Or half the men in the academic world period. I'm really at a loss to see
all this shipping between the mauraders. People can and do have close
friendships that are not necessarily sexual. I think the only couple I saw
in the books that probably fit this mold it is the writer and the vampire at
Slughorn's party. For some reason, I really did think they were a romantic
couple. (I just pray they keep that whole party scene, which is absolutely
priceless, in the movie).
