Aiiee!!! I LOVE THIS!! Best. wild. theory. ever. I'm now <drooling> over
Remus/bird!Sirius fic. :) Kidding, kidding. ("Where's your boyfriend?"
"Oh, I keep him in his cage this time of the month.")

So, you're idea is that Sirius is like a phoenix animagi? But burns every
however-often? So he'd have to be an infant/chick for a good part of his
life. Gawddd that would be such an awesome character to write.

If you're into fanfic, there's a kickass fanfic that expounds on this
idea, "The Elemental Trilogy" by Edna Krabapple:

loved it so much that I wrote a sequal. You don't havta read it, but if
you liked the first, maybe out of completion, <shrug>:

Thanks for agreeing with me. I usually get flamed when I try to explain
why I don't think Sirius is properly dead. :) I admit it is contrary to
what JKR's said in interviews -- but like she's going to tip her hand?
Between misdirection and plain ole human error, I only believe half of
what the author says. :)
