Snape and Sirius: so deserve each other. (Not in the pairing sense, mind you. I never could see the hate sex. Sometimes dislike really is dislike and doesn't equal sexual tension.)
Re: people blaming Lily, aside from the whole "character x responsible fore character y's choices through his life" illogic what baffles me is that the whole premise of their accusations - that Snape would never have become a Death Eater if Lily had remained his friend - overlooks that Lily and Severus did remain friends through FIVE HOGWARTS YEARS. And he still simultanously hung out with the future Death Eater brigade, fanboy'd Voldemort and started to spout racist nonsense. Which leads me rather to believe that if Lily hadn't broken up with him, he'd have continued to believe it's perfectly fine to become a Death Eater and look, his favourite person in the world is okay with this, too, since she doesn't say anything.
