He ran and hid. He began to wonder. Had Dog served the Darkness all along? Had he desired the werewolf and not Moony, hoping to become an even more formidable weapon against the Light? Moony had every reason to be glad he did not grant Dog’s wish yet his heart remained sore.
Really effective way of telling Remus's and Sirius's story, and the subplot about Remus turning Sirius into a were-dog was a nice way to explain Remus's guilt and fear over Tonks's pregnancy. Well done.
