Beautiful! I can see how this can lead into the relationship between Tonks and Remus that Rowling showed us in the books... but I love how you chose to go against Rowling's explanation for her brown, colorless hair after Sirius's death. I quite like yours.

The teapot, I feel, is a lovely little element that adds a lot. The whistling and shrilling and screaming you described reflect the emotions of the characters. I've always thought a whistling teapot would be great for just this - and have always wanted to work one into a short, mournful piece of my own - so it was delightful to see someone else have this same idea and effectively execute it.

"Remus rose anyway..." - Now, this sentence seems like a bit of a mouthful. Perhaps try splitting it in two or rearranging it, if you don't mind?

"The stoneware had cracked and was bleeding tea out onto the table." - Love the effect of "bleeding tea"! It's absolutely perfect for the mood of this piece. It adds to the solemnity of the scene.

All in all, this is a marvelous little story and well worth the read. I'm glad I clicked on it.

Good job.

That's so sad. I love it, but it's so sad. She's like a psychic or clairvoyant or something, theoretically. Like how spirits talk through a clairvoyant, and people see a spirit in Tonks or whatever. Great story, really good.

Tata!

Death is a horrible, horrible thing for those left behind. It's interesting, readin about Tonks. I haven't read too many fanfics with her in it, mostly because I don't like how they have her. You do a great job, though.

This is a great little fic that really explains Tonks' character, and of course interactions with Remus. I love the idea that the clumsiness springs from being a metamorphmagus. It makes perfect sense to me.

That was exceptionally sweet. Very touching.

I like it - you are very talented! Write more like that!

a very touching one shot. i loved the flow of the entire story and how it comes full circle. i also love the little bit about tonks's past. great job.

Lovely story and one of the best one shots I've ever had the privlege to read. You're a wonderful writer (to bring so much emotion and depth into a character using less than 30 words is amazing - that's a hard feat and I applaud you for that).

I think this is a very nice story :)

Wow. I think I'm in love with this fic. A lot of it is because you've touched upon things I've decided about Tonks - namely, how her natural body looks like Sirius and the other Blacks, and the fact that her clumsiness springs from being a Metamorphmagus and not always having the same body. At first I was going to point out how Tonks said you couldn't learn how to be a Meta (too long to spell out the entire thing, although this note more than makes up for it), but it's such an integral part of the story that I quickly overcame that prejudice. Besides, you can rationalize it by saying Tonks would say such a thing because of her experience with Leah. I'm a big fan of ignoring things characters actually say if you can make a good story out of fudging the details slightly. Which you did. It was very emotional and all around fitting. You did a marvelous job, so congratulations.

WTF is i'm fucking confused now...unless..did you make some Leah person Nymphadora,Tonks,well,if you have im very very confused..yet i'm always that confused..Well plz tell me cause this is not helping my confusiness
Sincerely Confused Yours...Leveen Tonks..Or Jo (Ya i know their completely different names..but its a nick so...deal with it)

nice little sentimental fic.

Wonderfully written and very touching story. Tonks back story showed a nice glimpse into her mind. Hope you write more or another Tonks fanfic soon.

I think that was the best fanfiction I have read in ages...or at all. I love Lupin in any case but it's really nice to see you handled the characters like they were written, not so they sounded awkward or stupid. And the angle was a little more abstract than usual. It was really poignant - almost feel like crying! oracle-x-
