Minor spolier, perhaps 








That is possible, James's fiercest attack only came after Snape 
called Lily a 'mudblood' so in defense of a girl he was at least 
attracted to at that point he was much quicker and colder in his 
attack then when he was just doing it for fun. That raises another 
question though, why did James only refer to Lily as 'Evans' and 
never once as Lily? Come to think it did she not only ever call 
James 'Potter'?
