I'm snagging this one tiny little comment and dragging it into an 
entirely different conversation. Mwhaha <bg>

I *loved* the scene where Snape goads Sirius and Sirius completely 
looses his cool.  *Loved* it.  I grin everytime I read it.  Snape 
plays Sirius so beautifully, every comeback Sirius thinks of, Snape 
easily turns it right back on him.

I mean, sure Snape is doing this to a man who's just this side of 
crazy (and possibly a bit drunk as well) but think of the history!  
I'm betting (going by Young!Snape's furious cursing, and Young!
Sirius's smooth and witty remarks during the pensieve scene) that 
usually it was Sirius using words to turn Snape into an emotional 
mess.  But now, the shoe is on the other foot, and it's *Professor* 
Snape, Head of Slytherin House, Potions Master of Hogwarts, with the 
upper hand.  Revenge can be sweet.
