Oh very nice!! haha yeah, I do think that for that first kiss, they might have needed to be both somewhat sloshed. >.>

Very nice weaving of the Christmas programme with the plot, and I like your characterisation.

I like it, overall. Awkward R/T FTW ^_^

Thank you very much! I love writing Awkward!R/T. ;) I grew up being forced to watch programs like that on television at Christmas time, and I remember feeling much the same way: hating them and loving them at the same time, lol. I'm glad that you liked the interweaving of the Christmas show throughout, and I'm especially pleased that you thought the characterization worked. Thanks again. :)

Lovely read, can so relate to Tonks and Remus and their feelings about christmas.
Somehow I like your idea of candy canes in whyskey, should try that out myself *grin*

[bratanimus]

Thank you! Yeah, Christmas does sometimes bring up things you don't want to think about, and I figured Remus and Tonks would be no different. I liked having them find solace in each other. Hmm, I may have to try to candy cane in whiskey thing, too, although I can't promise it won't be abominable! ;)

Thank you! I'm very glad you thought so! :)

This was lovely. You gave so many details it felt like I was in the room with them too. I apologize if this is something fan-fic authors don't like to hear-but I'd love to see a sequel.=)

[bratanimus]

Thank you very much! I'm glad you felt you were there with them. And I think the desire for a sequel is some of the nicest praise I could get, hee hee. Thanks! I'm so pleased that you liked it. :D

Haha! That was awesome. I love drunk fally over Remus! Best line: Remus Lupin is drunk, and he just fell on the floor. Because of me..

[bratanimus]

LOL, I'm glad you liked klutzy!Remus. I wanted to give him an opportunity to be as accident prone as Tonks (and to let Tonks stay upright for once and simply be the cause of the accidents), so it was fun playing with that reversal. Thanks for reading! :)
