Remus is too noble for his own good. That's why the bad guys always have the upper hand. The good guys don't want to sink to their level. War has no rules, and if the good guys don't realize that they'll lose every time.

Woohoo! Everyone's in character and well-written! Thank you!

Wonderful story, you have a refreshing writing style :)

nice work!

Oh, I want a werewolf!
By the way, excellent job at explaining everything without giving too much away at once. I like how you wrote it. Well done.
Cheers,

Wow... This was just... wow

You wrote this beautifully! Really beautifully! I think you're characterization was perfect, as was your take on the relationship between Remus and Tonks.

I very much liked the reference to the comment made by Sirius on valentines day. It made Peter seem more human and described the look on his face perfectly.

Keep up the fantastic work!

This was very good. It was lovely to see more work from you m- I love everything Tonks/Remus that you write. This isn't what I quite expected from the summary but still it was an interesting read. As always your writing is amazing and excellent! Please update Werewolf soon - us fans are going crazy at lack of it! Keep writing - ElizaHPFAN

I have to admit, this story comes as a bit of a surprise. I've gotten so used to your happy, charming little 'amor omnia vincit' stories that this took me a few minutes to reset my mind to.

That said, this is exceptional. Lupin's emotions are raw, vivid, and real. As are Peter's words when he accuses Lupin, telling him he doesn't know what he's capable of. Perhaps truer words have never been spoken by a rat. I also liked the way that you make the forest come alive and become a malevolent entity.

What I think you've done here is make a story where the line between human, animal, and dark creature is blurred so much that all three become one. It's really quite terrifying and I think that everyone can relate to the feeling of utter terror that you've successfully managed to create.

For some reason, you always put up a story to match the mood that I'm in, which only helps draw me into the story more. Once again, I stand in awe of your work. Great job!

Spectacular as per usual. Most of all, I think, I like the continual motif of darkness - extremely clever, you wove it around and through your words and created the perfect atmosphere. You always bring such a beautiful, real *depth* to Remus that I rarely see elsewhere, and don't even get me started on your characterisation of Tonks =P suffice to say, fantastic.

Great fic!

Very thorough. I liked Lupin's explanation of why he couldn't be with Tonks.

The last line was genius!

Wonderful job!

aww! I love everything you write! You've just got their characters so perfect! Please keep churning stuff out, as I love it all ;D

Ps. A while back you told me about a fic called consequences by Pandora Jones, but I can't find it. I don't suppose you could give me the url? Thanks xx

hi there,

this was extremely good written in my opinion. =)
I liked the story!

Now, where's my personal Remus?? XD

*loves it*

Fantastic!
I always do hate the sad endings, but very well done.
I can't properly express to you how much I love your stories!
Update with something again soon! : )

Good story--I think experiences like this is what made Remus strong enough to finally accept the love that Tonks wanted to give him all along. Thanks for posting this.

ah, so not a squirrel or a vole, but a rat! very nice. i honestly don't know what i was expecting them to come across in the forest, but i guess it wasn't peter, since i was fairly surprised at that turn of events.
but gosh! i loved this. great to see more of a peter/remus showdown than we ever got in the books. very interesting point peter brought up, about who remus would sacrifice to save tonks... there's never a right answer to those sorts of questions, is there?
oh, and i like starting off with peter's thought about not being afraid of the dark, and then bringing that around full circle with remus mentioning that he always was. i must say, after reading tons of fics about remus' fears about himself and what he's capable of, this was a fresh, original take on that whole issue. rather than focusing on his wolfish aspects, it's really about the darkness within him as a man. VERY nice. perhaps that's even a better argument...
but i won't get into that right now. my point IS, fab stuff, as always! :)
