Is it too vague? I apologize if it is D:

...I'm not sure if you can stretch any answer to fit the lines, tho... so hopefully its okay. sweatdrop

[SexiiShadow33]

No, I like that it's hard! I'd rather it be tricky to the point that I have to think and guess than so easy that it's obvious, because that's just no fun.

I just have to think a little harder, and figure out what it is I'm missing~

[TopXHat]

is it the house of black itself?

[Aquamarine]

I try to make my riddles challenging, since I get bored of riddles that get solved in the first try... but I guess now it's getting too challenging...

Thanks, Shadowix.

And no, sorry, it's not the House of Black itself... sweatdrop

An eye for an eye leaves everyone blind
But blind cannot see that the world is unkind
Although torrents twist into impecunious life
Anger can only prolong and deepen the strife

Love has faces that nobody can see
Though conformity knows that thought is not free
And companionship falls only so far
Internal discord opens the Borgia scar

Break the mutiny of the black reprobate
Against the lore that calls for hate
Did experience mean the truth is told?
For whom could judge as events unfold?

Through past mistakes, the future is set
Yet nobody can change the misguided debt
Life determines the nature of choices that change
With finality it’s governed, the ultimate estrange

Looks like no one's guessed this, so I figure I might as well just get it out there: is it Sirius himself?

[Aquamarine]

Omg, you're absolutely correct! Yayyy! biggrin

The right answer is Sirius (and just in time too, tomorrow would've been the time limit)

Growing up with the Black family Sirius was encouraged into views that he didn't share, and he got really sick of it but there wasn't really anything he could do about it.

Then he went to school and made some awesome Gryffindor friends~ But that didn't really work out for him either, because that just made the rest of the Blacks hate him more for being a stinky Gryffindor and his home life got even worse.

So he ran away! But then....s**t went down. And that was bad. He wasn't really in a position to do anything about it either, and no one would hear his side of the story because he wasn't given a fair trial and he just went to jail and that sucked and even when he managed to escape he had a hard time convincing anyone of the truth (even his best friend).

So he was stuck living on the run and hiding out from the law and he just wanted to get out and rejoin the fight but the one chance he got to do that his bitchass cousin knocked him through a curtain and he went away and never came back and that sucked. sad


Do I win? ffffff
