Don't apologise. This post is more exactly what I was asking. :) I was thinking about you three abandoned boys icon when i wrote the post. the snape is half-blood thing is probably bigger than i give it credit for.

I was thinking 'now ootp and the end of dh is where we really find out about snape.' not really counting that snape being half-blood really as big deal.

thanks so much for writing this.
