See, that's the way I saw it...Snape is the only one who can make the
potion and so he is the one who brings it to Lupin. And I have a
feeling that Snape may, at least unconsciously, bring Lupin his
potion closer to the edge of the time limit hoping Lupin would
transform and thus get sacked.
I've always had a question concerning the quote above, "...I brought
a gobletful along...", where is it? Did Snape leave it in Lupin's
office or drop it in his rush to catch Black?
I've also been wary of Lupin's comment of "As long as I take it in
the week preceeding the full moon...". If this is true then why
didn't Snape give it to him earlier? I admit I also wonder why Lupin
didn't remind Snape to give it to him sooner - does he dislike
talking with Snape that much or did he remind Snape and then Snape
blew him off (which would play into my original idea of Snape
purposely pusking the time limit)?
