"Lupin and whoever"?  Now, now, does poor Lupin have to be celibate 
for life?  For all we know, he's married with three kids.

I have no illusions that any characters will turn out to be gay/bi in 
canon--though it would be nice, IMHO--but what's unreal about it?  
There's just as much canon support for Harry/Ron as for Harry/Hermione 
or Harry/Ginny or just about any other pairing:  that is to say, 
practically none.
