Thank you so much! I was a bit worried you'd mind me using your potion for this sort of story...Hope you continue reading. Hope you like where this will lead to!

Thanks. Once Snape is determined to do something, he will do it, no matter the danger.Hope you like the rest of it - I'll update soon.

I will send the next chapter to SW69 at the weekend. And yes, tearing apart is quite likely to happen...Thanks for reviewing!

I always see them as friends, in all my fics. The other option is Lucius Malfoy, but Remus is my favourite. The next chapter is on the way :-)Thanks for reviewing!

Right then, let's give you a few hints so you won't be shocked at the things to come...This is very AU, and not only becaus all of them are alive. Snape and Lupin are frinds. Explanation in the next chapter.Absolutely everything is possible. Dumbledore will play a minor role in the coming chapters.Harry and Ron will be back in the Epilogue.Hope that helps ;-)And many thanks for reviewing

Remus is in grave danger, I can tell you that much. But Snape won't give up. Thanks for your friendly words - I know that a Snape/Lupin centred story is not the best liked ship. But the prompt called out to me and I have written a bit too many SS/HG stories lately ;-)Next chapter will be sent to SW69 this weekend.

I think it is a great ship.  Lots of really well written Snape/Lupin is out there.  I think a Snape/Lupin/Potter threesome was one of the first HP fanfictions I read.  (McCay's)I've been hooked on HP fan fic ever since. 

Do me a favour - give me some titles/archives. Most Snape/Lupin stories I found were either too short or too bitter.

http://remembrall.slashcity.net/I hope the link works, otherwise, go to yahoo, look up chocolate frog, scan down to the one that says Snape slash fiction for adults.  That's the one.  The author writes other pairings, too.  But, I feel lucky that my first exposure to HP fanfic was hers.  (Or almost first)  She's really good.

Believe me, dear, I won't make that mistake again! The warning is up now, at the beginning of the story where it belongs. I didn't want to upset someone, but slash is so normal for me by now, I didn't even think I could offend someone.Thanks for reading and reviewing!

Oh, yes, definitely! The sequel (one-shot) is about half way through. Lupin, Snape, Hermione. Interested in betaing it?

As you know by now, Tonks is more interested in Hermione ;-)I simply love SS/RL. I found I can't write 100% SS/HG, and I really like slash (easily to be detected in this chapter...) so Lupin is IMO the perfect match for Snape. They are so very different, they attract each other like magnets. I am affraid I will write some more stories about those two!

Glad you are looking forward to a bit of male-male action ;-)

Not only for him, for all of them ;-) And no, it's none of his business. They are happy, that's all that counts.

I couldn't figured out another way to make it work. I painted the picture of a happily married couple, then let Remus end up in bed with Snape, but didn't want to destroy the marriage. So - a girlfriend for Tonks came in handy. Thanks for reviewing, dear!

Weeell, not without reaction, no. But without a bad reaction, definitely. No one can live without walls around him all his life. Not happily, anyway. So I think it is a good thing this happened to Snape.

Well, I couldn't kill one of them in the middle of the story, could I? And I can tell you that yes, both will be happy in the end.Thanks for reviewing!

Two out of three sequels are started, but I won't be able to post before November. Thanks for encouraging me, I know that Snape/Lupin is not the best liked ship ;-)

I will read almost anything with Snape in it, except SS/RW  ::shivers:: Snape and Lupin don't bother me as long as the story is good and the characters are not to OOC.

*g* I am very glad you read this one and reviewed as well. I know very well that this is not the usual HG/SS story, not even the usual slash fic, but here you go, I like unusual. And I like happy endings.Thanks for reviewing. And I am totally with you - I love finished stories, which is the reason why I have never, so far, left one unfinished...

Ah ha!  a clue to your identity!  no abandoned fics!

Thank you very much for reviewing, and I promise that I will solve the Tonks problem in the next chapter. And I have a Severus/Lucius in store, but won't post it before the challenge is over ;-)

Next chapter will be sent to SW69 tonight, it should be online sort of soon. Will solve the problem with Tonks :-)Again - thanks for leaving a review!

:-) I somehow have the feeling that you didn't like the chapter too much, given the rating. What was wrong for you? And thanks for leaving a review anyway ;-)

In this story, she is a bitch; she is one more nail to Remus's coffin, so to say ;-)Thanks for reviewing!

Hmmm, I must admit, I can't remember having seen it in canon, but as Albus is old and Snape can be quite rude every now and then, it seems to fit, at least to me. He calls him that in several of my stories; guess I have to look it up :-)Thanks for reviewing!

I guess I should apologise for not having put warnings up at the beginning. I simply didn't think of it - I only warn if there is something that deserves the warning, and that only happened in the current chapter. Again, sorry. I hope you are not angry at me now for turning friendship into love, but to me, it seemed a logical step.The next chapter is harmless again. Well. Without detailed sex scenes, that is ;-)Thanks for reviewing!

Oh, no it didn't offend me. I just don't always read slash. Some parings yes, but not all. It just came as a shock, because I do like to knowin advance if that is the type of story I am reading. I was surprised. However, the lead in was very well done, and the coupling  - I admit I scaned through, although the emotional aspect was heart tearing. But I wasn't offended at all. The thing I do want to ask is: Are they going to go back to being just friends, or is this a slash story? How will Tonks react to this, and is Remus going to tell her? Situtations like this can destroy a marriage.

That the story would turn in this direction was a bit of a surprise to me as well, as I wanted to write a friendship story. Therefore, no warnings, and believe me, I got a good scolding from SW69 because of this error ;-) Glad I didn't offend you - the proper warnings are up now. Better late than never...The next chapter will be sent to SW tonight, and there are no warnings needed for it. I will solve the Tonks problem and I promise they manage to talk. All of them. I have no intention to destroy a marriage, nor a friendship. Let me know if I managed this task to your satisfaction, please!

*lol* Tonks is not out of the picture, in case you wondered. I will sort that problem out in the next chapter, which will go into queue sometime next week.Thanks for the hint, though ;-) I've got something else in mind for her.
