Both Sides Now

Title: Both Sides Now for starfishstar

Prompt: One or both share with each other something about their past that no one else knows.
Rating: PG-13

Summary: Tonks delivers some news - or lack thereof - to Lyall Lupin. Takes place towards the end of HBP, when the Montgomery boy is killed by Greyback.

Author's Note: Here are the lyrics to the song I quoted. I'm sure it's on YouTube, too.

Additionally, a lot of this fic is based on new Pottermore information - for example, the names and stories of Remus's parents, although of course I have taken some liberties. You shouldn't need to know the backstory to follow, although it's on the Harry Potter Wiki if you think it would help.

(Also, I hope the formatting's okay... if not, I'll repost after work. Unfortunately I won't be able until then.)
