Honestly, I figured that subtext was the closest we were going to get to a canon queer character. Doge's obvious crush, young Albus's straight up obsession with Grindelwald to the point that it changed his personality, it all just screamed GAY GAY GAY at me and I figured that fandom of all places would, you know, read subtext where subtext was written.

But apparently it's not between the lines unless it's with someone young and hot IDK?

I am so tired of this wank. I am so tired of ALL HP wanks. I hate this one especially, though.

I think a significant slice of fandom did read it that way, but holy shit, before JK, creators have responded very badly to the idea that someone as near and dear to their personal ideals as the central mentor might be gay. So it wasn't getting hardly any consideration as something she might have done on purpose until she outright confirmed that she did.

I'm with you that there's too much shipping for the pretty, and plausible, interesting relationships get lost in the shuffle (Delphi's Filch/Snape, omg). But I don't think that accounts for what was going on here.

It's funny. Too guys stare at each other for a few seconds, some people yell "Gay subtext!"

Actual gay subtext? Flies over their head.
