I can't wait till the queues come back up.
You have to continue this fanfic.
Well... you don't have to but I would be extremely happy if you did!
Author's Response: Thank you indijo. I'm glad you are enjoying it. I certainly plan to continue. I hope it continues to make you happy. :) Fair warning, though… I'm pretty sure the queue will be back up long before I get the next chapter ready for submission. Hopefully not nearly as long as this last, but I'm still recovering from surgery, and from the amazingness that was Deathly Hallows, so I'm working in slow motion at the moment. :*) But I am working! Thank you for the encouragement.
*waves at previous reviewers* I'm not ignoring your lovely reviews. I think the site is being bombarded since the release of the Deathly Hallows and I keep getting AK'd from too many users. It took me 5 tries to reply to iluvkrum *points down the row* so I will come back and try another time. It is taking up so much time that I could be writing. I'll just say thank you all, for now. I really appreciate your reviews. :)

Yay, more! I had to tear myself away from the new HP to come read this. I like it that much. It was great, and always so cute! Ha, poor Remus, he's always being embarassed.
Author's Response: Oh, my, Gin_Drinka. You do know how to flatter me. :*) Thank you so much. I really am thrilled you like it so much.

I have had that conversation between Will and Remus (I was in Will's shoes, however), perfectly written! Even though Remus is my absolute dream and I wait with agony for each update of MoB for more of him, I can't wait for sparks to fly between James and Lily! You've captured the characters so well I hope you do write them in - or, perhaps, write a story from their POV *jumps for joy at the thought*. Can't wait to read part II. Thank you - thank you. Always worth the wait.
Author's Response: :) Good for you! I personally think everyone should get that talk, so well done for having the nerve. ;) I haven't been there yet, but when the time comes...*shudders at very thought* Well, I plan to include J/L, but it won't be nearly so involved, since it is Remus’ perspective of them. A whole J/L story...*dies* I'd have to get a much better feel for how I see them to tackle that. ;) I'd be working on it for years...oh, yeah, I've been working on this for years. *dies again* Thank you, Mariangelo. I really appreciate the reviews.

*Sigh* How lovely to have this update and wonderful chapters to tide me the few remaining hours until DH. Remus truly is my heart and I like the character you've created for him. I do think Lindi's a bit of a cream puff in this last bit, but all in all, she's just how I would see Remus' first love. She seems beautiful and smart, naturally, and has that damsel-in-distress thing that sould make Remus feel like the big romantic hero. I can't tell you how I wait with bated breath for each update! Love, love LOVE MoB!!!
Author's Response: Aw, Mariangelo, thank you so much. Lindi is "a bit of a cream puff". *nods* lol There really are reasons she isn't in Gryffindor. *nods vigorously* She's no Lily, Ginny or Hermione, I'm afraid. Don't expect to see her suddenly becoming an Auror and fighting 4 Death Eaters single handedly. ;) Lindi's no hero, but Remus does like the chance to be the romantic hero that he is. *hehe* Thank you for the lovely review.

Don't know why anyone got detention...after all they were all practicing transfiguration, and you don't say that anyone ended up in the hospital wing. McGonagall can be so over reactive sometimes.
I am getting almost as frightened as Lindi. I hope she stays well away from Greyback!
Author's Response: Good point. That McGonagall needs to lighten up sometimes. *loves stern McGonagall, especially when she's being oh-so cool, as she can be* ;) Greyback always made my skin crawl, but more now after DH than ever. *shivers* Thank you, Buckbeak22.

Ecxellent... Reminds me of the time I gave my sister's boyfriend the "Talk". My father was overseas, and as the oldest sibling I felt it only right... He was about as embarrassed as Remus, and she got so mad at me she didn't speak to me for a week!
Great chapter as always. Thank you.
Author's Response: I knew there was something I liked about you, Buckbeak22! LOLOL :)

Author's Response: Oh, thanks, Cyns. I do like to write conversation, don't I? :*) I did enjoy DH! LOVED it...even though she....*sobs* *doesn't want to think about it* Thank you for reviewing. I really appreciate it.

Loved the two part chaper itt was so good. The subtley of Greyback was good too. Hope you update soon
Author's Response: Thank you, muggler180. I'm glad you enjoyed it, but it has messed me all up. I'm supposed to be on CH 45 and accoriding to my files I am currently writing 45. But...*shakes head* my files will forever be messed up due to the faulty word counting on my beloved MNFF. *sigh* Fortunately, it doesn't affect you, my lovely readers. :) Well, except that I don't need anything else to mess my poor brain up. ;)

Wow, great job. I saw the awkwardness I was wanting, that's good. You captured everyone perfectly, and the conversations were great, too. This whole story is great.

ooh, well done. what took so long, though. i was waiting forever. is lindi going to eventually catch on that remus is a werewolf? she's a smart girl, i would hope it wouldn't take her too long to suspect. not that i want remus to end up hurt, but...i'm a sucker for drama. look forward to more. super excited about this weekend!!!!!!
Author's Response: Thank you, iluvkrum. Yes, it took a while. I've been sick and in the hospital and now recovering from surgery, so I'll probably be a bit slow for a while. Not to mention the release of the DH *thought it was amazing* *wishes she could say more, but will not spoil for anyone*. So, yeah...I know you aren't expecting an answer to your question. ;) After this weekend, I think I need a break from drama...LOL but I'll try not to disappoint. Thanks for reviewing.

Author's Response: :) Thanks, Amanda! I can't wait either. And I'm scared to death of it. I hope it turns out well! We'll have to wait a couple more days to see. However, you don't have to wait for the next chapter of MoB ;) In fact, due to my verbosity, you don't have to wait for the next 2. <.< Hope you enjoy them.

Chapter: Decisions, Gag Gifts and Worries Aplenty
moonymaniac, this entire fic has been incredible. i was reading the 5th book today and i was reading the scene where James tortmented Snape. all throughout that i kept relating to your story and i read that chapter in a way i had never read it before. so while i thank u for presenting this awesome version of Lupins life as a Hogwarts teen, i also have to thank u for essentially screwing up my perspective on reading all of the books, dating back to PoAzk and likely continuing into Deathly Hallows. thanks!
Author's Response: Oh, wow, first of all, thank you for the compliments. I'm flattered that my story would make an impression, but of course, screwing up your perspective on the actual books isn't what I would have gone for. It has been my intention to keep the characters and the story line as canon compliant as possible, with the hopes that it would sort of flow right into the first book. I'm not sure exactly what would make you view the books differently from what I have written (with the exception of perhaps viewing Remus as the amazing wonderful star that he should be, instead of just as a cool secondary character *wink*.) I have a friend on the forums who doesn’t read FF because of this. If you feel like dropping me a pm or an email, I’d be interested in knowing what you view differently now. But for now, I don't know what to say, except that I'm sorry if it has hurt your enjoyment, somehow. :*/
