Hee hee, thank you! I'm glad you found it amusing. That was one of my favorite lines to write, because hearing Remus say that would entertain me no end, I think. ;)

I love every little bit of this! You did your prompts SO incredibly well--and the lady with the cats was so inspired and hilarious! My favorite part, for some reason, is when Remus is infatuated with Tonks' wrist. That just rang so true and silly/lovely to me. I also love Remus' thoughts about how stealthy Tonks is, refuting her own self-concept and giving her such credibility as an Auror (or giving her a rose-tinted appearance in Remus' eyes; either one works well, really!). And the spells at the end! Oh man, this was really a fun read. Really, really well done.

Thank you! I'm glad you liked the crazy cat lady; she was fun to write. And I'm pleased that you found the little moment with the wrists realistic. I find that it's always the little things, like the back of someone's neck, that are just so ... captivating.

I'm also happy that you found Stealthy!Tonks believable. I think she must have had to be, eventually, to have made it as an Auror.

Thanks again. :)

Priceless. LOL

This is just fun all the way through. The cat lady, the rampaging blue Dumbo car plowing through the forest, and of course all the twitching... Great combination and excellent use of prompts! lol
Delightful read!

Heh heh, glad you didn't think that line was TOO cheesy. :D

Thanks so much! I'm really pleased you liked it!

First off, I am so sorry it's taken me so long to review this. Though it was mighty fun to read it again ( ... )

Apologies for the late reply to your review! Someone just reviewed this fic a few days ago, and when I went to reply I noticed I hadn't replied to YOUR review (from March)! Oy. My organization for writing, reading, reviewing, and replying to reviews has gotten somewhat, er, disorganized apparently ( ... )

Enjoyed the zombie partner bit. I thought that was a Sirius set-up till it came to the cats. The Dumbo car was really hilarious. Is there some significance on the Dragon burial mound - does it feature in any other story?

Thank you! Glad you liked the zombie plot. And actually, in my mind, it WAS a Sirius set-up, although Remus and Tonks never found out. ;) I'm very pleased that you liked the Dumbo car scene. The image of Remus with a huge, twitching ear hanging out the window just makes me giggle. :D

The dragon burial mound was something I created for another fic and decided to use here since the Anglia was careening through the forest. It figures in several chapters of my Remus/Lily fic Friend or Foe, which can be found through my LJ linked to www.fanfiction.net (same pen name of Bratanimus there, too). It's a huge, long WIP that's around 37 chapters long at the moment. :)

Again, thanks for the review. I appreciate your kind words! :D
