MOMENTS OF BLISS by moonymaniac
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: Remus Lupin is a man with a tragic past, filled with pain, suffering and sorrow. But it is also a past filled with great adventure, true friendship and…love? Even though the odds were against him, Remus found happiness at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. He had the Marauders, he was a prefect and his transformations were less horrible, thanks to his Animagi friends. What more could a teenage werewolf want? And how long could his happiness last? Remus and the Marauders prove that in the saddest of lives and darkest of times, there can still be moments of bliss.
Remus centric but with a lot of the other Marauders. This story is a romance, but has almost as much general Marauder era background and side story as romance.
Pre-HBP and DH, so some things from DH will be disregarded, as the warning indicates, but some Spoilers will be incorporated.
Date: 01/26/08 Title: Chapter 1: Prologue: Notes on a Life
Personally, I think this is an excellent example of Remus's character. It shows his nervousness, intelligence, but mostly, his thankfulness for Sirius, James and Peter's company.
It also seems that Remus is reluctant to grow up, (with his lack of developing a relationship Lindi for quote some time) with which seems perfectly like him. If I was Remus, and a life of estrangement, and abuse waited for me, I would want to stay in school as long as possible, and I definitely wouldn't want to leave. Hell, if I went to Hogwarts, I wouldn't want to leave either: D
Also, when he wants to tell Lindi of his condition, it makes me feel really sorry for him, because I know exactly how he feels. Remus is an honest guy, and he greatly dislikes lying.
I like how he worries about what his friends are going to make Lindi do, and how he upholds loyalty to not only his friends, but his girlfriend, and he does it without question.
Overall, I think you did an excellent job, and I can’t imagine Remu’s character being written any other way – the only part I didn’t like was the first chapter – I found it a bit slow, but it is really essential to show the nervousness his parents went through concerning his schooling.
Author's Response: Thank you so much, untitlednine. I am so glad that Remus\' appreciation for his friends comes through. Working on the second half of Chapter 47, Friends Like These, has made me think about that so much, so thank you. I\'m so thrilled that you find my portrayal of Remus believable. He is my absolute favorite character ever and I don\'t want to mess him up. I hope I don\'t! I know what you mean about the first chapter, too. Back when I first started posting, MNFF had a hit counter that authors could see how many hits their story got. Well, it was fairly obvious that many people hit the first chapter and then didn\'t come back. I briefly took it down, convinced it was losing me readers, but I had a few complaints from people wanting it back and I realized I was worrying too much about how many readers I had. :*( I put it back up. It is a little slow, but it has important background info in it and well...I sort of like it. :*) Anyway, I\'m just glad you didn\'t let it keep you from continuing on with the story. Thank you so much for this lovely review. I really appreciate it.

Symphony for Quartet by Tinn Tam
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary:
Winner of the QuickSilver Quills Award, categ. Best Marauder Era.
What did being a Marauder truly mean?... Let's just say that some tunes cannot be played by a lone musician; and those four's lives were certainly not soloists' scores. In class or in detention, in Quidditch matches or full-moon wanderings, fleeing before monsters or confronting dark wizards, they wrote, measure after measure, their own eight-handed piece.Messrs Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs, are proud to present a Symphony for Quartet.

Peter raised his eyebrows. “Y’know, if you’re that hungry, you can ask me for food anytime you want. I always have sweets and things in my trunk.”
that made me laugh.

Friendship, Love, and Pranks: The Story of the Marauders by Padfoot is MINE
Rated: Professors •Summary: Chapter Thirty-Eight in Queue!
They say someday your life will flash before your eyes...
The Marauders. The name alone strikes fear into the hearts of teachers and makes girls swoon. Watch as Sirius, who has always kept his emotions locked up in a box, finally finds the girl that has its key; as James masterminds everything, except how to win over the girl of his dreams; as Remus finds love, but learns it's just as hard to keep it going, and as Peter tries to prove he's just as good as the other four, no matter what he has to do. They're unstoppable, and it's safe to say that once they're gone, Hogwarts will never be the same again.
...let's make ours worth watching.

Changing the Past by PEMDAS

Harry, Ron and Hermione get mysteriously sent back in time to when the Marauders were in school, and Harry attempts to alter history. Can he get his parents back?

Date: 09/12/07 Title: Chapter 16: Millicent Bagnold
Millicent Bagnold was actually a minister of magic, as it says here, but i think she took the position before fudge, and just before voldermort disappeared for the first time.
so she wasn't minister when this story is set. i think.
Author's Response: I think she was...in HBP, it says Voldemort terrorized Britian for \"nearly four decades\"...it never actually says when, during that period, he disappeared. But thanks for having a keen eye out!

A Missing Moment from Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, and a submission for the “Spring Challenge: A Different Viewpoint” by megan_lupin of Gryffindor.
Date: 08/31/07 Title: Chapter 1: Not Again
excellent. makes sirius's death less.... well, i dunno. but it makes his death seem much better- in the sense that because he believed he failed james, he knew he was making it up to him.
but im still angry that he had to die.
but, it was very well written.
Author's Response: Oh, thanks so much for the review, untitlednine. I\'m glad you enjoyed the story.
Yes, I wanted Sirius\'s death to have a bit more meaning, and James was the way I wanted to show that.
But I agree ... Regardless of how meaningful it was, I HATED the fact that he died. *Misses her favourite character too much*
Anyway, thank you again for the review, (and Sirius extends his thanks as well).
