zgirnius:
Reading your thoughts below, we would learn that Sirius betrayed his 
friend's secret to an enemy that wanted to kill him. I would say that 
makes him look worse. No wonder Lupin had no trouble believing he had 
done it again.

zgirnius:
Except for the seeming agreement by various parties (Dumbledore, 
Lupin, and Snape himself) that James saved Snape's life. That curse 
of his own invention seems like it ought to have done the trick, but 
Lupin is alive, and no mention was ever made about any serious 
injuries to him. This is the sort of detail I would expect to read 
Sirius mumbling right after a statement like 'He deserved it', it 
sounds so much more convincing than 'he was always following us 
around, the greasy git' (paraphrase).
