Oh, oh, oh, me!  <Raises hand in air and waves it in

I like Lupin, always have.  I just think he's too
mild-mannered for me or something.  He is extremely
intelligent, which I find very appealing, and his
poverty doesn't matter to me.  However, I can't quite
see him as a romantic interest.  I could definitely
picture myself being good friends with him, though.  I
would definitely want him in my corner.

As for your mother, Richelle, I think she might be
forced to have you institutionalized if you tell her
such a thing.  :)

As you probably all know by now, I have already
declared that I wouldn't mind being Mrs. Sirius Black.
 Aside from the physical description of him in the
Lily and James wedding picture, he appeals to me like
he does because he is so intense and passionate.  What
can I say?  I'm half Italian and there's nothing I
like better than passion and drama.  I know he's got
some issues to work out but I'd make him an
appointment with a good therapist and help him work
through his problems.  :)  That Sirius Black just
really does something to me!

Count me out of the running for Snape.  Aside from his
annoying personality, I would have a huge problem with
the way he mentally abuses children.  I certainly
wouldn't feel comfortable having offspring with
someone like him.  And I just can't get past his
hygiene issues.  Maybe that's just because I'm
compulsively clean about my own self but there you
have it.

As for Lockhart, I can't deal with a man like that.  I
would enjoy him for sheer entertainment value but I
could never be with a man who enjoyed his own
reflection more than he enjoyed me.  He's far too
pompous for my tastes, not to mention that he's been
swindling the wizarding world for years.

I'm with you here, he's a bit too old for me at this
point.  Sometimes I like older men but somehow I just
don't see Dumbledore as a sex symbol.  A wise
counselor and friend, yes but a potential romantic
interest, no.  If he were younger, maybe.  However, he
is a bit too cryptic for my taste.  Imagine how crazy
it would drive you if you were trying to talk about
something important with him and he gave you the kinds
of bits and pieces answers he gives Harry.

I think Bill and Charlie have definite potential,
although Charlie's high-risk job concerns me.  Bill
appeals to me because he seems sort of rugged and
almost rebellious.  Wow, guess I like those tough,
edgy guys more than I thought, huh?  :)

I heartily second that!  This *is* fun.

~Nicole, swooning Sirius fan.
