WOW. SO much to love here!

I loved the Good Auror/Bad Auror thing with Tonks and Dawlish. Of course, they weren't playing . . . ;)

I loved Neville! You gave him a hint of foreshadowing of the future badass he becomes. Very nicely done.

I loved Remus' protection of Neville.

Your ending floored me. I totally did not see that coming. Excellent work!!! :)

Oh this was very intriguing and inventive! I always enjoy reading different scenarios about when Remus and Tonks would first meet, and it's such an exciting thought that it could be during PoA.
I can easily picture Remus wanting to stay with Neville like he did here, and it's great to see the first few lines Remus and Tonks say to each other.
And what a surprising twist at the end! I can't imagine the frustration Sirius must be feeling, the desperation to be believed.
Lovely job!

Thanks!

I always liked the idea of Remus and Tonks meeting well before OoTP. So I thought I'd try PoA.
