Snape's Worst Memory

"Harry looked around carefully.  Snape had to be here somewhere
.This 
was his memory
." 

Page 641

"Excitement exploded in the pit of his stomach: It was as though he 
was looking at himself but with deliberate mistakes.  James's eyes 
were hazel, his nose was slightly longer than Harry's, and there was 
no scar on his forehead, but the had the same thin face, same mouth, 
same eyebrows.  James's hair stuck up at the back exactly as Harry's 
did, his hands could have been Harry's, and Harry could tell that 
when James stood up, they would be within an inch of each other's 
heights."

"Harry's stomach gave another pleasurable squirm—was Remus Lupin.  He 
looked rather pale and peaky (was the full moon approaching?) and was 
absorbed in the exam
"

Page 643

"Snape remained close by, still buried in his examination questions; 
but this was Snape's memory, and Harry was sure that if Snape chose 
to wander off in a different direction once outside in the grounds, 
he, Harry, would not be able to follow James any farther.  To his 
intense relief, however, when James and his three friends strode off 
down the lawn toward the lake, Snape followed, still poring over the 
paper and apparently with no fixed idea of where he was going."

"You—wait," he panted, staring up at James with an expression of 
purest loathing. "You—wait
."
"Wait for what?" said Sirius coolly.  "What're you going to do, 
Snivelly, wipe your nose on us?"
