A Sirius Black and Bellatrix Lestrange couple took on Comic Con

While I was at New York Comic Con, I saw a Sirius Black and Bellatrix Lestrange couple. My first thought? Why? Why would you do that?

Sirius Black is my favorite character. Always has been, always will be. So when I was at New York Comic Con and saw a cosplayer rocking the chest tattoos and looking like Sirius when he took Harry to Platform 9 3/4, I was so happy!

I hadn’t really seen many Harry Potter cosplayers and a Sirius one is always a rare find! But you know what I didn’t like? The fact that his cohort in the whole thing was a Bellatrix Lestrange cosplayer.

Here’s the thing, I don’t know their situation. If they’re cousins, well then that’s funny. But from the looks of them and how they were together, I’m leaning more towards the idea that these two are in a relationship.

Which is wrong. Because Sirius and Bellatrix are cousins, related very closely, and I don’t want to think about Sirius and his cousin who then went on to murder him making out. Again, I’m sure it is all fine.

Maybe they were actually cousins and it is quite clever! But as I said before, I do not think that is the case. And I know everyone can dress and do as they please but the moral implications of that relationship just weigh on me.

And maybe I don’t like it very much because of the outcome of that relationship. I don’t like thinking about how my sweet Sirius Black was murdered trying to protect his godson.

Were they amazing cosplays? Yes. They were fantastic. I just don’t want to see them hanging out together. It brings back flashbacks when she turned around and killed my favorite character without warning.
