To be honest, I like most portrayals of young Snape. Character-wise, I can love him being a snarky bastard, being manipulative or mischievous, or even a puppy-petting sweet thing whose true ambitions are to eradicate poverty or something.
As far as older Snape, I like the sweetness toned down on some, but I like hints and flashes of it. We know he was an old softie now, so it's not that much of a stretch sometimes.
I love bottom Snape and top!Snape. I love raped!Snape, but not rapist!Snape.
Snape dialogue is very hard to perfect. I hate the use of too many $5 words. I think that makes both Snape and the writer sound pretentious.
