(Sorry for the very late reply, my inbox is a huge mess.) You know, my problem with SS/HP after HBP is not with what Severus did, but with Harry's character. He's become a mini-James, and that makes it harder to write and believe. I seem to be the only one who thinks this way, though. :) I love this pairing and the only thing that I see getting in the way of these two is Harry's character. I don't think Severus would go near Harry with the way he thinks and acts in HBP. So yes, your assertion that Severus is too cool for Harry rings true for me. This is the biggest obstacle to writing my fic, and I even considered giving up at one point. I'm one of those people, however, who hates starting something and not finishing it, plus I think I've worked out a way around the problem.
Oh, and the SS/DM subtext in the book was wonderful, wasn't it? I do like this pairing and hope that HBP will result in more fic and art. I think Duckpuppy did a beautiful S/D picture some time last year, it was just gorgeous.
Er, this was a little long, sorry. *hands over chocolate*
