I couldn't agree more. Some characters I just cannot write because I want to be looking at them, dammit! And you want the other characters to appreciate their beauty and general wondrousness. Like you writing Snape/Remus. Although Snape doesn't like him, he can't help but be attracted to him and appreciate him because he (Remus) ROCKS! We already appreciate/want to shag/love him, but watching/writing the realisation dawn on someone else is great. Like we're nudging their elbow going 'look at that though! Look at his throat when he drinks! Don't tell me you don't like that...'
When Remus is being all mysterious and stuff, we don't want to know that he's thinking 'these underpants were a bad choice. I've totally got a wedgie.' Do we?
