nor Lupin seem to appreciate how deeply hurt Harry is.
 But I was 
proud of Harry for snapping back "I'm fifteen!" when
Lupin offered 
the lame excuse that James was only fifteen.

>> Rebeka:
Here I'd like to ask: How deeply Harry is?
Because IMO, Harry just find out that what Snape has
told him since the beginning is true: James is
arrogant, among other things. It's Harry who idealizes
his father, it's him who makes up 'James the Perfect'.
I'm looking forward for Book VI and VII, and find out
that Lily is not 'perfect' either (I have to say, I
hate her as a character).

As for Harry stating that 'he's fifteen', and acts not
like his own father, well, again that's because Harry
idealizes his Dad too much. Obviously, Harry never
knew how James was raised, neither how James/Snape
grudge truly began and why.
