now really...i have officially decided to change my name to seriously_lovin_Moonylupin...really...you always have a way of capturing my heart. what a moving story. everything you said totally could have actually happened to Remus in 'real-life'. it's amazing the way your mind can think of things like this.

and now i'm hooked, so i'm going thru and reading all of your fan-fics until you update 'memory'!!

Author's Response: No, Sirius is much cooler than me! This was really just a spur of the moment one-shot I did during a break at school. I'm glad it came across realistically. Yay you're going to read my other fics! Thanks for reading!

Oh my god, I did not see that you had written something new! Wow!! Happyfulness reigns...

I loved this songfic, the song was perfect and the way you wrote around it was positively artful, it was so emotive. I like the way you showed Mr. Lupin's thought patterns, and how he tried to come to terms with what had happened- it was so real. As usual your descriptions were perfect, not to long but deep enough to be brilliant.

All in all, I loved it!

10/10

Author's Response: Yay happyfulness! I was sitting in school one day listening to my David Cook cd and this song came on and inspiration just struck. I wanted each verse of the song to fit what was going through Mr. Lupin's head. This was actually going to be a companion piece of You Want to make a Memory, but I decided to make it separate. I tried really hard with the description, since there's one line of dialogue in the whole thing, so I'm glad you liked it! Thanks for reading!

This was beautifully done! :D I love how you were actually literate, which is a big deal, trust me. I've read some terrible fanfics in my day, but this wasn't one of them.

I loved the emotion and the subtle placing of the song lyrics that actually related.

It was really sweet, it almost made me cry.

Author's Response: Glad to hear this wasn't one of the terrible fics you've read :)

When I was figuring out where to put the lyrics, I wanted the actual story to relate to them. Thanks for reading!

omg!! that is sooo sad =[ poor Remus and Mr Lupin, awe- it must of been terrible for him knowing it was all his fault that Remus was bitten. The song was really sweet and went well with the story-line.
I enjoyed reading this, because I think I have ever just read one other story based on little Remus getting bitten by Greyback, so it was change from the normal stories.
10!

Author's Response: It was horrible for Mr. Lupin. I think his character would always continue to blame himself for it, even if Remus were to tell him that it wasn't his fault. I love that song, it's one of my favorites and it just stuck in my head that it would be great for a songfic like this.

I love stories where it's based on Remus getting bitten, so I'm happy you liked this one! Thanks for reading!

Wonderful story, I was really able to see and understand the way Mr.Lupin was feeling. The flashbacks gave some real life to the story. Well done.

Author's Response: Thanks! I'm glad you liked it!

Brilliant. Extremely sad, but brilliant. You captured Mr. Lupin's emotions perfectly. The love and loyalty he has to Remus is great. I also like how you had Mr. Lupin looking back at the past and looking towards the future.

I first heard Permanent a few weeks ago when my friend had me listen to David Cook's CD. I love it. The funny thing is is that as soon as I heard it, I immediately thought of a song fic involving someone with lycanthropy. It's just such a perfect song for it.

So, anyway, great job! I absolutely loved it. :)

Author's Response: I started loving the character of Mr. Lupin when I started writing You Want to Make a memory (he's not the same one, obviously) and wanted to do a fic with his emotions about Remus's lycanthropy.

Permanent is a beautiful song and I can see why that would be the first thing you'd think of. The lyrics fit well. Thanks a lot for reading!
