Granted, I plowed ahead and didn't take the time to figure any of that out, but I don't think I would have even with time. I was kind of troubled by the question of what would have happened if Harry hadn't been there to get the memories with the crucial piece of information from Dumbledore, but well, it's a story. And Snape was a really smart, powerful wizard who could have had a backup plan like sending his Patronus to deliver the word or something. Of course, if Snape had been able to talk to Harry while not dying, there's the question of whether Harry would have learned any of those things besides the message from Dumbledore. Though Snape would have had to tell quite a bit to convince Harry he was really on his side. Okay, maybe I'm overthinking this. You guys are way too smart on the predictions!

Still, it's nice to be validated, and it was great to see it all finally laid out. That chapter was 6.9 books in the making.
