Looks like I'm the only one wishing for a realio trulio happy ending without any character-building tragedy. Whatever. You are all monsters, Rowling would be proud. I, on the other hand, am starting up the campaign for a full-on happy ending; go AU and go large or go home. EVERYBODY LIVES!

And by "everybody" I mean "Lily and James" obviously. I honestly don't see Sirius ever getting over their deaths, not really. (Remus would struggle a lot too, but he is more, uh, stoical and anyway he can't blame himself. Sirius could've saved them but he made a terrible mistake and didn't so, yeah, even Remus and Harry's combined best efforts wouldn't convince him to allow himself to be properly happy after that.) They can still have some sadness with Remus being a werewolf and dealing with all that comes with that and Sirius can have miscellaneous childhood traumas with his family. Although I'd probably let Regulus live too, in for a penny in for a pound.

Remember all those epilogue, what epilogue? fics after TDH? Let's have more Voldemort, what Dark Lord? in which lalala, I don't care how, but all my faves get to live happily ever after, with snuggles and good times and laughter and sex. Yes. EVERYBODY LIVES, JUST THIS ONCE, EVERYBODY LIVES.

You know it makes sense. *winks*
