Amuly here. Um... I started shipping them over a decade ago, whenever I read PoA. When I read 1 and 2 I was already a shipper (well... by the time I read 2, I was), and I remember being disappointed b/c I didn't have any ships in the series. Harry/Draco kinda, because the dynamic worked, but I didn't really like either character very much.
Then PoA came out ^.^ And GoF. And by OotP they were my OTP (ha, see what I did there?) and I was madly, madly, madly, deeply in love with Sirius. To the point where I recall talking to a friend on AIM the first day the book came out and waxing poetic about how much I loved Sirius and I loved him and oh my gosh he's the bestest ever.
...
She had already finished the book at that point, and remained mum until I called her sobbing my eyes out not 3 hours later. ;___; ("Why didn't you tell me????" "I didn't want to ruin it! You seemed so happy!" "WHY DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING TO ME? WHHHYYY?")
So, yup. R/S has always been my OTP, will always be my OTP. They're the pair I always come back to, even when I flit around to other fandoms.
