What aspects of Sirius' or Remus' characters do you yourself identify with? Are you attracted to the characters or the pairing because you see something in their lives or their relationship that reminds you of your own?
Personality wise, I'm probs more like Remus: slightly quieter and more introverted, etc. Also, as I mentioned above, when I was a teacher, he and I had similar methods. I find Remus easier to write because I feel like think like him a bit more and that we could share similar humor and head-space.
Sirius, though, is my first love. I feel so strongly about him on many levels, not the least of which is the idea of injustice. I've been falsely accused and I know what that feels like. I am AVIDLY against the prison-industrial complex, and extremely concerned with prison reform. He just gets under my skin.
