An interesting look at the context of the scene we were given. And what an ironic way for Snape to acquire the headmaster-ship, in a way that he could not possibly be proud of. But your story points up one of the many annoying continuity errors in canon: Snape could not have been made headmaster until after Voldemort's people had taken over the Ministry--and that was four days after Harry left Privet Drive. So that discussion with Dumbledore's portrait could not have taken place in the headmaster's office--and Phineas Nigellus tells us that the headmasters can't leave unless they have portraits elsewhere. And JKR actually says that this was the portrait in the headmaster's office. Sigh. |

Nice! I love these stories that fill us in on Snape's thoughts and feelings. Nice usage of the Canon text. |
