I finally began to read fanfiction inbetween the publications of HBP and DH. You can guess what character I was the most interested in. I was looking for some happiness for Remus Lupin, but was surprised when it seemed JKR's idea of a good time for the unemployed werewolf was an immature woman with pink hair and a promising career ahead of her with a yen to "keep" him. So I started reading fanfiction to "sse" how Remus and Tonks worked. Bored quickly, that lead to reading Marauder gen fic and eventually, I clicked R/S fic and was surprised at how well that "worked." LOL! And here I am still entralled......
