Review:TenthWeasley says:
I saw that this was about the Black brothers, and I immediately clicked over -- I'm in a Sirius-writing slump right now, and once planned a novel based around Regulus, so they're boys dear to my heart. And this is one of the best stories surrounding them I've ever read. I remember now that I gave you second place in a challenge a few months ago, and now I remember why. You are an extremely talented writer!

I love the whole metaphor of the princes and kings, and especially the continual references to celestial things. That particularly strikes me as brilliant, knowing that a lot of the Blacks are named for stars. To take that metaphor further, to comets and planets, and have it all fit seamlessly, is really, really admirable. I am in a slight state of awe. :D

It's easy, upon reading the books, to look upon the Blacks as, really, snobs. After all, we only really see them through Sirius's eyes and he doesn't disguise his disgust for his family and their ideals. But you've sort of cast the light on the other side, on this dying, proud family, and it really made me stop and think a bit. You've entered your story whole-heartedly, and it's so fantastic.

This was an incredible story, and I am so, so glad I clicked on it. You've done amazingly here!

Author's Response: Thank you so much for the review! That means so much to me. ♥

I seem to be a fan of metaphors in general. Sometimes I think I overuse them :x But I'm really really glad you liked them here - the king one was sort of (a little bit) planned, but the star/celestial objects one was spur of the moment. so thank you!

While I can't say I really like Sirius' parents or believe in what they did, I wanted to look at them with a little more... objectivity, I guess. They always had this proud, almost regal air about them despite the fact that there were almost none left. I always do have trouble picking a side on an argument! Besides, I truly doubt that anyone is wholly evil - except for Voldemort, obviously :P

Thank you so much - your review made my day. :) It really means a lot to me!
