It's one of the things--THE thing--I like best about Viktor.  We don't 
know much about him, but we do know he likes Hermione.  Good call, 
VK!  (I think his shyness is touching also.  =Months= watching her in 
the library before he said a word!)

Uh-oh.  Rebecca, you'd better get David onto that U-boat before the 
D/H ship picks him up.

Like most cliches, it has an element of reality.  It's just a reality 
that makes me uncomfortable, I suppose.
