. What are the restrictions concerning the use? Is it allowed to use it in hearings? If not, why? Wouldn’t it be a great way to make sure that the right people were convicted? When Voldemort disappeared the first time and people said that they had been imperiused, howcome The Ministry had such trouble sorting out the liars?

Dear Professor Snape,

I understand your hatred of Harry Potter, but why do you favor Draco Malfoy so much?
