| JayMay ♥ Big, yellow duckie <3 Darn my net. *Strangles it* * Pokes net* Something is like so wrong with it. NOOOOO! I have been trying all day to get online, but no. It just keeps saying: The Operation timed out. Or that “Cannot Find Server.” I WANT TO DO SOMETHING DRASTIC.
But I wouldn’t say that, after all that trouble, I didn’t find something worthwhile enough online to involve myself in. I found something that compensated for it all. *Snuggles Cass’s ff*
Ern, you rock. Seriously, your ff is just so lovingly detailed and perfect and balanced and real….It makes me forget everything else. I read so many ffs that I just don’t have time to write long posts, so I often make them short. I mean, I would have liked to post a nice and long reply here, but I have at least 18 other ffs to visit. SO, back to your lovable ficcie: It is terrific.
I’ve always had to make myself love ffs written by cuty-pies people like Ottery. Your ff, however, is too awesome. Loving it is such a natural and easy task. *Snuggles her Ern* You go. More Than Outstanding
Yup, the post was awesomely cute. I could quote it forever. However, I hardly have any time, love, or any proper net connection. *Wails*
GO GO ERIN!!!!!!
Love,
~~Jay~~

| Yay!
You updated. i am so happy. and it was a lovely update. i'm not feelin too hot so I'll make this a little shorter than usual but my three fav lines.
This can be so true. Time is tricky. Quote:
Time was an odd thing. Days and weeks could pass in the blink of an eye, while a few short moments stretched on into infinity. The reverse could be true as well… those times you wanted to drag out and savor were inevitably too short, and time seemed to stand still when you had no joy in your life to color the long, empty days.
And I agree with Kris, this is the funniest line! Quote:
“If you don’t stop tapping your pencil, I’m going to take it from you and…” He proceeded to detail the anatomically improbable things he planned to do with her pencil, and Tonks meekly laid it down.
She seems eager to go. And Scrimgeour is an idiot to think she can't do it just cuz she's a female. Maybe Harry can help with Remis and Tonks. Quote:
“…so I want a few Aurors to take up residence in the village and assist in guarding the school.” The school was… Hogwarts, and Tonks hand shot up even before her counterparts. . . .Up until this moment, she hadn’t realized that the best thing would be for her to get away from her empty apartment and all the little things that were reminding her of Remus. And what better assignment than to be near Harry and the other children?

Now, now... don't fight over first posts  . Yall are great... I'm glad you enjoyed the update. Let me see... Quote:

[x] How Remus is still being childish over the kiss I'm glad you like the way I play Tonks and that I'm true to canon. I don't like ff's that stray so much from canon that you wonder why they even bother... and I try to stay true to the gold that JK gave us. Quote:

Excellent! Awesome way to introduce how she got the assignment!
Loved the update, always worth the wait dear Ern!
THANKS  . I had to think hard about why Tonks would be at the school, and it seems kind of obvious to me now that she lives in my brain.
And FYI... Hit Wizards are canon. I swear. Quote:

As a writer, that's one of the best compliments I could get... that I'm detailed and real. I have trouble getting into FF sometimes, so I appreciate that. I'll wait eagerly for you to post a request in "Sweets" so I can reward you for being so sweet.
To the rest of my posters and lovely PAM-ers... I appreciate you coming out and listening to my babbling prose. I hope my muse comes to visit, but I'd expect an update in "Sweets" and "All Fall Down" first. Maybe.

Come on, hurry up and post, dear. You're the best writer on SS, did you know that? No other SS writer can strike such a perfect balance between Romance, glamour and reality. You turn my world t psy-turby.

Ministry RPG Name:
Genevieve James Law Enforcement Ministry RPG Name:
Carrigan Howard Accidents & Catastrophes | Made of Awesome | Ern-la the Best-wa | TZ's Apogee Aw... sorry to keep you all waiting. I'm trying to keep the updates on rotation, and it's FINALLY time for Shades to be updated again. Stupid muse kept flying up the chimney everytime I tried to write. She is NOT getting her quarterly raise. This bit is mostly narrative, but there's some chatter at the end.
The difference between a house like Grimmauld and 51 Scuppery Way was immediately apparent. Grimmauld was certainly older and darker, when it was visible at least, and it was closed in on either side by two very similar old family homes. Fifty-one Scuppery, or The Scup as Tonks insisted they call it, was a boxy two-story building that sprawled across the street from the Hog’s Head. From the functional front stoop, the Auror’s could see the Hogsmeade station and the road leading up to Hogwarts.
The biggest difference between the two buildings only became apparent after Tonks had been in The Scup for a good two days. Where Grimmauld had been dreary and so often quiet, the Scup was constantly in motion. Where Grimmauld had been a place of dark secrets and clandestine meetings, everyone knew that The Scup was an Auror post and had spell-proof holding cells in its basement. Tonks almost felt that she could change her hair to any color of the rainbow in a place like The Scup, with all its purpose and efficiency. Almost.
There was plenty for the four Aurors to do as they set up housekeeping. Proudfoot, given the lead for the team due to seniority, worked on the two big rooms downstairs. One had been a library, the other a study. He took the study for himself and set up shop for the other three in the library. Dawlish seemed to be good with spells, and he cleaned and fortified the basement and outer walls of the house.
Savage had tried to hand off cleaning duties in the kitchen and bedrooms to Tonks, since obviously all witches knew some good cleaning spells. Her father was a bit of a slob at times, so she actually did know a good number of cleaning spells, but it was so… preposterous. Proudfoot laughed when she upended a bucket of sudsy water over Savage’s head. She left him muttering about the doxy dung stains on the floor as she headed into the village proper for some supplies.
“Tonks, love!” She recognized the gruff voice even before she turned to take in the squat, rumpled man coming out of the Hog’s Head. He looked oddly lumpy, and she pocketed her list in anticipation of having to pull something illegal out of one of his pockets. “Jes’ been havin’ a drink with Albus. Well, I been drinkin’ and he’s been pourin’, you know how it is.”
“What have you got, Dung?” He was reeling, and she didn’t even have to touch him. With a monstrous hiccup, he dropped a fragile looking porcelain tea kettle and an odd armor hand. The kettle bounced as if made of Muggle rubber, and the armor hand hit Dung’s foot, causing him to topple over as he grabbed for his foot.
“Dung! Those are Harry’s. Everything in Aunt Walburga’s house… Sirius’s house… belongs to Harry. Do you really want to be known as the man who is stealing from the Chosen One?” She laid it on thick, remembering the ridiculous articles from earlier in the summer.
He looked frightened as he scrabbled backwards in a crabwalk. “Didn’ steal ‘em. Jes carryin’ ‘em for a bit. You kin have ‘em.” He apparated from the ground, and Tonks scooped up the two harmless artifacts. They were old Black antiques, but they weren’t dangerous. Still, since word had come that it was safe to return to Grimmauld, apparently no one had taken up residence there aside from Mundungus.
She’d have to remember to talk to someone about it. Her mind immediately went to Remus, but she didn’t want to be the first one to break the silence between them, especially if he ignored her efforts. Tonks decided to worry about it later, opting instead to head towards a small Wizarding grocery she’d seen tucked behind Honeydukes. Those men had better not expect her to cook, either. She wasn’t playing maid to that lot.

| *Glomps her Erin* JayMay ♥ Big, yellow duckie <3 Dearest Erin,
*Sobs*
I'm soooo happy you're back.
I thought you'd left me. *Shnuggles her Erin*
What can I possibly say to tell you how perfect you are, Erin? Seriously, you're the best FF writer on SS. I can compare you work with Dickens, love. It's very balanced, and you make excellent use of words - The way you interlink everything - It seems perfect. Also, I like your work better than J.K in some respects - You buil up slowly, steadily and patiently to everything - J.K sometimes rushes at it. I like your manner better.
Forever Yours,
~~Jay~~

As usual, you are the mistress of opening paragraphs  and excellent description. Cool street name  you are much better then me! Quote:

Love it! and *sigh* thinking of Grimmauld's owner. Quote:

 That's hilarious! Quote:

Making me sad Quote:

I'm anxious to see how they break the ice finally. Quote:

baha good for her!
Thank you for the post Ern! We love you!

Hogwarts RPG Name: Jennifer Kaye Wilson | First off, I'm so sorry I haven't replied to your updates sooner. 
I like how you wrote this part with very little mention of Lupin until it was closer to the end. It seemed like the reader was able to empathize with Tonks' feelings at the moment. Interesting use of literary technique. There's a name for it, I just can't recall it at the moment.
I also love how subtly strong you write Tonks. I've always pictured her as having a reserve of strength that we don't get to see and it's refreshing to read your writing and see that.
