Enjoyed this a lot. Tonks is the inquisitive sort, so the storyline works very well. I like that Remus finds it more difficult to tell the people he feels closest to, and even more that he explained that to Tonks.

And that image of Remus standing on the pier with windswept hair is incredibly vivid, and um incredibly sexy. ;)

Lovely piece, well done.

Thank you! I usually subscribe to the idea that everyone in the Order was breifed about Remus' condition before being inducted.

That's why it was very difficult for me when I recieved the prompt and this plot bunny came to mind immediately. I was not quite sure it would work with cannon. I'm glad you think it did and that I got the characters down believably.

Thanks for the review!

What a great fic! Everything about it is really nice.

Excellent use of an OC in this fic: it's very neat to see Tonks with a friend, and to see how Order business leads to secrets and perhaps a bit of isolation from the regular world.

I also really like Tonks' inquisitive/imaginitive side coming out, and how she's going into detective mode in her personal relationships. Makes for great romantic comedy potential. Their misunderstanding on the pier is hysterical -- and of course Remus is very sexy as Tonks is trying to convince herself he's a shady fellow. LOL

And I also love Remus' admission that he saved her for last because he feels close to her. Very sweet of him, and that combined with his sexiness is definitely meltworthy.

Thanks! I'm glad Celia worked. Even though it's a bit overdone I wanted to show the idea of the Order taking a large toll on Tonks' social life as well as her working life. I worked very hard to feel as though I portrayed that in a realistic way. I'm glad it worked.

And as soon as I saw the Beach front peir I had to do the Remus with sexily tossled hair bit.

Happy you liked that!

Liked this a lot, and it was an inventive use of your Wolfsbane prompt to have Tonks find it and assume Remus was up to something shady.

The pier was a great setting for their conversation, too, and I liked Remus' admission that it's hardest to tell the people he's close to - that was very nicely done.

I wasn't sure, orriginally, if I would use the beach front peir as the setting for Tonks and Celia's conversation, but in the end I liked the idea of Remus and Tonks on a pier at night was too good an idea to pass up. Thank you for reviewing and I'm glad you liked it!

The ending was fantastic. I know I'd want to spend some time alone with Remus in the dark ;) (But then again, wouldn't we all? :D)

Very different use of the Wolfsbane prompt. I was interested to see how that one would be used. And somehow, I didn't even guess the mysterious "villain" Tonks was speaking about was Remus. :D

[freakinwinky]

But wouldn't we all? I quite agree dear! ;)Thank you so much for reviewing and I'm glad you liked it!

I really enjoyed the use you made of Tonks' inquisitive side and giving her an over-active imagination to go with it. Lots of comic potential and misunderstandings there, and the scene on the pier worked really well, plus you wrote a very attractive Remus!

Nice job, especially not doing the expected with the Wolfsbane. I'm a bit worried about me now though, as I rather liked the sound of Robert Blackwood and his whole backstory. ;)
