this was fantastic. i absolutely love it!

sirius is my favorite character EVER! thanks so much for writing this. well done!

this was excellent. any story about sirius i just love. he is my favorite character...and you portrayed the atmosphere and mood really nicely! nice work...5 stars!

Deeply Moved.

Do you have some sort of Sirius obsession? I mean, your fics are so great...

LOVED IT! I really like your style of writing, and the story was great. Sirius is my favorite character and you told this side of the story superbly.

if there ever was an actual scene like this in the books, this one that you wrote would be perfect for it. keep up the excellent work!

awesome story! I had always wondered what exactly Sirius told Dumbledore and now I know! :)

Wow!! This is a really great fic, and something i hadn't really thought about before. I can't remember if i've reviewed before, but i have certainly read it several times. I was just looking over your S.P.I.W column and found the link. Are you continuing with your column by the one? It's one of my favs (if not my favourite!!) Please let me know! ^_^

This, this, this was amazing. Best fanfic I ever read, above "Toast" by Alkari and "Not the Cross but the Light" on SugarQuill. Time hasn't worn it one bit. Indeed, it made me stop brooding about "two years' borrowed time" (JKR planted a surprising amount of land mines in CoS, the movie, yet) and I... this was just so moving. Full marks, or more.

Poor Sirius.

::sob:: NOO!! SIRIUS! ::sniff:: u're such a really good author. i found u by clicking on ur column, S.P.I.W. =D I wanted to learn Characterization.

...To have lost that much...*shakes head*

I just... That's horrible.

I am very glad that you went about writing this the way that you did. You could have used excessive swearing and violence, but you did not. That is very admirable.

You could have done a lot of unneccessary things. But you did not.

And so this story truly depicts the scene.

The only advantage that Rowling has over you is her knowledge of her own people and situations, from the inside.

Good

I've read this story ages before this but just now I finally decided to review..
Very angsty.loved the way you depicted Sirius..and Dumbledore too.
Good job!

PS WILL YOU PLEASE GET THE SPIW COLUMN GOING? It's been, what, 6 months?

wow. that was so well written. i bet it happened almost exactly like that. you are a litertary genius. that was probably the most close-to-canon story that I ever had the pleasure of reading. I am sending this to all my friends who read HP. you are great.
