Apologies for the late reply to your review! Someone just reviewed this fic a few days ago, and when I went to reply I noticed I hadn't replied to YOUR review (from March)! Oy. My organization for writing, reading, reviewing, and replying to reviews has gotten somewhat, er, disorganized apparently. ;)

Anyway, THANK YOU for the kind words. I'm really glad you liked Grouchy!Remus. I had a lot of fun writing him, and am pleased that you enjoyed him as much as I did. I also had fun writing the immature sniping between him and Sirius. I can see them bringing that out of each other.

Glad you liked the scenes of dialogue. It was interesting to have Bill, for once, be the one to really get Remus thinking. But as you said, I think it was a combination of everything - Sirius' constant haranguing, the fake break-up, etc.

I'm glad you liked the two action scenes (zombies and Ford Anglia). I was worried that, with two action scenes, this fic would seem too "choppy," and I really wanted make it longer and add a third action scene because for some reason we tend to appreciate things when they happen in threes (setup, delivery, punch line; acts 1, 2, 3; etc.). But I'm glad this worked well enough without it. I think what happened was I simply ran out of time before I needed to post this, so I decided to make it a two-parter.

Heh heh, I'm pleased that you liked the Not!Zombie scene, and that you got a chuckle out of seeing Remus allergic to cats, lol. There goes the good ship Lycanthropic Feline, huh? LOL! :D

Glad you liked The Kiss, with all the giggles surrouding it. It seemed a natural resolution of everything that had happened before, and I'm very pleased that it satisfied.

Thanks again for reading, and so sorry for forgetting to reply! My To-Do list has gotten so ridiculous that I should probably just start from scratch, eh? :D
