Well, to start this off, I figured I'd continue discussion on some popular topics.

(When posting, please remember to stay on topic and mention what you are replying to when not quoting.)

1.) Where exactly is that motorcycle?

2.) Is Sirius the type to have a girlfriend? Why or why not?

3.) Could the Two Way Mirror have been helpful in reaching Sirius? How?

4.) Is the veil the end?

5.) Is he dead?


As far as Sirius having a relationship...

I think in school it was possible that he may have had a girlfriend. However, I'm of the opinion that if Sirius ever did have a girlfriend, it would have been based solely on status. I think there are three major reasons Sirius wouldn't have a girlfriend.

1.) Sirius would never date a girl if he thought he wouldn't be labeled as "cool", or she wasn't the same "level" as he.

2.) Sirius thought very highly of his friends, and honestly I don't think he would have a GF just because he may have feared their dissaproval. Can't you see them becoming jealous if he spent time with a girl?

3.) If Sirius was ever in an "official" relationship, he wouldn't be available to the other girls who were so gah-gah over him. I think he may have lost half of his "fan-club" if her were "taken".

And, as an adult, I doubt his goal in life was to find "the one". Sirius took life by the horns, and while I think most men do want companionship in life, Sirius wanted to use life to it's fullest before tying the knot. Needless to say, he didn't have a chance at life because of Azkaban.

But in my opinion, it's all the better that he never was involved in a relationship. It leaves it completely open to speculation. And besides, don't we all wish we were his?

I am hoping for a book to come out after the HP series that will be called, beyond the veil. I love Lissy take of the veil and would love for that to happen. I want so bad to believe that Sirius is still alive and well and in our world. Boy wouldn't that be a "fine" sight to see.

I can see a girl becoming jealous over Sirius (in fact I see about 12 or more) but that would boost his ego sky high. He would love it if girls were fighting over him....*knows plenty of males that like that*....That to him would give him the mentality that he knows he is handsome and can make the girls go "crazy", so to say.

What a nice way to end quotes.....Yesh (as Chris says )

I beg to differ. I don't think Siry would have a "SERIOUS" GF either but not for that reason. Siry may have been uber confident ((Okay, so he was a bit arrogant)) I think if he really was "looking" for someone, he could so have maintained a perfect relationship with someone who was average. Yes, there would be "special" problems but everything that's "worth" it doesn't come easy... I don’t think Siry would’ve went for someone who was EXACTLY like him…Sort of like Tonks. Many others have said that they seem to be perfect for each other…I don’t think so at all.

The thing is Siry wasn't looking for one. Yes, he loved the flatter but it was just another "game" to him in a way.
Oops, there you go. I'm quote replying to these threads like I do with fics but anyway that's a better way of explaining what I meant. I think it goes both ways though. For Older and Younger Siry.

~~RQT

Actually, I was referring to James and Co. I think that James would get a bit jealous if his partner in crime spent more time with GF than him, don't you think? Also, I'm thinking of school-age Sirius. After a while, James would get over it though, seeing as how he becomes involved with Lily.



And also, I have the feeling that Sirius isn't grateful of his good looks. I mean, yes, I'm sure he loves making the girls swoon, but perhaps he feels like he wants a girl to know him for who he is and not what he looks like.

Put yourself in Sirius' place: everyday you look in the mirror, you're reminded that you're the offspring of the Blacks--the egotistical pure-blood maniacs. I think part of him curses the way he looks because of his family, while the other part of him enjoys it. Consversely, he is a reminder to his parents that he is their son, and he defied them. I'm sure he likes that part.

I agree with that!! It has to be hard when you are not loved by your immediate family. Your mother scolds you terribly to the point that you think that you are not good at anything. I am glad that he had someone like James to love him like a brother along with his parents treating him like a son. But it has to be hard to loose someone like that at such a young age. It is no wonder he kind of gave up when sent to Azkaban, he had nothing left.

1.) Where exactly is that motorcycle?
Maybe Hagrid kept it,Sirius was acused for murder a few days after the Potter's incident, he couldn't possible keep it.

2.) Is Sirius the type to have a girlfriend? Why or why not?
No, I don't think Sirius is the kind to have a girlfriend, no if she isnt Something! She would probably have to be like him, pretty and with a excelent sense of humor. And I agree that the would have to be "cool" like him, Sirius was very popular at school, he was the "cool" guy.

3.) Could the Two Way Mirror have been helpful in reaching Sirius? How?
Yeah sure, he gave that Mirror to Harry for a reason, and I guess he would be carrying his in his pocket all the time. That was a easy and safe way to comunicate with Harry.

4.) Is the veil the end?
No, can't be. That veil it's going to be a portal to another dimension, and Bellatrix will have just petryfied him, so once she's dead he is going to be able to come back. I belive!

5.) Is he dead?
Oh no, never! And if JKR makes that true, he will always stay alive in those who loved him hearts.

:SBFC: :SBFC: :SBFC:

1.) Where exactly is that motorcycle?
I think it's with Hagrid too....there was something in one of the books hagrid saying that's why he lent me the motorcycle! he was sorry he ratted out the potters, being the sicret keeper! or something like that....
2.) Is Sirius the type to have a girlfriend? Why or why not?
surprisingly...im gonna say know, yex it would be nice for him to have one, but he's too preoccupied to think of girls ans finding his true love given the situation and the current circumstances...
3.) Could the Two Way Mirror have been helpful in reaching Sirius? How?
at this point...it's hard to tell really...harry never used it once sirius was alive, now that he's dead...it's sorta no use...or maybe he could see sirius's body or something...
4.) Is the veil the end?
i dont think so, i think we'll be seeing..or reading...more of the veil than we think...
5.) Is he dead?
i hope not...but i think he is!<<you have permission to hit me with anything you've got!>>i mean...if he were alive, he would suffer...again! hasnt he suffered enough? he needs his peaceful sleep...and he'd be even more peaceful knowing that voldie was finished by harry...or by anyone...

:SBFC:-that is all....

Hagrid, did say something like that.

I'd say that the motorbike may be hidden in the Forbidden Forest, because that's where a lot of things are hidden (Aragog's family, the Ford Anglia, Grawp, ...). And I just don't think that Hagrid would let it in a simple garage. But that brings up another question: Why didn't Hagrid give Harry the motorbike?

for me, I want to think that its still somewhere in Hagrid’s place.. or maybe somewhere in the forbidden forrest.. well it could be, and Im thinking for a possibility that it could make its appearance in the last book.. resurrected and come in handy, just like what the Ford Anglia did back at the movie two.. this is just what I want to think *smiles* but it would be very old now and rusty *makes me think*

and I agree with you Stacey, that’s such a burden… and we know that Sirius wanted for revenge and that’s what sustained him there at the prison, me thinks that Harry also gave him life and reason to continue to live… *awww*

Yes ma'am!! I agree!! Although I have not thought about the rusting part!! I would like to hear more about Sirius on the motorcycle *thinks of bad boy image...hehehe*


That is sooo sweet and a good way to put it....Harry gave Sirius life and a reason to live....very nicely put my dear!!

As far as Sirius having a girlfriend....what about girl friendssssssssss!!???
I am sure that he had plenty but I am sure that he had many enemies too....hey that is a thought. People either loved him or loathed him. I don't believe that there was an in between with him.

No. Sirius isn't really the 'girlfriend type'. I could not see him kissing anyone except me . Also I totally agree with #2 (Sirius thought very highly of his friends, and honestly I don't think he would have a GF just because he may have feared their dissaproval. Can't you see them becoming jealous if he spent time with a girl?) I think he wouldn't have enough time to have one either, he always spends time by making trouble and he would probably have to give that up to have a GF.

5.) Is he dead?

I hate to say it, but yes, I believe he did die. Lupin is intelligent and he told Harrythat Sirius died. Lupin probably knows what that veil is all about. And Dumbledore said Sirius died, and DD is too wise.

Ok, so let's suppose that Sirius is in fact dead, despite opinions.

What do you think JK has in store for Sirius in Book 7? Will he be in it at all, more than a brief remembrance? Do we have hope for a proper burial?

I believe that there are too many questions still unanswered for her not to mention Sirius. Everyone wonders about the veil and its mysteries. As far as a proper burial, I hope that it happens but probably towards the end of the book is where it will be, along with others who have not had their share of remembrance.

I also believe that there will be a little more Sirius show up due to the fact that he and James were so close. There will probably be more about the past but not much (<----wants to believe that there is tons more to the past than beats the eye).

All I have to say is we need to know what's behind the veil so I say yes. There are just too many things we need to know for JKR not to mention Sirius in the seventh book.

Yeah, JK can't just but a rock on it. Sirius was a very importante character, she will have to explain us (dedicated fans) what really happened to him! If the body disapeared, if he's a no comming back dimension..

If we have his body back I'm sure Harry will make him a proper burial!

Kiss Kiss,
Jo*

I think Sirius is an important character, and something he said or did will come into play in the 7th book.

As for the proper burial, there's no body, but there wasn't even a remebrance ceremony or anything! Hopefully JKR will havehim get some sort of ceremony. He deserves one.

1.) Where exactly is that motorcycle?

I believe the motorcycle is in the Forbidden Forest! Let's remember back to when Hagrig took Harry to the Durslys'. He came down on Sirius' motorcycle. He would have needed to have gotten back to Hogwarts. He is not a full wizard so he couldn't have apparated back home! McGonagall and Dumbledore can of course apparate back. But to me it seems likely that he would need the bike to get back to Hogwarts!

2.) Is Sirius the type to have a girlfriend? Why or why not?

I think yes and no. I think Sirius is such a adventurous person he would always be on the move any maybe too busy for a relationship!

Then again we can't tell how much compassion he has for the people who are close to him. He would be a wonderful boyfriend *Dreams of sitting with Sirius on a star strewn sky*.

3.) Could the Two Way Mirror have been helpful in reaching Sirius? How?

I have to admit I haven't really thought about this as much as I have some of the other misteries. I think that it would have helped Harry contact Sirius when he needed to, this would have most likely stopped Harry fleeing off to the Ministry. That would of course prevent Sirius falling through the Veil in the circular room.

4.) Is the veil the end?

I don't believe that once you enter the Veil it's the end of everything! I have an idea that it may be what separates two different universes or gallaxies. I believe that Sirius is somewhere. But honestly I couldn't guess after all this!

5.) Is he dead?

I hope so much that he's not dead. I would love to think he's somewhere else. But it is the magical world and who knows what could happen after passing through the Veil? Alot of people thought Voldemort couldn't come back. What happened! He came back. JK once said herself there are loop holes in the wizarding world. Why couldn't he come back? There has to be something!

For this post I'm just assuming that he is actually dead, okay?

I do hope for a proper burial, so that Harry and the Order and we can say good-bye to him. He also deserves this, I think. Also I do hope that the veil is explained. JK just can't kill off her best character without an explanation.

Well said! And I agree. If there were no Harry Sirius would still be in Azkaban and would maybe have lost his mind.

To comment on the second part, I think that Sirius running away from home at such a young age may play a part in his relationships. To me, he craved acceptance from his peers and when he found it with the Marauders, he was quite loyal to them. I think this trait would make him an excellent boyfriend if he could trust someone enough to allow them to get that close. However, the fact that he was betrayed by Peter no doubt destroyed much of the trust he held.

*smiles* Nice image...

Oh Sabbi I like your way of thinking!! Yes, what he received from his family at home was definately not a good ordeal and it seemed that the only person he could trust, died. I know that around the time of Godric's Hollow, he thought Remus was the trader but turned out to be Peter. There was 2 people that he could not trust either, even though Remus did not betray his friends.

Also I believe that he never matured or had the chance too, played a big part on that. I still want to believe that Sirius was a man of many girls, and many girls at that point in time, so many to choose from so why choose just one; therefore, they either loved him or loathed him.

Exactly. He "adopted" subconsciously the rest of the Marauders, particularly James as his own family in an attempts to fill the void that his real family had left. I'm sure it was a great feeling knowing Nymphadora was a surviving member of his family that was also unwelcome to the "pure blood" philosophy. Even though I think because of Tonk's age and personality she may have annoyed Sirius at times, I personally feel he felt it welcoming.
