It could be about the Warrior! But it's more than that (to me) 'cause, I think, Sirius is more real to me than canon fully warrants. Same as the case for you with Draco, I believe :> It's easy to build on these characters; that's why I was talking about 'potential' and stuff like that. I think the 'Lust' in Wormtail's character is pretty intrinsic; it's not likely he'd just needed more 'care' to turn out better (but who knows). With Sirius, though, a lot of things got messed up. I do think he seems asexual in practice, but his personality isn't, rather like with Tonks. The reason so many fanon stereotypes involve him being a Ladies Man is because there's this playful/sparkly aspect to him. And one aspect of the Lover is the Player. I see Sirius as the Player (in terms of personality) even if he never baited girls. And if he didn't, it'd be a bit weird (given he didn't like James or Remus 'that way', 'cause they weren't 'too busy' in HS, I don't think). Awww, I don't think the books like hate so much as they're notsogood at describing love :>
As I said above, I don't really know enough about female social dynamics to feel confident either way. ^^; Kinda sad, huh :> I sort of hear about it either from a distance or one-on-one-- in fandom, say. It's true that BNFs fall rather spectacularly in HP fandom, at least, haha, and there's a sort of public glee at the prospect of juicy 'wank' that strips the feathers from the bird, so to speak. The girls always subconsciously want the queen to fall. The more spectacularly the better, I guess.
I guess I was just thinking about HS and childhood bonds and how the same girl generally has the power for years, but life isn't HS, and that's a very cultivated/artificial environment, too. :> You're right about the rise precipitating the fall, though. Girls are scary, haha.
