"In time, the mind, protecting its sanity, covers the wounds with scar tissue and the pain lessens. But it is never gone." Every time Teddy greets her with "Wotcher, Nana," and his silver eyes twinkle in his heart-shaped face, it's a knife through her heart. Andromeda studies her grandson.

The annual visit to Dudley Dursley and family is not an event that James Potter anticipates - largely because he doesn't understand Monopoly. Luckily, he is a contemporary of Teddy Lupin. There aren't many people who can teach life lessons while explaining how to cheat your way through real-estate games.

The site took it down so it's back up now. Sequel to Voldy and Crew: Diary of an Evil Wizard in the Hood. Voldemort's back and putting the fun in "fundamentalism". In which Voldemort discovers Kneazles are lactose intolerant, Peter has a thing for his best lieutenant, and Wordsworth is not a member of Take That.

You can tell a lot about a person based on the bedfellows they keep - whether they be a person's best friend or a notorious werewolf. Musings from the mattress of Nymphadora Tonks.

"How do I love thee? Let me count the ways." Tonks reflects on her husband.

"It has been said you will run into the love of your life five times before you actually meet them, learn their name and become a part of their life"

It is the first time Remus has held a child since he was babysitting James' and he's apprehensive but he holds his arms in position dutifully and takes his first look at his baby son.

"Lupin strolled away from the bed and over to the werewolf, who had no visitors and was looking rather wistfully at the crowd around Mr. Weasley…"

"I'll meet his eyes and instead of wishing he would stride across the hallway, take me in his arms and snog me senseless, I'll look away, take a deep breath and batter him to death with that bloody umbrella stand". Tonks muses on her absent ex-boyfriend.

The baby kicked lightly, recognising the voice it remembered from months ago, close at hand once more. "So are you coming home or not?" Lupin goes back to Tonks.

AU. "I think I overstepped the mark. I'm sorry. Look, I think that I said worse. I don't believe you're trying to replace Sirius." On Father's Day, Harry visits the man he deems to be his last remaining father figure.

"Who do you think he is?" she whispered to Lupin, leaning closer to him but peering at the Order, now assembling in the kitchen of Grimmauld Place, her gaze catching each man and scrutinising. "The werewolf, I mean."

"I would have thought you would know how it feels to be a Neville and yet you repeatedly make a mockery of him." Snape is forced to draw parallels between himself, the new Defence Professor and the most incompetent child he's ever taught.

James sighed. "I want you to know that this is the real measure of how much I love you, Al. I am giving you my only chat-up line that actually works."

Re-post. During his second break-in to Hogwarts Castle, Sirius finds the Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom.

"Is it scary? Being in a big castle? Ghosts? Making friends? Being noticed? Being away from Mum and Dad?" On the eve of his first day at Hogwarts, Albus has some questions for his brother.

Lupin slammed a red envelope on the kitchen table. "It's not a Howler. It's a Valentine's card."

Lupin and Sirius sort through yet more of Lupin's photographs, this time from 1979-81. Sequel to 'Where Dwell the Brave at Heart'.

"Only in the memories of a sole middle-aged man was he funny, a brilliant Potioner, and covered in cake mix." The night that Lupin recieves the news of Peter's death, he forces himself to acknowledge Peter as more than the traitor he grew up to be.

"Suddenly serious, he met Lupin's eyes. "Remus, you're my only friend in the world. Please."" After the events in the Shrieking Shack, Sirius visits his old friend to find that their reunion doesn't go quite as smoothly as he had hoped.
