I just read a few chapters, and quite enjoyed her take on the characters. Her dialogue style is very revealing and what each of them say is a huge difference from what is usually seen in fandom. I liked her take on Lupin. I've always seen him as the lay down and take it type of man, but he is quite self-confident in this fic which is a happy change. It was interesting, her comparison of James and Sirius, and Sirius's layers. Sirius is probably the character most like myself, as far as the mind works, and he almost seems to have planned out the running away thing. I have always seen the events as unpredictable and huge life-changing incidents. She quite changes that, and has the characters take them in stride, and the change not come through the hugeness but the subtlety.
