So Snape read her mind and knew she would ask him to make a
Unbreakable Vow in a few minutes, so he quickly told Dumbledore who
said "Oh goody goody gumdrop, just make sure you actually make that
Unbreakable Vow to kill me Severus, it will help our side big time if
our most powerful wizard dies".
Ah, the contortions Snape lovers go through to maintain their
preconceptions despite the new book is a sight to behold. However I
think it is often wise to alter your views when you receive new
information, like the fact that Snape murdered Dumbledore. And yet
we're still debating if he's evil! I'm reminded of a cartoon I saw, a
judge tells a defendant, "You are charged with murdering your wife so
you could marry your sister, how do you plead?" the defendant responds
"Guilty, with an explanation".
