Dumbledore agreed to let Snape (or Draco, if he'd been able to do it) kill him because he thought he'd be in Harry's way? Hmmmm...interesting, very interesting, and something I hadn't thought of before.
Great chapter, I hope the next one covers Harry's visit to Ginny. :D
Great job!
Author's Response: It doesn't, I'm afraid. I've been told I'm dragging my feet but I will have Ginny relive a few moments of it during the archery contest. I'm still not sure what I think about Snape. This is one possibility and the best way to explore that (for me) is to write it out. The next story I write will go the other way, I think. I'm still not sure yet.
