Seriously...or should I say Siriusly...
Here goes...*Ottery dives in* Quote:
He noticed ruefully that not even Snivellus was around. The thought of the greasy git enjoying a summer holiday was equally annoying as it was unlikely (Snape probably never enjoyed anything).
Pester him to death Sirius...
I hope he does...I can't wait. Quote:
“Are we quite ready to go, Mr. Black?” someone asked behind him.
*insert trepidation* Quote:
Sirius knew the voice immediately. He turned and grinned at his former transfiguration professor, “I was born ready, Professor McGonagall,” he teased. “And it really should be Mr. Wulfric now, don’t you think?”
McGonagall waved the comment away as if it were no matter, “yes, yes, I know,” she said peering at him over her glasses. “I can’t believe I’m teaching you a second time.”
“It’s our lucky day,” Sirius grinned. “Besides, you loved having me in class.”
“Right,” she answered primly, “and just for the record, that didn’t work the first time and it won’t work this time either.” McGonagall waved one finger in admonishment, “and I take points even from my own house if it is deserved.”
“If you say so,“ he winked, he loved pushing her buttons. “Besides, it’s possible I won’t be in your house anyway.”
“And where did you get this notion?” the Deputy Headmistress scoffed, leading her student into the staff lounge.
“From Dumbledore,” Sirius stated simply. “I need to be sorted all over again.”
McGonagall’s lips pressed into a thin line, “once a Gryffindor, always a Gryffindor,” she retorted lighting a fire in the fireplace.
“That’s what I said… Hang on – we’re going by floo?” Sirius was disappointed.
The whole back and forth there, and that sly flirtiness...
Oh, Sirius, you're soooooooooooooo cheeky...
I could so see that. You've captured his character magnificently, no wonder the readers are clamoring for your return.
Lovely, lovely. I'm loving it. Very witty. Quote:
McGonagall, for her part, appeared as though this prospect did not appeal to her either. “Two hours, Mr. Wulfric,” she gave him a stern look as he appeared about to protest, “two hours, ”she repeated, “right here. Here’s your list and I expect that you will try not to be too conspicuous.”
Would it be too evil to hope that he fails?

The twins showed no signs of recognition beyond noticing a profitable sale when they approached Sirius. “I see you’re a man of distinguished taste,” Fred observed.
You write the twins brilliantly well, as well...which is not surprising since you're a twin
The good twin no less. Quote:
“And if you ever are in need of our services…” George started,
“…feel free to send an owl,” Fred gave Sirius a card for the shop. They were clearly hoping for more business.
“Or just bug our brother, he won’t mind,” George laughed.
“I’ll do that,” as Sirius turned to leave, he noticed a pretty girl about his age eying him up on the way out. He winked at her impudently and decided that this was just getting better and better.
I love him. You write Sirius and the Twins very well...
I hope there's more interaction with them. Seriously. I think they three could get into a lot of good trouble together...
To the Readers: Stop pestering Lissy...you all should be giving her ideas not whinning.
You don't just pull refined art like this out of your achoo. *In best Professor McGonagall voice* Now stop whinning and start suggesting!
Or I'll throw the lot of you into detention!
