I love it! And what a wonderful image of Snape as the Wicked Witch of the West, melting away!!

Something I'd like to see in the next book, as well as Ginny's alleged increased role, would be for Ron to come out on top a bit more. He's quite right to be miffed - although they don't mean it, Harry and Hermione constantly outshine him, and I'd love to see him work something crucial out, or do something that saves the day.

Lucy, always a supporter of the underdog.

  A theory that I have been reluctant to share (because it is kind of 
  dumb) is that the many references to Snape's greasy hair are 
  important.  Snape is some sort of creature that cannot tolerate 
  water, so he cannot wash his hair.  He can wipe his skin, but rinsing 
  his hair would be the end of him.  So maybe Voldemort will kill Snape 
  by hosing him down.

  OK, I said it was dumb, but if this happens, I'll be really surprised.
