A Fist Full of Galleons
(#) HJHOWE 2009-04-27
Like most double agents snape is playing both sides for his own survival/gain. If he's trying to lull Harry into a misstep/trap I don't think it will work.
The ferret will overstep himself. He has no idea that Harry has changed so much and will step on his own johnsonA Fist Full of Galleons

Nice use of the word Spin though it might be unintentional. To spin the news is to make it better or worse as you see fit.
Funny how he left out crucial information like that HE is responsible for the death of Harry's parents?
All in all however a very nice chapter and very nice conversation with Snape.
Just remember, useful idiots are still idiots.A Fist Full of Galleons

As much as I hate saying this, the blame isn't solely Snape's. Had Peter not betrayed the Potters, they might never have been found. He is as much responsible for their deaths as Snape is.A Fist Full of Galleons

Catering to the anti-Ron crowd, I see, viz a Ron who forgets to bathe!! I was happily reading along until I got to there - the idea of Luna partially filling the Ron slot in the Trio was neat, I thought - but the aromatic!Ron observation seemed rather corny and dropped the tone of the story in caricature mode for a while.
The idea of Lily having equal credit in the revised potions material in the Prince's book is clever and unique, I reckon; something I've never come across before.
Harry claiming to have power equal to the dark lord ... back when he (Harry) was a baby?! Wow. That's hard to credit, you know. And anyway, a baby wouldn't have the wherewithal to direct that power in its defence anyway?A Fist Full of Galleons

Brad -- sorry, but aromatic!Ron seems quite in character, a phase many such boys go throughA Fist Full of Galleons
