LOL *clings* How could I be Snape/McGonagall if I didn't live in the fanfiction world?!

Remember people, PM those links to fanfictions and graphics!

We have a featured fanfiction up by unicornkeeper07! Check the first page.

Also, I currently have two applications for co-chairs, so everyone should keep the applications coming. Also, does anyone have any ideas for what we should call our positions?

I've never heard of that theory before, but that would be really interesting. Part of me would like to see the books end with Remus being cured, because he's so miserable (and he couldn't say he's "too dangerous" for Tonks anymore!), but the other part of me doesn't. It's a big part of his character and who he is, and part of what makes his character so...alluring. Is that wrong?

Oh, that would be so cool--if Tonks killed off Greyback. I'd love to see that!

Is that what happens? If someone kills Greyback the curse is lifted? Imagine if Tonks done that for the man she loves

Yeah, the dangers for Tonks to do that would be so high, and Remus wouldn't let her do it, he'd sooner die then let her get bitten or killed by Greyback.

But, just imagine if she was the one to put an end to Remus' suffering... wow

Ahhh, now I didn't know that. I'm not too hot on how werewolves tick.

I don't think it's even being with a woman; I think he fears being extremely close to anyone, because so many people he's been close with have died or suffered. I still say Tonks is being a hinderance on him; as much as he needs someone to depend on, he'll be worrying so much for her that the relationship will take a toll on him.

lol I love crazy pairings.

LOL Yeah, they're awesome. I love grossing people out with them

Thanks I'm such a radio junkie >.<

My name is Kinzey, I know it's weird, I'm not too fond of it, you can call me Kinz, I guess.

Anyways, I just do a lot of research, werewolves and vampires and stuff like that, like with Van Helsing, Dracula, and Frankenstein, have always been really fascinating and I love reading about it. It's so weird, I have no life... *tear*

I think there is some getting close to women is a bit more personal than we may know. I know this is based off the movie, but when Lupin says,"You know the very first time I saw you, Harry, I recognized you immediately. Not by your scar, by your eyes. They're your mother, Lily's. Yes, oh yes. I knew her. Your mother was there for me at a time when no one else was. Not only was she a singularly gifted witch, she was also an uncommonly kind woman. She had a way of seeing the beauty in others even more perhaps. Most especially when that person couldn't see it in themselves." That kind of sounds like there might have been something, or maybe he got close to her and something wrong happened...I don't know, it's just a thought.

You sound so much like me! I know that scene off by heart And I agree with you, from the movie's perspective (forgive me, I can't remember what happens in the book now), but it does sound like Remus had feelings for Lily on some level.

I so agree! I've always thought that happened- Lupin had feelings for Lily (maybe unreturned ones?). I thought that was the reason why Sirius didn't trust him to become Secret Keeper, because he (Sirius) knew about the feelings Lupin had for Lily, and thought Lupin would let his jealousy for James overcome him.

Nice memorization skills.

I can't help it, I'm really passionate about this character. I think he could have even been jealous of Sirius and James, he was kind of separated and did his own thing...I guess, a little left behind, probably too afraid to get too attached. Maybe Lupin had feelings for Lily, or perhaps he yearned for the idea of someone like Lily.

I don't think that's necessarily true. I don't believe lycanthropy is genetic at all--if that were the case, why would werewolves have to bite other people to create new werewolves? They could just do it the old-fashioned way and have kids. They have to bite people because it's the only way. So you could argue that Remus might be sterile, and that's why he can't have kids and stays away from women. But Remus having baby werepups makes little sense to me.

And even if it says in other werewolf stories and folklore that the children of werewolves are also afflicted with lycanthropy, what happens in JKR's universe isn't often the same as legends in other stories. She tends to put her own twists on things. Also, it is common legend that silver burns werewolves, but that doesn't seem to be the case in the books. So JKR might have her own plans in mind for Potter werewolves.

Really? Where is this stuff described in the books?

i didnt know that!

Wow...I never really thought of it that way. If all that you say is true, then you just made that scene all the more interesting...

Yeah I agree...I don't know but I've never really heard about the whole taste human blood theory...XD Hehe, sounds interesting enough though.
