So Tonks' 90s gear is retro-cool for Hogwarts students of the 2010s is it, excellent :) I love the idea of her daughter rummaging through her clothes. They seem like such a sweet mother-daughter pair and Maura's definitely a chip of the old block. I love the idea of the old locket that Remus charmed for her and that she still treasures 20 years later.

This is such a cute little fic :)

Sooo cute. I always loved the idea of them having a little girl to go with Teddy, expecailly since I really loved the idea of Remus having beautiful Father/Daughter Moments with her. And getting annoyed about boyfriends.

And if she's anything like Tonks, then yes. Very annoyed about boyfriends heee. Lovely story! I'd love to hear more about them XD

I really like the mother-daughter relationship here, and Maura's forthright question about the dent in the locket, and then her attitude when Tonks explains, is a wonderful echo of her mother's own no-nonsense honesty. There's a lot of charm in this story, particularly in Tonks' memories of the night she got the locket, and the fact that it's the one thing she won't lend to Maura.

I think Remus must be very proud of his daughter as well, and how nice to read that he's cured of all the 'silly notions' he once had!:D

I like Maura! Firstly she has a pretty name, and secondly, I love how she takes after her mum. I like the story of the locket most though - the idea of Remus doing his best to get Tonks something lovely even early in their relationship, and Tonks being happy no matter what.

Also, how cute is that hair-pulling thing? Aw, Remus.

Lovely fic, excellent idea!

What a sweet mother/daughter moment! And I could completely see Remus giving that locket to Tonks as a gift. Wish it had happened this way in canon . . . Great job! :D
