A Longing Beyond Reason

Lupin is consumed with an overwhelming desire for...what? With cameo appearances by Hogwarts teachers, various random house elves, deadly bakeries and a very special singing telegram.

I always feel extremely strange when I'm writing these things, having never really been all that good at talking about myself. In any case, here are the basics: I'm a 41-year-old Canadian who started reading the Harry Potter books about twenty years (!) ago just to see what all the fuss was about. I wrote my first fanfic about a year later, and I've been semi-active in the fandom ever since. I am very musical; I play the bagpipes, I've played the violin since I was about nine years old and I sing with two choirs (a community choir I've been singing with since 1997 and a church choir I've been singing with since late 2008). Writing is also one of my many obsessions, and (much to my relief) the monstrous case of writer's block which grabbed me for a couple of years seems to be gradually letting go. Even so, should I submit any chaptered fics here, it's reasonable to assume that the updates will be pretty far apart even if they're actually finished before I start posting. It's not intentional; I'm just, at times, a little forgetful.

I needed him to be craving something, and that's the first thing that came to mind. 
Thanks for reviewing.
LMAO Was he a cop in a past life? lol
Response from Pennfana (Author of A Longing Beyond Reason)
Cravings don't need a reason. I just needed him to be craving something, and since at the time I wrote this I lived in an area where there are coffee shops within walking distance of practically everywhere, this was the first thing that came to mind. Glad you enjoyed the story.

One of them, completely in the depths of despair, started singing old Britney Spears tunes.
LOL!!!
An hour and two sherbet lemons later... hehehee
I loved this silly little piece! Wonderfully absurd. I hope to see your next product of overtired imagination sometime.

I know that this response is way overdue, so sorry about that. Thanks for your review, and trust me, there's plenty more where that came from...
I've not been much of a Lupin follower, but I've seen some great stuff that he's been in lately.
Poor bloke just wasn't thinking clearly! lol... glad he got what he wanted in the end. ~snicker~ I wondered when someone would have pointed out the Muggle bakery. teehee

Thanks for the review.
I'm glad that he got it, too; he's one of my favourite characters.
Your sly sense of humor is so marvelous. I really needed a happy story today, and now I am all cheered up! (But I need a doughnut!)Thanks,Wahoo

Thanks for the review—glad you enjoyed this fic. It's one of my older ones, but people still seem to like it.
ROFLMAO I have tears in my eyes. Poor Remus. Glad he got his jam donut.
Response from Pennfana (Author of A Longing Beyond Reason)
So many years after I wrote this, I still have no idea where it came from. I do remember that it was a lot of fun, though, and it's wonderful to know that this fic can still make people laugh.
Oh, this was a lot of fun. I like Remus so much and thought you nailed his character just right. Now, I'm off to find a jam doughnut of my own. Speaking of silly songs ... Dunkin' Donuts -- it's worth the trip!
Response from Pennfana (Author of A Longing Beyond Reason)
But Remus had time for Tim Horton's. ;)
In any case, I'm glad you liked this story. I don't post anything that I think shouldn't see the light of day (or the code of archives, for that matter), but I'm especially proud of this one. I've been wanting to do another Lupin-centric fic for awhile now, but I haven't had any ideas that I thought were good enough. (That, and I've got about 5 WIP's to work on right now.)
Thank you for reviewing.
