I can't help but consider the fact that there are some folk who just can't
allow themselves to openly love, but do quirky little things where no one
can see, things which would be considered totally out of character.

Lots of good brain fodder!  Love it! :-)
I made a very strange connection the other day while watching the last 
episode of M*A*S*H.  Anybody remember Charles Emerson Winchester III?  A cranky, 
selfish, snooty old English gent who virulently hated being stuck where he was; 
who was cordially disliked and made fun of by all; who looked down his nose at 
everyone else; and who also *hated* it when he got caught giving expensive 
chocolate to the Korean orphans, and broke down when the Chinese refugees he'd 
taught to play Mozart were killed...

For some reason he made me think of Snape.
