tropicwhale:
Yeah, but look at how the Marauders were when they were in school. 
The world was divided into two bits -- "us" and "not us". Peter 
went over to the "not us" side and Lupin was probably just as 
angry as Sirius in the Shrieking Shack, he just had years to 
perfect control because he is a werewolf. His training kicked in, 
that's all. He was just as angry at being betrayed by Peter, and 
Lily and James needed to be avenged.

tropicwhale:
Lupin can't be a villain, he's too nice. And afraid of his abilities 
as a werewolf!!!
