I didn't think I'd ever be writing another R/T Christmas fic, but it was such fun to do (and a lot easier than the pesky Downton one!). I also didn't think I'd manage yet another get together plot, but it appears there is no end to my repetition on an R/T theme. Which makes it very nice indeed to hear you enjoyed it.
I've often thought present buying must have been awkward for them when money and pride comes into the equation, let alone the difficulties of buying for friends and those you'd like to be something more. Both of them coming up with something that cost nothing but gave them a great deal in the way of future hope seemed like an obvious way round it, though I wish I'd put a couple more lines in to emphasise the uncertainty of war really hitting home, especially for Tonks, and how shocked the adults must have when Arthur was bitten. Ah well. There is always next year and 'one more last R/T Christmas fic'. ;)
The idea of Remus finding the perfect Christmas view for Tonks is, well, perfect. And so romantic. (Actually, this particular exchange of gifts is one scene that I would particularly love to see someone draw.)
Oh, I'm particularly pleased you thought it worked (I did briefly imagine everyone thinking, "So he gives her a view then?!"), and it would be lovely if someone ever did feel inclined to draw it. It's a talent I wish I had myself.
Thnak you very much for the thoughtful comments. They're much appreciated, as always. ♥
