Well...there is fanfic then there is Paradigm of Uncertainty...

and just on a side note...

You might want to start off with Paradigm of Uncertainty (PoU) as A Sirius
Affair (ASA) is a prequel to that and we leave out great chunks of
explanatory information on the assumption that people have read PoU first.
(Lori was 1/2 way through PoU when we started ASA). However, Sirius doesn't
figure prominently in PoU.  So if you are interested in a fic featuring
Sirius and relationships amongst older folks (the story is set in 2001...H/H
are 21...Sirius is 40ish), and you can stand some unexplained
stuff...primarily with the younger characters plot...by all means check out
A Sirius Affair.  You can always email me off-list with any questions about
stuff that isn't explained.
