Alla:
What if whatever information we will
learn in the future books will tell us that Snape was not
just "bugging" Sirius, James, Remus, any one of them? What if he
was actively trying to wrong them somehow?
Magda:
Lupin's comment to Sirius when Harry confronted them about the
Pensieve Incident: "Did I ever tell you to lay off Snape?"
And Sirius' response: "Well you made us feel guilty sometimes..."
These do not sound like the comments of two guys who were being
"actively wronged" by Snape.
Alla:
Actually, I was thinking more about Remus being actively wronged by
Snape.
I should clarify though that I was operating under assumption that
Prank indeed occurred shortly after Pensieve scene.
And I disagree with you that we are overanalysing Pensieve scene. i
think that some pieces ARE missing from that Puzzle and the idea
that Snape may have figured out who Remus is after that exam could
be one of them.
Remus could still feel guilty in that scenario, couldn't he?
Especially, if he still does not know that Snape knew who Remus was
BEFORE he went in the Shack.
Again, to be clear, I was talking more about Prank than pensieve
scene itself.
Just my opinion ( or more like my speculation),
Alla
