Cassie:
I noticed that too. One part that really stood out for me was when Harry
said "No, that's your job" referring to finding out what LV was saying to the DEs 
and Snape said "Yes, that is my Job." (I lent my copy of the book to 
someone...so I can't give an exact page number/quote)  

A normal Snape reaction would probably've been "That's none of your business Potter."    

I don't know if Respect is the right word though. I think they understand 
each other a bit better though.  



I don't think I read the same book ya'll did!  I saw NO respect
on Snape's part.
