Oh, now I remember what exactly you're talking about! It's been a while since I read HP, sorry.

Sirius is like a quintessential Gryffindor; he has very high standards and then fails spectacularly to live up to them. It's a pattern with him. He says judge people by how they treat their inferiors when he himself is awful to Kreacher. He say the world can't be divided into good people and Death Eaters when he does it himself. He goes through all this trouble of becoming an animagus, just to suspect Remus before anyone else.

I used to go back and forth between hating him and loving him. He's so flawed, and so tragic. :)

I'm the exact same! I'm never sure if I think Sirius was overall a good person or not. He had good moments, and bad moments. He was a bully, but he also fought in a war that would not have troubled him otherwise. He became an animagus to help Remus at the full moon, but then used him as a killtoy to scare the shit out of Snape (also risking Remus being expose as a werewolf). Like, he didn't think his actions through, but even 20 or so years later he still didn't regret doing that, so he didn't seem to have much respect for Remus's feelings or secrets.

Honestly I think the best part of him was his loyalty to James, Lily, and Harry, and his utter devotion for them. I just don't see that devotion or care towards Remus anywhere in the story, apart from him becoming an animagus, so it baffles me that he's almost always paired up with the friend he treated so poorly.
