You are so good at angst! This is the second time I've read this and it still makes me sniffle. Poor Tonks, I want to hug her.

Aw, thank you very much, sniffles and all!:D Which is sort of good to hear, lol. I think I gave them both quite a hard time in this - and me, trying to get the end right on a very brain dead day - so all three of us may need something a little more light-hearted next...

And I hope you've paid a visit to Meta very recently. :)

Hello. Found my way here from your biog page at Checkmated, and friended your fic library so I can work my way through your fabulous fic - I'm so very pleased I found your archive ( ... )

Hi! It's nice to meet you here!:D (And on a side note, being something of a horse lover, I really like your icon.)

'Thank you' doesn't seem quite adequate for your lovely words about this fic - suffice it to say, they certainly made my day. I can't tell you how pleased I am to hear that you had that reaction to it as it's one of the fics where I've felt I've come closest to saying what I wanted to about the characters and their relationship. Luck was on my side when I got the prompt 'Want' as that was just so them.

your Tonks is such a brave, fierce and determined young womanI'm glad she reads like that as that's just what's intended. I'm not very keen on the theory that she's verging on pathetic for being depressed in HBP - they're at war and people are dying, he's in a dangerous situation, one that she must know is the ultimate nightmare for him mentally, if not physically as well, and I'm sure most people, whether they show it or not, aren't exactly leaping for joy when a relationship goes pear-shaped. It was important to me ( ... )

How can this have only two comments? There are a basket full elsewhere, yeah?

Brilliant. I rec'd this to two readers today who argued with me that Remus isn't sexy.

Apologies for taking so long to reply - there's been a holiday, and an after holiday where I just seem to have moved furniture around in preparation for decorators. But I'm now finally at the computer once more, hemmed in by my own wardrobes!

Thank you very much, both for enjoying this and reccing it. Especially for finding Remus sexy because of course he is! Tonks can't have gone through all that emotional roller coaster with him simply because he made nice toast. ;) I've made a note to write another fic emphasising the sexiness if there's not enough out there, lol.

Thanks again.:D
