scratch the surface; marauders era

-
Sirius Orion Black appears to be like your average 15 year old but he is different in so many ways. Good at fighting, flirting and faking, scratch the surface and you will realise that things may not be like they seem.

everyone has their breaking points, sometimes people just snap.

Remus John Lupin has a hard time trying to appear like your average 15 year old, but considering the conditions he pulls it off quite well. He is easily the bravest in the fifth year and all of Hogwarts itself, but you will only know if you scratch the surface.

success is not final, failure is not fatal and its the courage to continue that counts.

James Fleamont Potter is your average 15 year old and there is not much else you can say about that. He comes from a loving family and has the best of friends but his loyalty to those friends and mindset to always put others before himself, even if it causes great danger to himself, is what may set him apart from others, thats scratching the surface.

even on bad terms your loyalty shouldn't change.

Peter Pettigrew your textbook, average 15 year old. He is easily considered to be the follower and is molded by others perception of himself. But Peter's deceitfulness and pure cowardness is what sets him apart from others and his friends, and that can be found by barely scratching the surface.

the saddest thing about betrayal is it never comes from your enemies, and you never notice until its too late.
