Del :
I'm not sure I understand what you mean. My original proposal was that
someone, either Lucius or Snape, is some kind of Metamorphagus and is
now playing both roles. But of course, he would play each role in the
appropriate "costume" ie body. I commented on the fact that though
Lucius and Snape *look* very different, they *act* very alike, and I
asked if we have any canon stating that they clearly cannot be one and
the same. I don't even call that a theory, because it's so improbable.
I'm just wondering.

Del, who missed the Homer reference, sorry
