Pretty decent story. A nicely realistic(if such a thing can be called so) take on 'older girl younger man, in the course of events meant to help save the world!' I like it. Just enough WAFF, just enough (well, plenty of) angst, a good bit of drunken resentment, and makeup sex. Good stuff. Awkward bits were awkward, unbelievable bits felt unbelievable, and reconciliation felt difficult but worthwhile. I think your writing itself still needs a little more polish, but your ability to convey emotions and the like is incredibly well developed. Good stuff. Looking forward to more.

Short and to the point. Hope the next chapter is a tad bit longer and some more conflict between the new couple and dumbledore. like say the upcoming school year?

I really like this story! And I'm guessing that the "Four Letter Word" is Date. Guess I'll find out next chapter.

Bless. You're so welcome, Daye, but I think you have a really good idea on how to shape this story. I really like how you're developing the relationship between Harry and Tonks, some of the best stuff I've seen. You have a real knack for understanding character motivation and expressing it well.
Because it's been a while since an update, I went to reread the last chapter as not only a refresher, but to give the new one some continuum, and so it made it seem like one really, really long chapter with the added stuff. Glad I did that. And I was reminded just how sensual you write the sex scenes. You manage to elevate the WAFF by writing extremely hot smut to go with it.
I thought Tonks' discussion with Molly was much needed, as well as illuminating. I can completely understand Tonks' need to make Harry happy after being confronted with his lonely home life and seeing up close how deprived Harry really is when it comes to an emotional groundwork. It makes me love Tonks all the more, because its evident how big her heart is, even while she is expressing that affection through sex. I'm glad that Molly assured her.
It will be interesting to see how frank the discussion goes with Harry and his two best mates, though, once Ginny is out of the room. Curious about that conversation. And can I just say that I really appreciated that you had Harry show some affection back to Hermione in his gratitude? It's like watching him come out of his shell, and that's really lovely to see. You do such a great job in keeping his character absolutely faithful to the Harry in the series, even as you put him through some very adult experiences. While there is a little leeway with Tonks because we don't know as much about her, you've captured Harry's awkwardness, resolve, tetchiness, and awe perfectly. Well done, man.
And as a side note, Captcha is now adding French words to their box. deciesse Author Hmm, sounds foreboding.

Hey, Daye. Just thought I'd leave another review and state how much I enjoy this story. I know this isn't the only story you have ongoing, as you also have the year 7 expansion of your Harry/Pansy fic to handle. While I eagerly anticipate that story, just as I did its predecessor, I am digging this fic even more. I can't wait to see what's coming next for Harry and Tonks.
