I had a wonderful name for the potion Tonks was brewing, a pun based on Botox and ... I forgot what it was due to the last minute rush with getting this posted, and still can't remember. (Every time I try and think I start chanting 'Blotox, er, Boltox...' and have to stop before the madness sets in. So I really should have just said Amortentia;))

Glad to hear you liked the characterisations in this one - I was a bit gone on Remus myself by the time he was creating starlit skies everywhere. The whole story was sort of based around having to snatch what moments you can when work and war get in the way, and everyone being honest because of having to make the most of the opportunities that come their way, rather than because they'd knocked back the Veritaserum. (I've probably cheated with the prompt there - keep mentioning it, but nobody actually ever gets to take it, LOL).

Thanks a lot for your lovely comments. I was quite fond of this one by the end, so it's great to hear you enjoyed it too. And let me know your next dentist appointment, and I might do the "Breeding Nifflers" sequel for you. Now that would be an icon and a half! ;)
