There's something so calm and soothing about this... It's so nice to see them enjoying something normal together (before it all goes to hell in a handbasket). Very well done. =D

Thank you - I was going for that, and as it's part of something much much bigger, it was supposed to be a little interlude. I'm glad you liked it :)

It is refreshing to see these little moments of normalcy amidst and apart from the war and Sirius and the Order. I like it, alot. :)

I totally want to read about Remus watching a show about robots. He would so be the type to give bemused commentary.

This is a lovely little interlude for them, and I like that you've touched on the idea that Grimmauld gets to everyone, and Remus takes advantage of the chance to get out and clear the cobwebs.

Thank you! I so want to write Remus and Tonks watching Doctor Who now ;)

The new, longer story I'm working on deals with Grimmauld Place as not being the sunny, cheerful place with Sirius pestering Kreatcher and being cheeky like I think most of us have written before, so this was just testing the waters. I'm glad that it works for you.

Oh, do! That would be all kinds of fun.

[jadeddiva]

Thank you - that's what I was going for :) I'm glad you liked it.
