I really, really enjoyed that! The dawning relationship between Remus and Tonks was so much fun! I don't suppose there's any chance of you writing continuations on from this story for them pre (or even during) OotP is there? :)

Thank you very much! This was a departure for me, but I really enjoyed writing it, so I'm thrilled to know you enjoyed reading it.

Actually I'm really keen to write more in this 'verse. POA is such a different place for Remus, and I've never done a fic where they hooked up before she knew about him being a werewolf, so that will be very interesting. Not to mention everything he's hiding about Sirius... I'm vglad you're interested! We'll see what the next prompts bring. (Though hopefully something shorter, LOL!)

Really, I appreciate your lovely words. :)

You know? I don't think I've ever read a prisoner of Azkaban era romance before. I was surprised to see how well this worked! It was orriginal, clever and funny, and it incorporated all the aspects of their relationship and respective characters that I simply adore! Great job!

I'm so happy you thought POA was a fresh setting for R/T, and more than that, that it worked! Thank you for your lovely words.

Congratulations, you have successfully managed to distract me from writing my English essay. And also managed to make me laugh in the school library. You have my thanks.
I'd be kind of curious to see Ron and Hermione's first meeting with Tonks, when she asks them about the Snidgets.
What would Tonks's reaction be when she discovers that Dung is part of the Order?
I would really like to see more of this 'verse.

As an English major I should probably be ashamed of myself for distracting you for your essay. But we could do with a little more laughter in the libraries. ;)

Anyway, I'm very pleased you liked this and that it's piqued your interest about other aspects not covered here. I'd like to do more in this verse, too, so hopefully the Jumble gods will be good to me in Round Two!

Thank you very much for taking the time to read and comment.

OMG, I don't know how you do it, but every time you write a story I become convinced that that's how it happened. Every time.

The tension is just so perfect here-- I especially loved the whole "Do you want to solve my mysteries" bit and the flirtation surrounding their time in the Hog's Head. Made my heart pitter-patter.

There are just a couple of small typos, due I'm sure to the encroaching deadline. And this line: "I've tracked mud your floor all over your rug!" wasn't quite clear.

Really, really fantastic job.

Aw, thank you so very much!

I'm really pleased to know you feel my stories have a realistic quality to them, because I really do think it's important to try to steep them in canon as much as possible, even if it's just with little details like the Crookshanks-Scabbers chase in the Magical Menagerie.

This is a new Remus and Tonks for me, and as I mentioned above, the first proper "how they met" fic I've done, so I'm also very relieved to know you felt the attraction between them worked, especially at the Hog's Head where things came to, well, a head.

I really do appreciate your lovely feedback (and the typo catch)!

I'm so excited to have written a new setting for R/T! Thanks very much for your lovely words. I'm really glad you liked my characterizations; POA Remus was a lot of fun to explore because he's really at a high point in his life, and I like giving him a girlfriend then, as well. And Kingsley wrote himself, which was fun, too.

I really appreciate your lovely comments.
