From:

I read the books twice before I was into fandom. I was always so sad when Sirius died. I was heartbroken for Harry that he lost him so soon after finding him, I was sad that Sirius would never be exonerated in his life, I was crushed for Remus. I was sure at first that it was a misunderstanding and there was a way back through the veil (even thought I knew Remus must know). It was sad and felt it, but I was just sad for a character in a book. And then when I read it again after being in fandom, I sobbed like a baby, like uncontrollably. Once reading it with the kiddo he looked at me and said, “Are you really crying?” I am grateful for Bring Back Black fics and art and AUs. :)
