Hi just came over to see what you had written because of the nice reviews you gave to Snegurochka's stories, very insightful. You asked another reviewer here, what had prompted him (Sirius) to try and turn his best friend into a murderer. IMO and I happen to like Sirius but he was a prankster as a kid and did not really see the harm that could befall Remus until 20/20 hind sight set in. I could be wrong but that is how I see it. You have created the other side of the coin in this story regarding Sirius and it is greatly appreciated. I never stopped to see Sirius in this light to be honest and that puts me at fault. Thanks for sharing.
Author's Response: I'm sorry, I thought I had responded to both your reviews! I certainly read and appreciated them. Yes, I tend to think of Sirius as, "Friendly, overeager, not too bright." Kind of a contrast to the oh-so-cool picture we frequently see. Glad you enjoyed.

That was wonderful. I never really thought about how Sirius felt, what his thought process was when giving over the Secret Keeper duties to Peter.
As always, I adore your writing.
Author's Response: Thanks, Ray! Sirius is a bit of a mystery, I think. I hope JKR tells us a bit more about him - such as what prompted him to try and turn his best friend into a murderer.

Oh! This is so sad... talk about dramatic irony. Nicely done, though. Very poignent.
Author's Response: Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it.
