| I don't think that the Snape-hates-all-Gryffindors thing sufficiently explains his constantly singling Neville out. Again, my theory is essentially that Snape had figured out that the Chosen One would be either Harry or Neville, and spent the rest of his life wishing that Riddle had gone after the Longbottoms instead. And he took it out on Neville like he took out his issues with James on Harry. |
