So, Lupin is the most passive-agressive bastard I have ever read and "met"... Really.
He's also self-serving and spineless. But all in all not a bad person me thinks... I just don't know why he bribed the Sorting Hat with to made it into Gryffindor... I mean even poor Neville could stand up to their friends...

Where have YOU been?
What you're too busy!

(So I don't have a job this semester and a lot of free time, so what?)

That is confusing (and disturbingly not incorrect)

Actually yes.. :oP Like I said, I only have internet at work :P
Also, this week, no work for me... it is holy week in here and thus it is a holyday, so no work... sorry :(

And I know I am correct at that werewolf :P Even if some Lupin fans may hate me for it :P

I love holy weeks except for us they're actually days (too few)

agreed! But I'm not sure passive-aggressive can be viewed as a bad trait - I've a feeling that only people who are generally in the lower pecking order display passive-aggressiveness. And in Lupin's case, he can't afford to be really aggressive and risk being exposed/persecuted as a werewolf.

Huh, that's so TRUE! Never thought about it, but you're definitely right! Can't think of one thing Lupin did that is courageous. Hm, maybe his being a spy (or DD's emissary) among the other werewolves? Not sure.
