* AngstWhatAngst: The sporkers point out that Sirius is disturbingly chipper for a man who spent twelve years locked up in prison with happiness-sucking demons over a crime he didn't commit. He instead spends his time bouncing around, playing pranks on Lupin and spoiling Ariana.

* RonTheDeathEater: Ron himself is a bit dumber, but mostly spared. No, Draco gets hit with this worst, being turned from a relatively ineffectual jerk who eventually realized he wasn't cut out for the big leagues, to a pedophilic near-rapist.

* StrangledByTheRedString: Ariana just sort of tells Ron that he's in love with Hermione (and blackmails him into telling her), even though the two had no real romantic interaction prior to this. (They went to a dance together, but [[OutOfFocus that's basically a throwaway line]].) Harry's attraction to Ginny has slightly more build-up, but still starts mostly just with Harry making vaguely lecherous comments about her.

* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic: Ariana's mother, Tabitha. In the spin-off oneshot, ''Tabby Cat'', all she does is visit Sirius in Azkaban to rant at him. The reader is allegedly supposed to sympathize with her, but the way she complains about how being his sister has made her life a "living hell" even though ''he'' has it much worse than she does doesn't make her too pitiable. It doesn't help that her choice of words implies she abandoned him without question the moment she found out he might have been responsible for the Potters', Pettigrew's, and the Muggles' deaths, never mind that he was her brother she had apparently loved, making her look like a FairWeatherFriend.

* {{Wangst}}: Dear lord, yes! Especially in the first year where Ariana has ''a dramatic and terrible secret'' that she makes extremely obvious she has, then whines and bitches when people ask her what's wrong and dramatically flounces off to the roof to pout about it.
** In one of the later years, Ariana and Maria get into a fight (which Ariana starts - Maria was taunting her but Ariana turned it into a physical alteraction.) When Ariana is summoned to [=McGonagall=]'s office, she starts whining and crying about how ''hard'' it is to deal with Maria's bullying. Even worse, [=McGonagall=] doesn't punish Ariana, even though she did to Harry for attacking Malfoy after Malfoy ''insulted Harry's dead parents.''
** ''Snape'' gets into this when Ariana starts "sensing" his emotions with her Empath powers and he starts whining about how everybody hates him and nobody liked him until Ariana came along, which is how the author chooses to explain why he was so mean to Ariana - because he hates all Gryffindors for being mean to him. Yes, really.

** This seems to be hereditary, because we're supposed to feel bad for Ariana for being bullied in both her previous schools (which would logically only happen if she ''told'' someone she was related to Sirius) and because Maria picks on her, yet Ariana's the one who constantly abuses her powers against Maria, never gets punished for attacking or insulting her and always blames her reactions on Maria for "provoking her".
