Incidentally, do we *ever* find out exactly what Lily did see in James?
So far as I can remember, the closest we ever get is Sirius' offhand
remark that she started going out with him once he stopped hexing people
for the fun of it; we see them married, but I don't think we ever see
her as a schoolgirl finding him even remotely attractive. I was assuming
Rowling would cover that in the last book, but she doesn't -- she only
shows further scenes of Lily dismissing him.

I'm not saying that it's not a plausible relationship (people do grow
up, and grow into each other); I'm just wondering if we ever see any
indication at all of their relationship in between Lily's perceiving
James as a big-headed bully, and then being happily married to him...

Perhaps I'm not the only one who has a problem with your recent
postings. It's just too stupid for me to always write that I totally
agree and couldn't have said it better.

I used to have hopes of finding a decent semi-professional psychological
profile of Snape somewhere. I now see that he can only be what JKR
allows him to be. Given your observation in another thread that "Rowling
is pretty hopeless at romance and strong emotions of almost any kind".

I would totally agree with the above, except to say "bloody hopeless".
