The praise coming from Remus, no matter how small it was, caused a broad grin to spread on Sirius’ lips. He so very much crawled any and all amounts of praise that he could get, especially when it came to his thesis. He knew that not a lot of people would be able to even comment on his thesis, much less know whether or not he was actually any good.<br/>That just meant that hearing Remus talk of his work and not think that it was completely insane felt like a huge boost to him.<br/>“Thanks, mate,” Sirius muttered, keen to keep his voice down and not disturb professor Mulligan in his teachings.
