really sick of people thinking that because two people of the same 
sex are best friends, and like an old married couple, that they have 
to be homosexual.

I think that we have gone too far in the other 
direction. Sometimes people are friends. Can't two people be 
friends anymore!? Does everything have to be sexual?  I think that 
Remus and Lupin are just that, friends.  Which is a deeper bond than 
lover, if you ask me. A lover can leave, a real friend never does.



Alla:

I don't think anyone was arguing that two people of the same sex 
cannot be friends anymore, but same is true for the other option and  
two people of the same sex  can be lovers too, right?

There are at least hints in OOP that Remus and Sirius could be a 
couple  and I find it fun to think that they in fact were.

Madam Marozi, I think offered great interpretation of those hints.

Could it be that JKR indeed teasing us? Yes, of course, but as long 
as she does not flat out deny that Sirius and Remus were lovers, I am 
going to think thay in fact were.

I mean, if she wanted to deny this ship, she would do so as she did 
with Draco /Hermione ( Thanks G-d . :-) This SHIP was giving me very 
bad reaction )

They work well as friends, but they work for me at least even better 
as lovers and that can offer so many interesting interpretations of 
the past.

JMO,
Alla,

who likes Sirius and Snape as a couple the most in fanfiction, but 
who grew to like Sirius and Remus very much too as most canonically 
plausible one.
