Well (btw, v. great essay yes yes precious) I think Remus suspecting Sirius had more to do with 'tried to use me as a murder weapon and thus cannot be trusted' than 'is a Black.' And thus, I have this to say: right on, Remus! I mean. I love me some Sirius. But, if I'd been Remus, at the time? Sirius Black in the Potter house with the Dark Lord. I'd be certain sure. I also like Percy's stance on things in OotP. If Percy goes evil then I will be yelling at JKR for not knowing morality from her ass. Percy's proud, and I don't think he'll come scurrying back to the fold, but he can be talked back given some understanding of why he behaved as he did. Or he might work against Voldemort, sort of, you know, freelance. Better understanding of Percy's loyalty to the Ministry might also shed light on the Slytherins' support of the Ministry and Umbridge - not evil, just not on Dumbledore's side! and of course that is one of Maya's Shiny Objectives. Percy, lead Draco into the light! I am sorry I wrote a story where you had a sociopathic crush on him. (and if you really do, I'm not blaming you.) And Percy writing to Ron *does* confirm the thought of Ron as the Sweetheart Weasley. Fred, George and Ginny - all way too stroppy and self-confident and, basically, judgemental to listen. (not that I'm calling them for these qualities, because Harry is horribly stroppy and I love him.) Charlie and Bill - grown up and taking their stance. Percy likes Ron best! Ah, Percy. We have so much in common.
