A/N This is a worthy companion to my fic "Harry Potter and His Worst DayMares", where it makes its first (but not the last!) appearance as a single "fairy tail" from Remus Lupin's favorite book (a school-time gift from the late Sirius Black).

Disclaimer A: All the ideas behind this story belong to our illustrious and industrious Ministry of Magic.

Disclaimer B: All the personae and events mentioned are strictly fictional and exist only in my non-existing imagination.

Disclaimer C: No magical beasts or creatures were injured during the writing of this story.
