I admit that I can see the possibilities for a Snupin, I agree that Snape might have been attracted to Lupin as a kid, but I see that as much more superficial. I cannot see a real relationship with the Lupin of PoA - the one who still calls the Werewolf Incident a 'schoolboy prank' and who is all passive-agressive all year.
Now Lupin of HBP was beginning to grow up more - he at least admitted to Harry that he didn't 'dislike' Snape which I think had to do with walking a mile in Snape's black boots, what with Remus' own plunge into spying. I can see an eventual friendship forming if it had not been for the Astronomy Tower AK. After all, Snape in DH actually saves Remus' life (albeit at the cost of a twin's ear), so I doubt Snape HATES Remus at that point.
But for Snupin, I tend to read ones of what might have happened if they had survived the war (and Tonks didn't). I find them very AU but then the fact that they are still alive in them is AU, so what the heck? -- Hwyla
