Thanks so much for the encouraging and thoughtful comments. I always appreciate your analysis!
I've been wanting to write Remus's postwar (AU? What AU?) reunion with the werewolves for a long time now, so your prompt was the perfect impetus to do that. It's interesting to think about how they would interact in the changed circumstances.
Very glad you liked Remus's changed attitude here! Partly I was thinking that in this context of this ficverse I want to take seriously the fact that in By a Thread, Remus deliberately chooses to wake up instead of staying safely in the afterlife. So it's not the case that all of life's problems are miraculously fixed, but he's really had a major shift in perspective. Poor Tonks doesn't fully understand just how major, so she's still anxious, but she'll catch on eventually!
For some reason, the Tonks in my head keeps wanting to dress Remus in blue (the new bathrobe she gets him in a random DH scene I haven't written yet is blue, too). She may be onto something...
