Ah, so *this* is the start of their beautiful friendship.

You had me at "incriminating photos."

Lol, this is actual the second "first meeting" fic I've written for the pair. It was interesting to write it a different way.

It was a lot fun coming up with those photos. ^_^

This is such a great story! With each new picture, I became more curious what was coming next, and I love the interaction between the characters.

Oh, Sirius definitely deserves all that is coming to him in this department! :) I especially liked the image of the photo where he and Tonks are kicking each other. Well done - a funny little tale.

Lol, the kicking story actually developed kindof randomly when I was trying to figure how to describe that there was only three feet in the picture. Kindof a weird reason, but I was happy with the results. :)

What a fun first meeting!

I really love the start of this, first of all with the good explanation for what in the world was Sirius' stuff doing at Grimmauld Place, and also just such nice images in the photographs. I love the echo of the little Harry on his toy broomstick photo with the one of Tonks crashing into the back of the sofa. And of course her hair changing when she cries is too cute.

And I absolutely love the banter between Tonks and Mad-Eye when they arrive, especially him saying he taught her she should be on the alert for troll foot umbrella stands, lol.

Remus' 19th birthday is just priceless. What a hoot. I can so imagine his face with the dancer popped out. James and Sirius would so do that.

Really cute, fun piece. A nice way to start the morning.

That was one of the many things I was wondering about after DH. I wasn't sure how a letter that had been sent to Sirius way after he ran away from home and before his stint at Azkaban ended up at Grimmauld Place unless he carried both the letter and the picture on him somehow for fourteen years which I guess could be possible, though I imagine they would be pretty beat up if that were the case (since he probably would have had to carry them in his mouth as a dog). O_o

I took guess that toy brooms are a popular thing among wizard children. ^_^

The Tonks Mad-eye dialogue was incredibly fun to write, especially since I had been wanting to write more stuff between them since JKR randomly sprung on us that Tonks was his protegee.

I kept silently apologizing to Remus while I was writing the description of his birthday. Ah, poor Remus. ^_^

Thanks so much! Glad it brightened your morning! =)
