Oh, I love this! The rhythm is haunting until near the end, where it gets to be a mixture of tender and hot. What a wonderful take. It sounds very in character with Remus' voice as well.

Thank you! I'm glad you thought Remus was in character. I worry about that, lol. :)

[wildmagelet]

Just awesome. The most intense moments of Remus's life in a few hundred words and illustrated by his scars. Fabulous writing, as usual! :)

Thank you for the review!

I tried to make this shorter, but I couldn't condense it anymore. :D

This is lovely. Despite the difficult subject matter, it ends on a really positive note. Great job!

[devonwood]

Thank you! I couldn't leave poor Remus being all mopey and depressed. :)

Interesting - every scar does have a story, and I like how you've made the comparisons and highlighted the memories.
Good job on the prompt. :)

[devonwood]

Thanks for the review!

Remus does need some happy memories, the poor guy. :D

Really liked this. I loved the idea of Tonks marking her territory, and some scars having happier memories and associations than others.

Thank you for the review!

I loved the idea of Tonks marking her territory

She wants everyone to know that he is hers. Granted, I'm not sure how many people are looking at shirtless Remus, but it was the thought that counted. ;) :D
