All this talk about Hermione/Moody/Crouch Jr. has given me the
courage to reveal my own favorite ship: Voldemort and Lily!
After all, why would he bother to say "Stand aside, you silly girl."
This is a dark wizard who loves to kill, the more unforgivable the
curse, the better. No, I think he'd been harboring an infatuation
since a chance glimpse a few years before. Voldemort would be in his
late 50's early 60's around that time, approaching middle age in
wizard years. A very dangerous age for insane dark wizards seeking
immortality. Younger woman/older maniac, doomed from the start. In
his twisted way, he figured if he eliminated all the
other men in her life, he'd have a chance. She rejected him anyway,
he killed her in a jealous rage and then went all to pieces. It
wasn't Harry, 'twas beauty (nearly) killed the beast. His hatred of
Harry and attempts to kill him still work in this context, since it's
similar to the reason Snape/Lily shippers explain much of Snape's
hatred of Harry.
This interpretation also gives additional strength to the Snape/Lily
shippers. Imagine Snape's horror when he realizes all those months of
Voldemort pestering him for grooming tips and advice on how to pick
up girls was to try to win Lily! He was probably at Hogwarts within
the hour.
Donna, meaning no offense to Snape/Lily shippers, truly.
