I am so happy. There is a gay couple in canon after all.

Magpie:
Ah, yes that is a paraphrase. They could easily have had an affair. 
It's still not a gay couple in canon any more than Neville/Hannah is 
a couple in canon, but she didn't specifically say this particular 
romance in her head was unrequited.
