Haven’t watched this channel in a while. Clicked on a video only to get jumpscared by J’s mustache.

while Diagon Alley in Universal studios my friend and I were trying to decide what to do next. Instead of Rock Paper Scissors we settled it with a game of Snape Neville Nigini. Snape gives Neville detention, Neville decapitates Nigini, Nigini eats Snape.

Snape theoretically could have killed someone, but later had remorse for it. Having remorse is said to be a way to repair a broken soul.

I DID MY WATCHING! 12 YEARS OF IT! ON KZfaq! Congrats on a dashing dozen years of success!

The biggest difference between Luna and Snape is that Luna has healthy models of love (her parents) and that allows her to develop healthy relationships.

I don't think Voldemort has a defined rank or hierarchy for any of his Death Eaters. There is no actual "right hand DE". At most, he just has DEs that he values more than the others at any given time and they can fall from grace or rise in value according to his own whims. After all, Voldemort only trusts himself, and he doesn't show any real care or regard for anyone, except maybe Nagini. Even when he killed Snape, Voldemort saw it as a necessary sacrifice to gain mastery of the Elder Wand and while he claimed to regret doing so, it was only in the context of losing a "useful tool".

Do a neville chosen one year 2 PLEEEEEEEEEESEEEEESE

I just got a theory in my head... and it seems kinda obvious. Of course, Snape wasn't happy about Harry seeing the memory, but what if he refused to teach him occlumancy, to conceal the secrets he knew in case it would happen again? It seems reasonable. What if Harry saw a memory of Snape spitting out the prophecy and begging for Lily's life? Can you imagine?!! Sirius might not have died! But I wonder what else would happen...

that theory that heat treats Neville horribly because the prophecy could and should have been about him is 100% my new head canon

Definitely is. Forcing you to relieve your worst memories must be a nightmare 😨😨😨😨

A name of the wind podcast would be amazing. Not sure if they mean the same style but I'd be fine with a read along with theories or just rants about different theories. I had to do a podcast assignment once and recorded talking with my friend about our head canons

Nah, Snape is held in such esteem because he brought Voldemort the ONLY thing that could ever threaten his immortality. Knowledge of the prophesy that will undo him. Wormtail bringing Voldemort back is nothing more than a stepping stone of destiny. Snape brought Voldemort the SUBVERSION of destiny. The ONLY prize in the world worth taking. The one thing in the world that could ever stop him.

Thank you for the shoutouts and also THANK YOU for how you expand on these theories. You take them in even more interesting directions and build on them. The fact he graduated a year before the potion was made BLEW MY MIND. Always love hearing your takes, and delighted to have helped with this one!

anyone else hear a constant hum during the video. Like there is some kind of motor running in the background?

Happy 12 years.

Also, I would ABSOLUTELY LOVE a Name of the Wind podcast!!

When is this Better Help contract going to end??

I feel like there is strong evidence that Voldemort himself made the potion. He caught Slughorn’s eye even despite being an orphan with no family name, and while he was gifted at a lot magic Slughorn would have seen his potion skills the most. Additionally, Voldemort was fine talking about dark magic with the potions professor, almost like he had done something adjacent to dark magic with him. Other crux protectors like Beatrix were trusted, but had no extra special treatment. Additionally, the cave is implied to be the hidden location no one even his most trusted followers know. Dumbledore door talks about how he discovered it, and Snape who tells him everything said nothing about it nor that this potion existed. And Snape would have been prompted, Dumbledore and Snape were plotting particularly about crux’s that year. He could have not told Harry about Snape’s info, but he does seem particularly uncertain about what they will find in the cave. Editted after rereading Kreacher’s story: Black had to replace the potion like he did the locket, because Black got the locket out by drinking it. And it is only said to refill if it isn’t comsumed. So either Regulus brewed a replacement or it refills by a different mechanism then it does when not consumed. However, Kreacher also poses a second hole since he says he was used to test the potion, which is how he tells Voldemort where the cave is. Meaning first of all it probably was brewed in the cave, because otherwise why bring Kreacher to the hiding spot rather than a Snape’s cauldron. Secondly, Voldemort was testing it, with the horcrux there himself. Whoever was there needed to know about the locket, the cave location, and sit there while Kreacher was tested to find the right potency. That is even before you consider the enchanted boat rules implying only one adult wizard was suppose to be able to enter at a time. I just doesn’t make sense to have snape in your secret cave and then him having no idea what the potion was for. I mean clearly Kreacher pokes holes in Voldemort to some extent, Like how does the potion refill even when consumed. But pokes more holes in Snape making it. Another edit: Interestingly the pensieve and drink of despair have a lot of descriptive similarities. One liquid is green and one is silver. They are both in stone basins, though the pensive is described pretty ornately. They both cause the user to revisit memories, and though the drink of despair requires drinking even approaching it Harry feels the negative emotions. It is almost liked a poisoned pensieve. Needing to test the potion in the cave almost implies the potion is native to the cave, perhaps not brewed at all, same way the pensieve was discovered with the hogwarts built around it and not made by the founders or any headmaster.

Will you be doing a Kahoot quiz on this channel soon? It's been ages.

Ok so this issue also appeared in your inside out 2 theory video and it might just be a problem because I have a bass sensitive sound system. But whenever the mic is active there's a constant low frequency noise. It disappears whenever you insert clips or effects where your mic is turned off then reappears when you start talking again and it goes through the whole video. You might wanna look into this since it makes the whole video really hard to listen to.👀

I think Snape was most worried teaching occlumency to Harry because when Harry penetrated his mind he was most concerned with Harry finding out dumbledore's secret that didn't come out till deathly hallows 2. If Harry had found out at that stage, and Voldemort would have read Harry's mind l, it would have ruined all their plans and exposed Snape to Voldemort of his true allegiance

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="690">11:30</a> I would absolutely love it if you guys started a Name of the Wind podcast!! I have read those books so many times now and i pick up on new secrets every re-read. It would be very interesting if you guys did a similar thing as Through the Griffin Door for these books so that we can hear what you guys picked up on or what we might have missed! Anyway, congrats on the 12 years! I absolutely love watching this channel and can't wait for more (don't know how to feel about J's mustache tho 😂)

I've been here about 5 years. It's a long story, but when I started as a fan, I was in a dark place. Things are so much better now. I think of you guys and this community as "being there" for me when what I needed most was to rediscover my passions and personal interests. Thank you. Happy 13 🎉

Yes! I want a name of the wind podcast! I love those books!

Dude more Snape videos is ALWAYS awesome! Honestly I think Voldy likes him so much is because snape is powerful, witty, smart and most of all, loyal! At least that’s what he obviously wants Voldy to think… feels like he can push all his other death eaters around but not Snape!

I've been listening to the Stephen Fry version of the audiobooks and I've gotta say that it's given me a different perspective of the characters. I'm really liking Goblet of Fire. He really gets into the characters! I like Jim Dale too, but it's fun to hear a different interpretation.

Happy Anniversary!!🎉 Only found you guys a little while ago but I've been loving the content!

Happy Anniversary! loved this channel for over 5 years!

I would love a name of the wind podcast! Please do!

Wow J! The mustache is on point!

Nice video! :)

I’ve been watching the channel for about 3 years now, can’t believe it’s your 12th anniversary! Congrats 🎉 and thanks for all the great times!

Happy anniversary!!! Glad I discovered and have now watched this channel for well over 6 years! Thanks for all the videos!

YES YES YES please please please do a Kingkiller podcast!! It's my favorite modern fantasy series, and I've LOVED your theory videos in it so far! Not enough people are talking about it!

It's crazy to me, a long time fan, that this is they're 12 year anniversary!

Kind reminder, because the last couple of videos have given me a huge headache. Don't forget to record room noise and remove it from the sound during editing! The humming during all the J clips in the last few videos is painful

I’ve been loving through the griffin door 😊 and happy anniversary!!

Thought. What was Voldy doing with the necklace between when he made it in the late 40sish to when it went into the potion in 1979? Was Voldy just walking around with a locket for like 30 years?

Happy 12 years, guys! Keep up the great content! Also, Hercule Poirot would be proud of that 'stache

Happy Anniversary guys!!! Love Snape, kinda the underdog story. Thanks for this.

Haven't been here all 12, but holy cow! Happy 12 year anniversary!!! Thank you for your content!!

Your mustache is comin in nice, my friend!

You NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED to resume your sims series. I’ve been asking since y’all ended. It if you didn’t see it I would watch it.

I've always thought Peter Pettigtrew was ranked so low because Voldemort KNOWS he only returned out of fear, not loyalty. I doubt Peter is skilled at occlumency

Happy Birthday to the channel! :D

Happy anniversary, I love watching videos on this channel 😊

Happy 12 yrs! Glad to be along for the ride. Your Snape impression is my favorite after the Chudley Cannon song. 😂

Great video as always. The only thing: There is a humming in the background that you might want to investigate for the next vids :)

You did your channel! Twelve Years of it - On KZfaq! Congratulations Brothers! X

Congratulations on the 12 year anniversary!!! Love the channel and love the content!!! 12 more years!!!!!!

12 years?!? Congrats! I’ve been watching for half that, which I find insane. You were one of the first KZfaqrs I watched, so raise a glass of fire whiskey to another dozen years to come

lovin the Stach J. and Congrats on 12years, I enjoy the content very much. Have a great day.

Happy Anniversary!!!!🎉❤

I’m totally here for a Name of the Wind Podcast

I can’t believe you guys got Tom Selleck RIGHT off the set of Magnum P.I. To do this episode!! So exciting!!!

That mustache is majestic. It must be maintained at all costs!

12 years is insane!!! I've been watching you since I was 5 😂

.... why has no one else freaked out about the Name of the Wind podcast ... um yes please

"Reliving your worst memories"? Great, so Snape feeds me that potion every night when I try to go to sleep

Congratulations on reaching the teenage years! Tripped across you about four years back and almost always enjoy your content and presentation. Thought today's evidence was a tad circumstantial though. Incidentally: really enjoying Through the Griffin Door. Keep up the great work.

J's 'Snape voice', iconic

Happy Carlinversary!!!

100% name of the wind podcast

Think I’ve been following this channel for about 7-8 years. To see the growth of you two as individuals has been an absolute privilege. Not someone who sounds off in the comments too frequently, but I did want to say THANK YOU for keeping imagination alive ❤🪄

❤ Awesome as always thanks guys never miss a video appreciate all the years of hard work love all you guys at SCB ALWAYS!

Loving the stache j! 🫡🫡🫡

I'm surprised he didn't mention the HIGHLY edited potion for Euphoria. When asked to make something fun, Harry looks for something that had a lot of notes from the Half-blood Prince. This is the very opposite of the drink of despair, showing Snape was investigating potions that manipulate your mood!

Happy 12 years! Great theory video!

Would Voldy ask a rookie Death Eater to create something THAT important when he trusts no one? And wouldn’t Snape tell Dumbledore that he made such a powerful potion for Voldy? Seems like a big deal to make a unique potion for Tom and not think that’s important. Also, Muffliato, Levicorpus and Liberocorpus are hand-written in the potions book but the only one that’s actually accredited to him is Sectumsempra. Meaning he could’ve learned of those spells and written them down to practice. It’s certainly a lot of fun thinking about the events of the first wizarding war, though.

voldemort did not invent the potion that revived him , he describes it as "- it is an old piece of dark magic, the potion that revived me tonight -"

Happy 12 year anniversary!! It's mine and my boyfriends 12 year anniversary today too!! ❤❤ anniversary twins 😊

I'm aware it was a throw away comment, but I would love a name of the wind podcast!

I would love if you could add some kind of visual timeline onscreen when you do these kind of analysis because I really struggle to keep track of all the different years/dates so i kinda lose the plot

J's mustache really is majestic! I wish I had such a good mustache!

"Perfoming a sold out podcast tour"- awesome drop but you guys actually deserve it.

Congratulations guys love that I found this channel

I’ve been watching y’all for a good 7 out of 12 years, and y’all have never been boring or lost your touch. I love you both and all the content you’ve made. Have a great lucky 13th year of SuperCarlinBrothers, and I’ll see you in another life brother. P.S. Jay congrats on the mustache.

Even if we take this to be true, voldemort doesn't need to make him the second in command based on this contribution. If we assume nobody knows about horcruxs, voldemort would just ask (demand) snape or anyone to make him a potion with specific attributes. This is likely any typical assignment they would get from voldemort. The prestige could come from how well it works, not the creation of the said potion. At least, that's what i think.

Congratulations on 12 years!❤❤❤❤

NAME OF THE WIND PODCAST!!! Absolutely yes!

Year 13?! Wow that's awesome and kinda scary considering I've been here since year 3! Congrats and appreciations to you and your team and heres to many more🥂

missed opportunity to cut in sirius black saying "TWELVE YEARS"

Thanks for the entertainment! Hoping for 12 more years🎉

A big YES to a Kingkiller Chronicle podcast!

Isn't he too young for that? Like, wasn't it already there when Regulus went there? Also, wouldn't it have been there since the beginning? ❤

I want to know who refilled the basin after Regulus takes the locket. It doesn't refill after Dumbledore drinks it. A couple of comments on this theory: What was protecting the Horcrux between its creation in the 1940s, and the late 1970s? Was it just in the cave with Inferi, or somewhere else? Dumbledore states that the potion was to incapacitate the drinker, not kill them, so Voldemort would be able to question them. Without the potion, there would be no need to approach the water, and so the Inferi would be avoided. Even if Snape didn't know what the potion was to be used for...he still knew he had created such a potion, and could warn Dumbledore that he might encounter such a terrible potion at some point.

12 years already I still remember when Ben said he was going to go full-time in the aquarium business as an April Fool's joke

Congratulations guys!!

Happy anniversary!

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="795">13:15</a> oh you should’ve put the “oBvioUslY” clip 😂

That stache is absolutely magnificent 👌🏻

Hey happy anniversary! Most tubers don't make it past 5!

Haven't been watching for 12 years but doing my best to get caught up!

Happy anniversary been gone for a while but chose today to come back to check out Snape

Y'know, at first I thought J's mustache was a little weird, but it's really grown on me. I hope he keeps it

Yes please make a kings killer podcast!!! I need this in my life

Happy Anniversary!

HEY BROTHER!❤❤❤❤❤

Lately a lot of SCB videos have a very annoying background noise. It doesn't seem to be in the intro so it's probably something the mic picks up. It might be my audio setup that makes the humming sound so clear, but it might be something to look into. Respect for the moustache!

Congratulations on your 13th anniversary 🥳
