One common theme is family loyalty and betrayal. Since the Black family has a complex dynamic, stories often explore how the sister deals with loyalty to her family like Sirius or when she has to betray family secrets for the greater good. Another theme is the struggle against the family's dark reputation. The sister might try to break free from the stigma associated with the Black name. And love, whether it's family love, friendship love or romantic love, is also often explored.
Well, identity is a big theme. In Sirius Black sister fanfiction, she often has to figure out who she is apart from being a Black. Is she going to follow the family's dark path or create her own identity? Magic and its power is also a common theme. She might have unique magical abilities or be involved in some sort of magical mystery. And of course, the theme of survival in the wizarding world, with all its dangers and politics, is often present in these stories.
The themes usually include the power of friendship. Given that Sirius had his own group of friends, his sister might also form strong bonds with others at Hogwarts. Another theme is the search for truth. There are often secrets in the Black family that she tries to uncover. And the theme of self - discovery. As she grows up in the wizarding world, she discovers more about herself, her values, and her place in the family and the wider wizarding community. This can be a long and arduous journey filled with many challenges and revelations.
One common theme is family. Since Sirius comes from the Black family, his sister's relationship with her family and how it impacts her connection with James Potter is often explored. For example, the Black family's pure - blood mania might create conflict or a sense of alienation for her.
The theme of freedom is quite important too. Sirius was locked up in Azkaban for a long time, and when he escaped, he was fighting for his freedom. Fanfictions often expand on this, showing his journey to fully regain his freedom and his place in the wizarding world, while also dealing with the prejudice against him because of his supposed crimes.
The theme of redemption also shows up. Since Sirius had a somewhat 'tainted' reputation in the eyes of the Black family, some fanfictions explore if Orion could have played a role in his redemption or if Sirius could have redeemed the family name in Orion's eyes.
One common theme is family. Since Sirius comes from the Black family, stories often explore how his child is related to the family's complex history, traditions, and dark secrets.
One common theme is redemption. Since Sirius had a troubled past, many fanfictions focus on him trying to make up for his past mistakes as a professor. Another theme is family. He might be a father figure to some students, especially those who lack proper family support at Hogwarts.
One common theme is family heritage. Since the Blacks are an old pure - blood family, many fanfictions explore how Sirius Black's mother dealt with the family's traditions and expectations. Another theme is the mother - son relationship. Given Sirius's rebellious nature, how his mother reacted to it and how it affected their relationship is often explored.
One common theme is self - acceptance. The fanfictions may show Sirius coming to terms with his body image in a world that might have different ideals. For example, he could learn to love himself despite not fitting the typical 'fit and handsome' image often associated with him in the original series.
Love and friendship are also big themes. The OC and Sirius usually start as friends or strangers and then develop a deep romantic relationship. Their love story might be set against the backdrop of the wizarding world's turmoil, like the fight against Voldemort. It adds an element of danger and excitement to their relationship.
Family conflict is also a big theme. His relationship with his family, especially his parents and brother, is often explored. For example, how he coped with the dark and prejudiced views of his family. And a third theme could be self - discovery. As a teenager, Sirius was figuring out who he was, and fanfictions often take this journey of self - realization as a central plot point. This can involve his discovery of his true loyalties and values, which were very different from what his family had instilled in him.
The theme of loss is also prevalent. Whether it's the loss of his freedom, his friends, or his chance at a normal life. For example, in some fanfictions, his relationship with James Potter is explored, and how his death was a huge loss for Sirius, adding to his overall sadness.
