7500 words longer, to be exact. I'll have to post it in parts.
Er? You can put somewhere in the vicinity of 10,000 words in a post. It's comments that have the 4300 character limit or whatever it is.
“You know what I mean! He thinks it means her son, he is going to hunt her down – kill them all – ”
You know, I just noticed... this is Severus's language, here. His primary concern is that Voldemort will hunt Lily down, naturally, and he speaks of that first. But in the same breath, as yet unprompted by Dumbledore, he goes right on to kill them all. "All" requires at least three (exactly three, in this case). He is in fact expressing upset at the fact that he believes all of them are going to die, before Dumbledore goes off accusing him of the opposite.
And of course Dumbledore cuts him off when he says "I have, I have asked him", making it seem like Severus is agreeing with the suggestion that he had asked for Lily in exchange for Harry, but in fact we don't get to hear precisely what he asked. And then Dumbledore adds James into it, which not only isn't what Severus said, it wasn't even what Dumbledore said two seconds ago! (disingenuous of him, as you said.)
