I adore the world of HP.
Thanks for stopping by. I'm off to stir my cauldron.

I noticed you completed this before DH came out. I think you could write a very interesting epilogue to this suggesting baby Teddy may have a different parentage then we all thought. Fun story.

Oh, that would be cool. I'll think on it. :)
I'm really feeling awful about my poor sweet lovely werewolf. I guess I'll have to go and comfort him now. ;)
Tonks and Harry deserve each other.

Hehe... Lupin's prob listening in with his super cool werewolf sense and it's making him horny! LOL He'll get some. :)
Want to know something silly? I love Harry/Tonks. There isn't enough of it out there. Know something else? I write Remus/Ginny. There isn't enough of *that* out there either ;) JKR needs to uncross some canonical wires and get her pairings straight!
I really enjoyed this piece. You said you started out to paint Tonks in a bad light, and in a way you succeeded, but in another way, she wasn't so much bad in this, as real. I've really enjoyed that aspect to a lot of your stories, you place your characters in such a harsh light that their cracks begin to show and then you split them along those cracks to see if they bleed - always makes for a satisfying read, even if it isn't a comfortable one.
I also wanted to touch on your characterisation of Harry - wow! While the words he's saying aren't in his own personal repertoire, he'd have heard those sentiments before. In a lot of cases, use of that sort of vulgarity draws one out of the Potterverse, but you've used it effectively. It doesn't feel OOC, it feels real, and raw and powerful. Under the pressure of having to fight Voldemort the following day, being seduced by the wrong woman, everything out of his control - out of his realm of experience - it makes sense that he would draw the words from an outside source. And... I'm done babbling. Honest, I just really loved all of the layers to this fic, intentional or not ;)

I don't like Lupin much, but I have read a story someplace with him paired with Ginny, and I liked it very much. Thanks for the kind words. I do try to make for an entertaining read and try to make things plausible. Sometimes people react differently than they normally would in certain situations. You've nailed it perfectly. :)
Great story... I must say, you've surprised me with both Harry and Tonks; however, that being said, it made for quite the encounter... I just hope that it doesn't permanently taint Harry's attitude towards sex and relationships!Thanks!
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Turn the Tables)
Nah, I think he'll be "normal" with his Ginny or whomever he ends up with, but I do think that a little kink now and then never hurt anyone. Muahahaha
I really liked Harry in this, it drives me nuts when he is passive! And your Tonks seems very like my idea of her - nothing fazes her except not being in control!
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Turn the Tables)
I hate passive Harry, too! Thanks!
So Harry is a dirty talker huh? I so rarely read a story where Harry is strong and assertive it was fun to read about him taking the upperhand and being the nasty one for a change. Well done SW
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Turn the Tables)
Thank you so much. I guess all that pent up worry or emotion or... whatever it was helped. Teehee.
Wow, I usually don't like Tonks, and really liked her even less here...lol, which was your intent actually ...but Harry's sudden shift was interesting. Maybe it was what he needed to get through the night. And Remus knowing about them and approving? Wow, I didn't see that coming.I liked Harry's smugness at the end, it seemed to fit with the whole scenario. Interesting take on the prompt, well done, Sun.
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Turn the Tables)
Teehee. I couldn't leave that little smug smirk out in the end. I could see it so perfectly, "Who's the man? I am!" LOL Thanks for reading this. I think it was all the raging emotions within, and maybe he was trying to take it out on her somewhat... just sort of snapped. :) Psst. I don't like Tonks either!
well, you may not have planned it so, but i certainly thought it was well done. Dominant Harry was definitely sexy as anything. Ok, anything except for Snape. <3 Personally, I liked it. Tonks strikes me as a very sexually uninhibited witch and I thought you wrote her very well.
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Turn the Tables)
Thanks so much. I like a dominant Harry, too. I appreciate the comments.
You certainly succeeded in painting Tonks naughty in this. I like that you had him evaluate in his mind and come to the thought that part of him did actually mean what he'd said. In this setting, they were appropriate thoughts. Nicely written, as always.
