How do you know Sirius Black is distantly related to Lily
Potter????? Where did I miss that???

Thanks to everyone for their comments about Sirius' eye color. Carole won
out -- we are giving him dark brown eyes in our fanfic. It was interesting
how everyone had such different thoughts. I think a strict count of the
votes would probably indicate most people supported grey/silver.

I was persuaded by the argument that Padfoot must have eyes that aren't
"odd" for a dog to have (or he'd be conspicuous). Someone else noted that
Padfoot's eyes are described as pale & gleaming -- this would seem to
suggest icy blue or grey, but, alas, we've opted for dark brown. Maybe
JKR will clue us in a later book. So, for now dear fans, Sirius has dark
brown eyes.
