Really? I’m surprised that that ship is that rare. It always struck me as one of the more plausible ones. This seems to reflect a general pattern that whatever makes ships common is not very correlated with their plausibility.
It refers to a particularly popular Potterverse fanfic. (See wikipedia on Harry Potter Fandom). Set in the marauder years which itself refers to about 1970 when Harry’s parents would have been in school.
It’s rather hard to track down online but here is a PDF adaptation.

It does. None of the four possible combinations of Pettigrew, Black and Lupin seems remotely unlikely. The fact that in the Sirrius-Pettigrew case one of them killed the other doesn’t particularly reduce the plausibility either (in the real world or in fiction!)
No. Reconstructing from what I wrote way back then I seem to be referring to the fact that it is not unusual for lovers of any kind to kill each other.

Yes, this seems very consistent, except for canon ships, ships of minor characters, and MY favorite non-canon ship, which is popular and plausible :P
Which non-canon ship is that?
I was being (mostly) facetious, but Sirius/Remus.
I approve of this ship.
Are you a Shoebox fan?
Hell yes I am a Shoebox fan.
What does Shoebox mean in this context? (This is one of the few cases where I think I’ve got a good excuse for asking instead of Googling.)

I assume you mean in MoR rather than canon?
