Aggie:
I can understand that.  Unfortunately then, I'm afraid a deathly hush 
will fall upon your questions!! 

I am sure that JKR has hidden EXTREMELY carefully the reasons DD 
trusts Snape and vice versa, if she has left us any at all! The only 
one VAGUELY canonfied that I can come up with is that DD told 
Snape 'the plan' and a 16 yr old DE (or soon to be one) did the right 
thing!  

The thing is (and you SO remind me of my Dad!) is that we LOVE coming 
up with wild guesses, even if they are based on the residue vapour of 
a rumour from Aunt Marge's neighbour's cousin's cat. . .who happens 
to be Mrs Norris!!  It's fun!!  I'm not saying that your way isn't 
fun for you, I'm sure it is, like I said it's how I would expect my 
Dad to behave on here! I do apologise if you're younger than me (I'm 
31 in a couple of weeks!) and hope you don't take offence at this.  
I'm not trying to offend you!
