Hogwarts.

Most react with distrust and even rejection. For them, the Snape name is linked to years of favoritism toward Slytherin, unfair punishments, and constant humiliation. Many believe the young woman must share her father's cold and cruel nature, so they avoid her and begin gossiping behind her back as soon as they learn who she is.

The news takes them by surprise. Some are proud that the head of their house's daughter has arrived at Hogwarts, while others are suspicious of her because they'd never heard of her. If even Snape's closest students didn't know this secret, they begin to wonder what else their professor might have kept from them.

Dumbledore had known Severus's daughter since birth and was one of the few people who helped keep her existence a secret. He knew that as long as Voldemort lived, she would be used to manipulate or destroy Snape. Seeing her walk through the gates of Hogwarts filled him with relief, but also with concern. Throughout the tournament, he discreetly observed her movements, not because he doubted her, but because he feared that simply being in the castle would make her a target. He also paid close attention to the reactions of the teachers and students, aware that the greatest danger could come from rumors.

McGonagall always respected Severus's decision to protect his daughter away from England. Upon seeing her arrive, she immediately understands that her presence will disrupt the balance of the school. Although she maintains her usual serious demeanor, she constantly watches to ensure that no student provokes or discriminates against her for being Snape's daughter. Deep down, she feels a certain admiration for Severus, for she never imagined he would sacrifice so many years with his daughter simply to keep her alive.

From the moment he discovers that the Latin American champion is Severus Snape's daughter, Harry feels an immediate aversion to her. He doesn't know her, she's never spoken to him, and she's done absolutely nothing to him, but for him, it's impossible to separate the daughter of the man who for years humiliated him, unjustly accused him, deducted points from Gryffindor, and turned many of his classes into a nightmare. Only one thought occupies his mind: if she's Snape's daughter, she must resemble him. He observes her with constant suspicion, convinced that she's hiding something and that her arrival at the tournament can't be a mere coincidence.

Hermione tries to be more rational than Harry and Ron, but even she can't ignore everything Severus Snape has put them through for years. The mere fact that he concealed the existence of a daughter for sixteen years is unsettling to her. If he was capable of keeping such a massive secret even from Dumbledore—or so she initially believes—what else could he be hiding? Although she avoids making accusations without proof, she maintains a cold and distant attitude toward the young woman. She analyzes her every action, pays close attention to her words, and searches for any information about the Latin American academy she comes from. She isn't willing to trust her blindly; for Hermione, the Snape name carries too much weight to ignore, and until the girl proves who she really is, she considers her someone best kept at arm's length.

From the moment he discovers that the Latin American champion is Severus Snape's daughter, Harry feels an immediate aversion to her. He doesn't know her, she's never spoken to him, and she's done absolutely nothing to him, but for him, it's impossible to separate the daughter of the man who for years humiliated him, unjustly accused him, deducted points from Gryffindor, and turned many of his classes into a nightmare. Only one thought occupies his mind: if she's Snape's daughter, she must resemble him. He observes her with constant suspicion, convinced that she's hiding something and that her arrival at the tournament can't be a mere coincidence.

Draco is utterly stunned to discover that Severus Snape has a daughter. For years he thought he knew the man he considered almost a second father, but he'd never heard a single word about her. Instead of being pleased, he feels a mixture of curiosity and distrust. If Snape was able to keep such a secret even from the Malfoy family, it means there must have been something incredibly important behind it. Although he tries to approach Severus out of respect, it's not out of kindness, but to find out why her existence was hidden for so many years. He doesn't know whether to see her as an ally or as someone who is also hiding things from him.

In front of his students, he remains the same cold, distant, and intimidating professor he's always been. However, when it comes to his daughter, every decision he makes revolves around keeping her safe. He avoids showing too much affection in public so as not to make her an even bigger target, though he can't stop his gaze from constantly following her during the tournament. Whenever someone stares at her too intently, Snape has noticed it before. If he discovers that someone is trying to use or harm her, he will stop acting like a teacher and act solely as a father.

From the moment the young woman enters the castle, Trelawney senses an unusual presence around her. She can't explain what it means, but she feels that her arrival will mark a turning point in the war against Voldemort. Her constant warnings seem absurd to most, though she insists that Snape's daughter's fate is intertwined with Harry Potter's.

Just hearing the surname "Snape" makes Neville's stomach churn. Potions class had always been one of his worst nightmares because of the professor, so he couldn't help but think his daughter must be just as intimidating. He avoids running into her in the corridors and tries not to draw her attention. Deep down, he fears she's inherited her father's cruel and demanding nature.

Ginny observes the situation from a distance. Although she doesn't express the same overt hatred as Harry or Ron, she doesn't feel any sympathy for the young woman either. After everything she's seen Snape do to Gryffindor, and especially to Harry, she finds it hard to believe his daughter is any different. She decides to remain vigilant and not let her guard down.

Luna is one of the few who doesn't show open hostility, but even she senses the tension surrounding the new student. She notices how everyone watches her suspiciously and how the atmosphere changes when she enters a room. Although she doesn't judge her directly, she decides to observe her before drawing any conclusions.

The twins are surprised by the news, but quickly begin making jokes about the fact that Hogwarts' most grumpy professor has a daughter. Even so, beneath the humor lies a lingering distrust. They believe any of Snape's relatives could pose a threat to Gryffindor, so they observe her closely, hoping to discover if she has truly inherited her father's temperament.

For Moody, there is no such thing as coincidence. The fact that a daughter of Severus Snape appears precisely during the Triwizard Tournament seems far too convenient. He doesn't trust her for a second. His magical eye follows her whenever possible, searching for signs of dark magic, curses, imposters, or any suspicious behavior. Although he never finds anything incriminating, it only increases his unease: someone capable of concealing their existence for sixteen years could be hiding much more.

Sprout observes the fear and distrust with which many students greet her. She finds this deeply unfair. She believes no one should have to bear the burden of their parents' reputation and tries to offer her a calm environment whenever possible. She also remains vigilant, fearing that the rejection from some students could escalate into bullying.

As a former dueling champion, Flitwick is intrigued by the magical skills the young woman learned in Latin America. He's interested in the spells and teaching methods of her academy, but he also senses the tension surrounding her. He notices how the professors watch her and realizes that the secret of her existence is far more important than it appears. Even so, he decides to judge her solely on her talent and character.
