Wow, that was sad.

Well written, but sad.

"James is the dick with the swollen head, Peter is the whimpering vagina, Remus is the smooth, succulent, favored breasts, and I’m the asshole." Genius! Pure genius! :D

Absolute brilliance. Seriously. This happens to often between friends - more often than people think, I'm sure - and no one speaks. This is the side, though, of the one who thinks he's an ass, the one who hates the one whom everyone sees as perfect, and the side a lot of people relate to. The side of the one whose seen as perfect, well, that side is more difficult to relate to. It's the side sometimes no one wants to relate to.

But yea. While I see a lot of "Remus admires and is jealous of Sirius's awesomeness", because Sirius is awesome sometimes, I almost never see the other way around, and especially not written like this. This simultaneously lifts your mood and brings you back down to earth, reminding you that even those two aren't perfect, and in ways that most wouldn't think of.

I love the slash, but I didn't read it as such. Slash doesn't have to be included for this to work; it's strong enough on its own. But yea, anyway, thanks for writing this. Loved it.

Not a happy story. But a good one. Despite the fact that it's about everything that upsets him, it's pretty clear he cares for Remus a great deal. Nicely done.

This is really well-written. I haven't read many rants, or the like, that not only sounded believable and in character, but also ended on a final note and didn't turn into a metaphorical race around a Nascar track (y'know, going around in seemingly endless circles - pointless, IMO).

Sirius' awareness of the possible implications of his friendship with Remus is a definite bonus -

A couple things that caught my attention: third paragraph from last, second sentence; "No where" should be written as one word. And I think "worry-wart" (twelfth from the end, second sentence) is one word, too, but I could be wrong.

In short, I can definitely hear a teenage Sirius going off on this tangent, and can sympathize. Kudos!

Very nice! I think this a really interesting take on Sirius. Well done!

I've never seen Sirius 'done' quite like this before, or James for that matter. I like that you took the info on their personalities from canon and speculated on what it would actually be like (Sirius being from a pureblood family, James being egocentric) Anyway, I love it. More? Maybe?
m-erechyn chapter 1 . 8/9/2008
Wait, so reading my fic makes you write an angry Sirius? :D Just kidding. Srsly. :]

Anyway, I really like the idea you've got here... too many writers like to portray Sirius as some sort of "golden boy" who does no wrong, gets all the ladies, rebels in all the right places (myself included, I'm sure)... and you've done a nice job of unveiling his hidden anger. That sounds cheesy, but you know what I mean?

Also, this was a very inventive rant; props to you :D Lots of swearing, yes, but some nice lines in there.

To the wonderful embarrassing-typo catching, angry fanfic (and other) writing at 1 in the morning inconsequentially named friend of mine:

LOVED it! Wonderful idea and I think you did absolutely fantastically with. You did a good job making sure to bring it back whenever you started to stray so that the main idea isn't lost which is wonderful (Here I could go on a rant about sermons that can get SO far away from the original topic and then very ungracefully sometimes (not always even) make it back to the original point and do a very bad confusing job at tying it all together. However, I won't today other then to say that you did a much better job at bringing it gracefully back full-circle whenever you strayed) . I love the idea too. Did I say that already? Oh yeas I see it up there although apparently I'd rather type more then simply delete the repeat. ...whatever. And I think you really captured Sirius' character with all the witty comments which were just amazing.

Okay umm that's all. I should probably stop typing before I collapse of fatigue. Although after finally making that post on the roleplaying boards I'm much more awake then I was earlier. Okay, done rambling. Great job again!

Please note that I made sure there are no embarrassing typos, lets just hope I didn't miss anything again. I can always blame it on the fact that it's 1:30 in the morning. :D
