In retrospect, it was a horrible idea, but it was the only idea they had, and at the end of the day, maybe it worked out after all. AU, Beedle the Bard spoilers.

Reviews for The Tonks Caper
I think this story is great fun! Thank you! O Henry has always been one of my favorites, and I think you did a masterful job capturing his essence. I especially liked the tone of the narrator and the child's presentation as a totally believeable child, even if her age did change during the story.
Response from Rose of the West (Author of The Tonks Caper)
This came to mind after borrowing The Gift of the Magi for another story about Ted and Andromeda. If any kid in the HP canon was like Red Chief, it's Tonks, LOL. I didn't mean to change her age, though. Canon-wise, she should be six or seven, I think, and that's what I thought I had her at straight through. Thank you so much for hte review!
Brilliant! Just brilliant! I love this bit of back story. Too bad about Remus, of course, but nice twist there; I didn't see that coming!
Response from Rose of the West (Author of The Tonks Caper)
Well, the whole thing is a bit AU. Unfortunately the Lestranges didn't have kids and didn't change sides. It's fun to imagine what if, though. Thank you for the review!
Ah yes Bella, children change everything don't they.
Response from Rose of the West (Author of The Tonks Caper)
Hee, yes, children change everything and even take us into Alternate Universes. Thank you for the review!
What a unique story and a fun read! I cackled each time they received an indifferent letter from mom telling them to keep Tonks.
Response from Rose of the West (Author of The Tonks Caper)
Thank you! I always pictured Andromeda writing what she really felt, and Dumbledore taking out fresh parchment and saying, "ok,dear, now write this..."

Yes, I got that same feeling at the end at the gates of Hogwarts.
