Hi everyone,
I'm sure the "What side is Snape on?" question has been discussed ad
nauseam, but I can't help but add my own two cents on the matter. I
was just re-reading GoF last night and noticed an interesting detail
in the scene where Imposter Moody has just revealed himself to Harry
as a DE and is about to kill him. We're told that there are three
shapes in the foe glass just before DD blasts the door open and
stuns Imposter Moody, one shape corresponding to each of DD,
McGonagall and Snape. I'm assuming that Imposter Moody "tweaked"
the foe glass so that his enemies, i.e., enemies of a Death Eater or
enemies of the Dark Side, would show up in the glass, which makes
sense of DD and McGonagall doing so. It also makes sense of Snape
doing so *if and only if he is on the side of the Order*. If you re-
read that scene, JKR seems to make it a point to mention a second
time that Snape is seen in the foe glass, and this time she mentions
him specifically.
I don't think this is knock-down evidence for Snape being
Dumbledore's man, but it's weighty evidence nonetheless. I'm
counting the days till we find out for certain.
