Very Odd HP Dream

[Amanda]

Okay, you fanfic loons.

I don't read fanfic. But I do participate in chat and catch the references,
and they must be sinking in, as witness the one and only HP-dream I've ever
had, which happened last night....

In my dream, Book 5 had come out, and I was reading it. I was both delighted
to get more of Snape's backstory, and upset that it sounded like a cheap
novel....Snape had found out about a trap laid for Harry, to expose and
humiliate him, and there was nothing he could do to prevent it (although he
tried) and because of his past, when the inevitable happened, he was there
to support Harry. The trap? Harry and Draco had a thing going, and the Evil
Powers had arranged it so that Harry would be caught in flagrante delecto
and exposed (literally and figuratively), etc., with all the bad publicity
for him and the school and that sort of thing. [I don't think Draco knew
this was in the offing.] And Snape was sympathetic and felt for Harry
because the very same thing had happened to him, he'd had a thing going with
some male student (I don't remember which one, sorry, guys) and he'd been
publicly shamed and ridiculed. [There were lots more Significant Details in
the dream-text, like there always are, things with loads of meaning at the
time, that I cannot now recall, but this was the gist.]

So, am I on some psychic wavelength from someone? Has my subconscious
plugged into some slash frequency? Or have I just maxed out on weird Snape
theories? [Note complete absence of any vampiristic traits in dream-Snape.
So there.]

If this intrigues anyone and hasn't been done yet, you can have it. I'm just
mad that I woke up before I finished the book.
