Now I think you should write an AU in which Tonks throws turnips at Remus...because that really might have changed things before they had to argue a million times!

I think this is a totally realistic take on Tonks at this time. And I want to cry for her not wanting to cry. Poor girl. :(

Oh, no! How did I not respond to this? (Maybe it was when LJ was acting up?)

But thanks so much for reading, and for the kind comments -- it's good to know you thought this was a realistic take on Tonks.

And now I totally want to write the Turnip AU, lol.

Aw yeah, me and the ability to pop by and randomly comment...randomly. :P

Anyway, I really, REALLY liked this one. Especially that last line. It's just SO perfect. Like she's so angry and frustrated and drained that she could just cry. Except that she can't.

Lovely work on this one!
