Challenge: #212 - temptation
Word count: 108
Rating: PG-13
Characters: Remus; Severus; Hermione; Harry.

"Ever noticed how every man Remus is interested is dark-haired and skinny, with a big nose?"
"Oh, yes," replied Hermione.
"I wonder why."
"Oh Harry, isn't it obvious?"
"Do you really think...?"
"Yes."
"But every man Snape is interested in looks nothing like Remus, no resemblance at all. As though he's deliberately choosing some-one different."
"I know," Hermione said sadly.
"But that's not fair... I mean it's like Snape doesn't care."
"Oh, he cares. Remus only wants some-one if he's reminded of Severus, as though Severus is the very shape of his desire. But Severus can't want a man if he's reminded of Remus, it hurts him too much."
"Think we should do something?"
"It's tempting."

Nice take on the prompt. *g*
It was fun to write a snupin from the perspective of outside characters.
Mmm, banging their heads together does rather spring to mind...
Very nice! :D
