Ever since the Pottermore bio was released, I'd been hoping to see some fic with Lyall, so I was excited to see that was the direction you'd gone in for this. This story was so sad -- especially the part about what happened to Hope! -- but I do like the idea of Tonks getting to know Lyall, and the two of them comparing notes on negotiating relationships with Remus. It might make it easier for both of them to have someone else to talk to who understands...
