Be the Light in My Lantern, chapter 5

BE THE LIGHT IN MY LANTERN

Summary: In which Remus and Tonks fight battles, arrest criminals, befriend werewolves, overcome inner demons and, despite it all, find themselves a happy ending. A love story, and a story of the Order years. (At long last, my Remus/Tonks epic, which has been years in the making!)

Gah, heartbreaking. I'm so glad the two of them are there for each other, this year at least.

Thought this line was especially lovely: every year October came and caught him breathless, felled him with his own failures.

It's very poignant the way this chapter juxtaposes Remus's wistful thoughts of having a home against the tragedy of Halloween 1981.

Thank you, thank you. This, too, was a first... The first one I wrote of Remus' many Halloweens.
