That was a very special fanfic, particularly after TDH. :) It was nice to see one of their earlier moments together, as well as the missing moment during TDH - I always wondered how the problem wass resolved.

Thank you very much. I felt that the reconciliation after the Hospital Wing was done to death after HBP but there are very few reconciliation stories after Remus did the Noble Prat thing again and it was something I knew I wanted to write when I got my prompts. And R/T being R/T of course, they're not going to just say sorry and kiss and make up; they're far more intersting than that ;)

Thanks very much. I'm always desperately worried that I've not quite gotten the charactarisation right so I'm glad you think I managed it.

I think this fic is spot-on in suggesting that it would be harder for Tonks to forgive Remus and believe in him once he'd run away a second time. The flashback scene worked nicely as the trigger for their reconciliation, a reminder to both of them of how much they do love each other. And the comparison between kisses before that could banish the impending darkness of OotP/HBP, and kisses now that give them a world without the bad end that we all know is coming, was really interesting.

Even someone as forgiving as a Hufflepuff can only be hurt so many times no?

Glad you like the flashback scene; I originally thought about doing it as a second chapter (then I reread the rules of the jumble ;D) but I think it works better as a flashback and a trigger for Tonks forgiving the noble prat.

And the kisses, well I couldn't resist. If there's anybody who needs kisses capable of banishing the darkness its those two.

Glad you liked!

This was a sweet story. I even really liked the part where whiny Sirius interrupts them so that they can entertain him. I'm such a Sirius fangirl.

Glad you liked.

I don't think any OOTP era R/T is complete without some sort of interaction with Sirius. Because of course he's going to be an adorable pain in the backside for them!
