this was adorable, really lovely :) you're an exceptionally good writer, i love the similie "curling into the sofa as if he could fall between the cushions like spare change." , brilliant :) x

And reviews are definitely better than cake filled with meat. And stories like this are better than anything in the world, even my very own can of Lindsay Large olives. (Yes, I like olives from the can.) Tee hee, poor Remus. Eighteen and losing his girlfriend...of sorts...before ever getting some love. I adore your dialogue, as ever. Here, have another favorite for your trophy shelf.

Now, if you don't mind, I've got to see a man about a dog...

aww. that is just so sweet. :) i ended up liking this a lot more than i expected to. poor Lupin, lost his wench...oh well, i like Tonks better anyway. XD

i liked how Sirius showed a softer side, even though i love his snarky bad-ass attitude you usually give him. ground beef...nice touch.

You write Remus so so well. Most people put him into this kind of bookish, stereotyped role, but you've got him being a real person! It's fantastic, I love it so much!

I highly doubt this review will be better than cake, but nonetheless, I enjoyed this story and its ambiguous adorable-ness. That sounds like a tongue-twister. Anyway. XD

Who crocheted the granny square afghan Remus curled up under? If by any chance it was Sirius's mom, I would want Moony out from under there, NOW, as who knows WHAT she had crocheted in there!

Very clever dialogue and amusingly introspective Sirius-this story completely made my morning!
