But man, I remember that party at the bookstore being so fun. I'm a little late for the 16 year exact, but I found the sticker today.

I remember the counterpart, “Snape will betray!”

It totally did! I tried to find it where I thought I might have stuck it, but it was gone. I did find these gems though...

Snape is a very bad man 👀

So there was this completely unhinged Russian translation of Harry Potter (thankfully, not the most popular one) that completely butchered the names. Severus Snape was renamed to "Злодеус Злей" - literally, "Villainous Evil". Was real fun in the last book, especially the epilogue

Wow, there's a throwback! Was there also a "disloyal" version?
