Laura:

Remus could have avoided the problem if he'd known what Neville was 
going to say, but he didn't.  So once he'd asked Neville the 
question, he had to go forward with the exercise.  Unless you're 
suggesting that Remus knew perfectly well what Neville would say and 
set him up...I don't believe that myself but all you ESE!Lupin fans 
will love it.
