kchuplis:
OK, my last post for the night as I have trespassed upon the elves 
enough but just where was Lupin supposed to get money for a gift? And 
was Sirius supposed to say "it's MINE MINE alone to Harry". If Sirius 
and Lupin were a "thing", Sirius would have delved into the coffers and 
bought poor Lupin some clothes. THAT would be more convincing to me 
than the things everyone brings up. I would buy that one. Otherwise, I 
guess I just have discovered that few people have close platonic 
relationships in real life apparently. (And I point out that I have 
numerous gay friends and am in no way shy about it. I just think folks 
are doing an *awful* lot of wishful thinking here.)
