Mmm - for the longest time, I was hoping for Snape to fill that part; the person who seems unpleasant, suspicious and makes it clear he is not impressed by the Boy Who Lived, and is yet on the side of the angels, so to speak.
Happily, this fandom's size is such that even now, I can still find plenty of 'new' fics that take place in some AU where things went differently and Slytherins were, if not good, then at least useful. (Oh, and where Sirius didn't die, obviously, because if you're going AU anyway, why not go all the way?)
Sorry to bump in, just felt like leaving a comment.
