Harry: When he has a vision of Snape being tortured by Voldemort he does the sensible thing for once and goes straight to Dumbledore. To save Severus Harry will do everything! He cannot loose him! Not now that he has found a family and a home with the snarky Potions Master. Not now when they have finally reached an understanding and a positive, caring relationship.

Snape: When he seeks out Dumbledore to inform him of a Death Eater meeting he is prepared for a lot of things. With Dumbledore you never know. What he doesn't expect is find his ward Harry Potter in the midst of a full fledged panic attack and apparently not the only one in the room to think him dead or at least captured by the Dark Lord.
Snark and care ensue.
