Dead on. I just want to believe Sirius grew up some. ::sigh:: Like a lot
of people, his and James' attitude in the pensieve was totally repellent to
me... probably because I have a fair guess at how Snape feels!
I still think he might have learned a bit from that, not necessarily in
regards to Snape but in regards to Lupin. But again, that's total wishful
thinking. (Might be true- he does seem more sensitive to Lupin in OotP
than he did in the pensieve, but that might just be general maturity and
his friends whacking him upside the head enough times instead of a climatic
turning point.)
I think you make an excellent point about James though!
