Lupin has always quite appealed to me - but part of me wonders if that
is because I'm a kind of nurturing type, and he seems to need looking
after. I'm sure he hasn't been eating properly when he first come to
Hogwarts.

I'm big on the nurturing - and most of the other men we see in the
books are fairly strong people, who don't need it, so he's the only
one who really suits me - well, Arthur Weasley as well, but he's taken
and I don't think I'd want to get in a fight with Molly!

Actually, I tend to look the other way - at the kids. Obviously I'm
not after them in a romantic sense, but my maternal instincts really
take off when I read about Harry or Neville, or, I'm sad to say Draco.
They all seem to me to need mothering. I guess I'd have to focus on
Neville though, because if I tried to take Harry, I'd probably have
that fighting Molly problem again.

BTW, new here, names Emma, reading through the archives trying to
catch up and delighted to find fans who seem as obsessive as me.
Unfortunately I have found the group at the end of my holidays just
when I am going to get busy again.

Emma-the-hemi-demi-semi-goddess of children's literature (AKA a school
librarian).
