I did ask this when the book had only just come out an ddidn't get 
much response (I imagine because the death issue and snape's loyalty 
were the most striking points) - What does the group think of the 
Lupin shipping in HBP? I contend that it is... 
a. not foreshadowed or calculable, even in retrospect, contrary to 
most things in the books, esp. shipping
b. because it is a narrative afterthought it was not well thought out, 
what good could Lupin and Tonks see in each other (over being with 
someone else, or alone)?
c. does it seem in chracter for Lupin to fall in love (and with Tonks)?
d. Do you think it's authentic love on his or her part?
I confess to having a belief he should be with another, but that 
aside, I just don't see the point.

thing)
