Thank you - it's great to hear you enjoyed it, especially as I know you probably lost a precious hour reading it all, lol. My mystery idea did start off with Marius Black getting blasted off the tapestry and seemed to get steadily bigger and more and more involved. In fact I was worried I was cutting all the explanations short at the end, but I did want to leave some parts for the reader to make up their own mind.

One of those parts was when the Maruaders touched the grave but Remus didn't - I was thinking that he wouldn't back then because he didn't quite believe he'd see anyone as the person he loved as there'd never be anyone for him. :( Whereas Sirius thought he saw James, but possibly was seeing Harry as they looked so similar, James would presumably see Lily, and Peter would probably only see himself...

And I'm very glad you liked the R/T relationship because I think that ended up being the part I was most pleased with. I didn't want to make it too angsty or too depressing, but they're a long, long way from a happy ending at this point so they couldn't really resolve any of the major issues. But Tonks never gives up on him in HBP so I also thought it was reasonable that there'd be something to keep her hopes alive.

Thank you again for such nice comments. I really do appreciate it. :)
