 JabberwockySlayer 2007-01-08 . chapter 1Hmm...Now I've always believe Remus wasn't entirely a melancholic do-good-er, and your portrayal of him was...Well, I'm not exactly sure how I would classify it. Your writing style is, I think, what gave the story its punch. The fact there was very little description, outside of the dialogue I mean, allows the reader to imagine the scene in his(or her) own way. Excellently done there--that takes a certain amount of skill. I've only one bone to pick.
Remus, agreed, has a darker side, but however dark a person is, I do not think anyone would go as far to use 'Crucio' on a previous friend. This story is obviously post-Voldemort's demise. Now, I've never fought in such a battle, but I believe that the relief of defeating such a foe would make someone think again about using a curse so rampantly used by said defeated enemy. (I hope that made some amount of sense.) That is the only part where Remus seems slightly out of character.
I see you have moved away from Harry Potter (based on asumptions about recent posts). I'm very sorry to read that. I should like to see more of this particular Remus.

 Omnicat 2006-12-12 . chapter 1I don't want to say I liked it... it was too cruel for that. But damn, what else am I going to say? Okay fine, I liked it! I liked the merciless twist you gave Remus' character, the sharp words and Tonks' thoughts. Even worse, I loved it. *sigh* |
