OH GIVE ME A BREAK! DD is not *in a state of panic*. DD is always
confident, and optimistic (as you have said yourself). And I don't
think that with DD around that Harry is ever in as much danger as we
all think. I think that DD watches over Harry pretty well.

Yeah, that is what he says... I can go with Neri's Dumbledore
looking in the essence of the person and knowing what the person is,
but Nope, I disagree that Dumbledore is always watches and manages
to keep Harry out of harm way.

In the batle of MOM we see another "not confident" at all
Dumbledore. I mean, he may be confident when he battles with Voldie,
but he is NOT confident at all,when Harry is
possessed. He seems scared to me.

"Harry made to run out from behind his statue guard, but Dumbledore
bellowed, "Stay where you are, Harry!"
For the first time, Dumbledore sounded frightened. Harry could not
see why" - OOP, p.815, paperback.

So, I really don't see Confident Dumbledore in this scene.

vmonte responds:
I agree with Alla here. I think that Dumbledore was very frightened 
for Harry in this scene. I do believe that Dumbledore has kept a 
close watch on Harry but I also believe that it's impossible to 
predict or strategize every move Harry (for that matter anyone) will 
make. It's evident that the DoM scene was one of those moments.
