something you'd find at K[nockturn]A[lley]. It would be funny for
Lupin to turn the thing that scares him into the thing that scares
Snape. It would make sense that the thing that Snape would throw at
Harry is the most disgusting thing he can imagine. <snip>

Carol:
If you're right, and if Dumbledore knows about Snape's boggart, it's
insensitive if not downright cruel of him to use "Cockroach clusters"
as a password, especially since Snape probably reports to him
frequently. It would be like having "Dementor" as a password when he
knew that Harry would be coming to see him.
