that was really cool and a very interesting take on what is beginning to be a new r/s trope: the actual star trope! and it seems to have been invented by these games! it was a clever spin, though, to make the star a separate person (or, kind of, remus) who helped them get together. i have never read anything quite like this and found it refreshing and interesting. not to mention, the whole story was just tons and tons of fun. i loved how annoyed sirius got at the whole thing; his annoyance was very funny, poor thing.

i especially loved the beginning and sirius's thoughts about his uncle. i know that brighty18 and several others have created an image of alphard as a person who helped shaped sirius's life. there was a really beautiful line in the beginning, something about a time in which sirius and regulus were too young to know pain, that really got to me.

all in all this was really fun and funny and a very unique and captivating adventure story. nicely done, mystery author!

Hey there!You have no idea how happy your comment made me when I first saw it and even now. :D!
I have to admit,the star trope,seriously, how did it never happen until the games?In all the years of being in this fandom,I haven't seen any work with the Star!Sirius idea. Hehe!!Sirius's annoyance is always a personal favourite of mine,I'm sooo glad you enjoyed it!! :)

Oh, there have been so many entries this year that have featured Sirius as a star, and this one did it in such a different way.
I really liked the idea of having Remus being a medium, it worked really well as a way to bring to two characters together, and also in creating that interesting tension- not knowing where Remus began and star stopped.
I really liked that conflict, in Sirius not knowing quite where he stood, and Remus being so very sincere the whole way through.

I think for me, Sirius B might have actually stolen the show. You wrote their anguish so well at having to leave, and that charming unfamiliarity of how to be a proper human.
I really liked all the parts with the stars talking amongst themselves, especially Remus' birth stars coming over to have a bit of an angry sqwuark.
You just had a really wonderful idea and pulled it all together in the most excellent way!

UUUUUUUU!! *glomps you*

Thank you sooo very much!!I am utterly relieved and extra happy that you liked Sirius B so much.I mean since it was a team star work,I wanted to use Sirius in whatever way possible(that sounds weird after I wrote it!Lol!)
But yeah,characters like Sirius B who sort of come in between the main pairing usually gets a lot of hate so I'm seriously amazed and absolutely delighted that you adored him.I felt for him too when I wrote it!haha!!

Thanks a lot for the support!

This was a lovely romance and a really cool AU--I especially loved the parallels between Sirius A & B and Remus and Sirius. I also really enjoyed the idea that the star-boy was sort of a combination of Sirius and Remus. It was a really fun read and made really good use of the theme!

[abyss_valkyrie]

:D!!Why,thank you soooo much!!! *hugs you*!I'm sure you're creeped out by a hug from a stranger who doesn't know how to use full stops! XD!

Oh this was really lovely and interesting, and very creative! I love the way Sirius A and Sirius B talked to each other (and I felt a bit sorry for B), and you did a great job showing the confusion Sirius felt about his feelings for Remus-the-star-boy and the real Remus. I also enjoyed how it took Sirius a little time to sort his feelings out, that there was no immediate fix. Remus was really precious, and I so enjoyed the ending. Lovely story, and loads of fun!

Awwwh!Thanks a lot,you awesome human!!Lol,so far I'm really happy no one seems to be happy that B is gone,on the contrary he seems to have gotten a place in your heart for the duration of the fic! :D!! I'm glad you appreciate the drawn out get-together here, because yes,why in the world would they just fall in love in five minutes?!
Although you never know with these two.
