Re: part II (another post for duj)
duj was having problems posting. She asked me to post the following:
Neville had a particular reason to put Snape at the top of his fear list in the Boggart lesson: it was the first DADA lesson after the incident in Potions where Snape had warned him that "at the end of this lesson we will feed a few drops of this potion to your toad and see what happens..." and immediately before dosing the toad, added, "If, as I don't doubt, he has done it wrong, his toad is likely to be poisoned."
Chaos and others assume that Snape was *enduringly* Neville's worst fear, when perhaps he was only *transiently* in that position.
