Oh man, this was amazing! I loved the easiness between Sirius and Remus' relationship, the light banter and how they just belong together, you know?
And this line: "Yeah," he said. "This feels real." made me feel all warm and happy.

Especially since, in the middle of all the warm and fuzzy and normal life, there's that tension. The characters can see it from the corner of their eyes, and they know the danger is real but they couldn't put a name to it (which is what makes it so scary). I was kinda scared about how this was gonna end, because 'sitting ducks' and people getting killed all around them, but no no this should have a happy ending! And it did. And the release of tension was so palpable. AAH.

(Also I was kinda surprised at how similar the theme of my piece is to this one, omg. *g*)

Eeh thank you :D You know I love mixing lightheartedness/funny and angst, so I'm glad it worked this time as well XD

(IKR WHAT ARE WE, TWINS?)

DUUUDE, I wasn't the only one who noticed, apparently. I saw someone comment on my comic saying there's something very similar about mine and your entries and how they liked it! *g*

[nerak_rose]

heehe, awesome! :D

[botticelliyeah]

oh this is such a creative and interesting idea! i want to know more about it! i would love to read the stories about them first discovering these oddities and i would love to see them readjusting to the magical world after it.

i really liked this, i think you built the tension and mystery really nicely. i wish there was more of it! :-)

[nerak_rose]

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it. :) And yeah, I wish there was more too! Time restrictions kept me from really fleshing this out, but I hope it's all right as is. :)

Neat story!!! I love Sirius waking up as a dog and Remus able to heal people and both being clueless about it but Remus turning into a werewolf was normal. This is great!!

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it. :)
