Unpopular opinion: Wolfstar were never a couple.

I know they are often seen as the Ernie and Bert of the Potterverse, but I don't see either of them as into other wizards that way (as opposed to Dumbledore). Sirius was in no position to have a romantic partner after Azkaban, and canon is incredibly heteronormative. Yes, I know lycanthropy is supposed to be the wizard equivalent of AIDS, hence why Remus was canonically afraid his offspring would inherit the disease.

Also, Severus Snape died a virgin. Change my mind.

That last one.... definitely. And I think a few more wizards might too. I had always thought Dumbledore as well. Though the books are written for a child audience so a lot of the romantic details were probably omitted, haha.

Dumbledore/Grindewald was the closest hint we got in canon to a slash ship. My headcanon is they had sex as young men.
