Voldy And Snape Share A Link - the VASSAL vessel?"

Neri (back from RL):

Sounds good. VASSAL it is.

Kneasy:
How Umbridge Modernises Badness/Light Enquiries,
Percy Is Potentially Evil
How this fits in with a Snape/Voldy connection is a bit of a puzzler
to me. Maybe I'm thick.

Neri:
There was no connection, like I wrote when mentioning it. It was late
at night

who thinks mind-linked Snape is a cool idea, but too
Snape-centered to pan out

Neri: 

Do you mean I should have centered it on Lupin? But we already have a
promise that Snape's secret will be revealed in Book 7. This suggests
that he is somehow part of the "Heart of it all". Lupin on the other
hand didn't play any central part in canon until now. His greatest
contribution to the plot was teaching Harry the Patronus, and DD could
have done that instead. Although personally I'm a Lupin fan, I'd be
the first to admit that based on what he has done until now, he could
have been edited out of the story with very little damage to the plot.
