I like wordplay, and I like it when people can dredge up thoughtful 
references. The mind certainly sways it for me! The wit goes along 
with wordplay, and he is a master wordsmith. Being in shape only 
makes it that much better. More eye-candy. *g* And, competent in 
his craft is certainly attractive. It's the whole 'can he support 
me' thing that is so not in vogue these days. Which, of course, 
brings us to the wand, which he seemingly disparages, but which he is 
a master at as well. My Pansy is holding hands with your Pansy and 
jumping up and down.

   I was so going to stay a very long way away from this thread but I told my wife about it and she insisted that I put down that she "loved" Sirius and that Ron would be very, very nice in a few years. She also said and I quote "Snape revolts her in just about every way a person can be revolted.
   
  Since I am here I do have a question. What exactly would make someone think that Snape is in shape? Wizards in general seem to use magic for almost every type of labor and the only sport they ever seem to play is Quidditch.
   
  Unless you use magic somehow you have to have regular exercise to be in shape. We don't ever see any of the adults and few of the students ever do anything to get or stay in shape.
   
  Unless it's magic is doesn't make sense. Unless I missed a book reference.
   
  I am going to assume and I could be totally wrong that there is some scene where Snape or maybe even someone else covers a bit of distance at some point. If this is the case it doesn't mean anything. I know several people who run 10Ks regularly who are in terrible shape and fairly overweight.
