Barmaid now:

Are you buying??  Round for the house then!

Don't worry, if you do have to give up butterbeer for a year there is 
always firewhiskey!

She is most likely playing with us, I agree, but I do sort of like 
the idea that there is a Snapelet somewhere.  I like the kinds of 
theories that include Snape's family having something to do with 
Snape's return to the fold.  (oh and I do think he has really 
returned to the fold.... he just has a very damaged heart and can't 
quiet get to "good" yet.)
