"Leave him alone for a bit Sirius," implores Peter. He puts another turkey leg on Sirius's plate as if Sirius were a dog who could be tricked into staying with a treat.

Sirius frowns at the turkey leg and then picks it up and takes a bite.

"I was just trying to help," he mutters, to himself, around a mouthful of turkey.
Lmfaooooooooooooooooooooooooo and it works oh Sirius. (Also again I really like your Peter, he is really excellent.)

Omg shy proud Remus when he finds things, contributing to his friends group. REMUUUUUS *rips face off and flings it into the ocean*

the wolf howls with the force of thunder.
oop @ ur writing talent i like this

He barks the password at her, over her disdainful sniff of, “And what happened to you?”
Lmfao perfect. AND THE PREWETTS. I perked up and made the most joyous face when they popped in. I JUST LOVE THEEEEM.

Without another word, he stalks up to the second year boys’ room, chin held high and back straight enough to make even his mother proud.
One of the things I really enjoyed about this is how second-year Sirius is not yet so completely divorced from his family. This, and the not blushing - Sirius still takes pride in being a Black, or at least in a distant way, he remembers to act accordingly.

“It’s poor planning to not have someone make noise any time other than the full moon.”

He slams the table leg into the wall. It makes a satisfying smash. Peter and James both wince, but James, at least, follows suit. He grabs a chair and smashes it against the floor.
This was SO good for me, just wow. It's a really great idea on your part, and it is executed so well, and oh, babies. Them smashing things - they're such babies ;~;

Remus eyes him warily, as if beginning to suspect this apologizing thing is bad business.
Lmfao it definitely is remuspup

Then, suddenly, abruptly, quite without warning, Remus's fingers slide up along the side of Sirius’s face and through his hair to rest lightly against the back of Sirius's skull.

"Hwargh!" protests Sirius.
Yes ugh Remus's fingers. The way you wrote this was so tender and hVJHvj1 perfect I can totes understand how Sirius feels. Also lmfao the HWARGH never change sirius

Remus makes a startled noise like a disgruntled cat
gpoy

PETER IS SO HARD TO WRITE. Because obviously we never get a view of him that isn't, "evil cowardly traitor." But he clearly added something to the group and was a Marauder (and I hate it when Sirius and James are written as the only clever and mischievous ones), so it's obnoxious and unrealistic to write him out completely. Uuuugh. I'm glad you like my interpretation, though I feel like I don't always give him enough attention. Though, when I'm writing from Sirius's pov I don't feel as bad, because I don't think Sirius, little shit that he is, gave Peter much thought or attention either.

WOW SO MANY THOUGHTS ON PETER

Prewetts! \o/

Yesss, I'm glad you picked up on/enjoyed Sirius as still being kind of a Black. This is a Sirius who's still very much in the process of detangling himself from his family.

The smashing part is my favorite scene! :D I'm so glad you liiiiked it. I looooove you.

[familiardevil]

I think your Peter is great! And I think you give him just the right amount of attention. Part of what I see for Peter's character is that he isn't given enough attention, and that should show in the story.

PREWETTS!!!!!!!!!! my babies omfg
ginger fever 5ever apparently

Yes poor little confused pupling ):

I LIKED IT SO MUUUUCH ack

[coyotesuspect]

Lmfao I feel like that is kind of a cop out but I also kind of agree?? I think a James pov would give more attention to Peter, but I also think a James pov would give more attention to a lot of things (Quidditch! Lily! Bad things happening in the paper! Lily! SNIVELLUS >( )

I love you and your/directly benefit from your ginger fever. ~c:

): poor Siriuspup. He is such a little shit, but he is also a confused bb.

:DDDDDD

[familiardevil]

Lmfao yes. It was fair to the fact that this story was mostly from Sirius's perspective that you allotted Peter only so much attention. That's just good writing.

Lmfao u do <3
