    Good job on this fic. So far more believable, and more realistic than most other Honks marry fics. Continue onward!

    Quite like the story. Too bad it took so long for the this chapter to come out. The awkwardness between Tonks and Harry is really good. Also the part about having a bad night being away from each other after weeks of being sort of a couple.

    I'm curious to see what kind of teacher Tonks will be with Harry. Extremely demanding, favouring him or just teaching him like any of the others.

    The Ron/Hermione scene was really good and funny, since all she seemed to have heard is the part about him not having courage to ask someone out. Would have liked having Ron saying that with all the really bad things that happened to Harry he gets something really good in return, so that his life is rather balanced like the other, just a bit more extreme. Well, that might have been a bit too grown up for Ron to say right now.

    Either way, I hope to see the next chapter soon. Hopefully a bit of smut. Doesn't have to be outright sex. Harry and Tonks don't seem to take the time to enjoy their sexuality. It seems rather fast and getting directly to the main part.

    I must admit, at first I was dubious about reading the story, BUT I am really starting to like it. there are some mistakes like added letters to words that I saw in a few chapters, and I burst out laughing at Molly asking Tonks how Harry was in bed. I will certainly be keeping a look out for new chapters (or just give me a poke on the forum as I'm rather bad at keeping up)

    Anyway, all in all, I am liking it, and hope you keep up with it

    Aaar, marital bliss :D

    You are quite a good writer, and your chapter length is decent. You also give some good effort into what is going on in your character heads, unlike many Fanfic writers.

    So, in all, keep it fucking up! :D

    I don't see any problem with there being a lack of smut this time around--our two "lovebirds" are on rather shaky ground at the moment, after all.

    I don't think I'm alone when I say it's great to see this story back! Now keep at it! Start writing the next chapter NOW! :)

    Glad to see this one underway again, there isn't enough good Honks out there. This was an interesting chapter as far as setup chapters go, but I can't wait for you to get back into the thick of things and have Harry and Tonks figure things out, at least somewhat.

    As far as horcruxes go, it's been my experience that they don't go well with fics that choose to focus a lot on relationships (romantic or platonic) as they require a fair bit of setup; you have to introduce them to the characters, setup there hiding spots, and work your characters into situations where they might find them, all the while keeping up your interpersonal dramas...but that's just my opinion :)

    Thanks for writing!

    Yay! New chapter!

    I loved that line from McGonagall, too, about Neville's gran having to accept him. Nice that you kept it in (and Luna's 'it's like having friends' line). I loved both Hermione's and Ron's observations about having to deal with their best friend's moods, especially how she thinks the comment about 'dragging the tale' out of him. They both know him so well, and Ron is mostly right about Harry's fortune, even though things are a lot more complicated than having a major babe dropped in your lap.

    You did a nice job with showing that Tonks is feeling not only guilty about the fight, but kind of lonesome for Harry, too. I think that's so sweet. Can hardly see them make-up finally! But I can certainly understand why Harry's so upset.

    And I mentioned it before, but I really did enjoy the way Harry puts his House Professor on the spot. His stance was so Harry, and I loved the 'I got over a hundred percent, yo!' attitude.

    Now that you've started, you can't just let it sit for another 6 months, or however long its been. We want to know what's going to happen with these crazy kids! Oh, and I don't really think you need to bring up Horcruxes, either. That seems like something that would be completely tangential to this story and take away from the plot you're building.

    Nice chapter, i'll say. Warm and realistic. And no worries about that no smutties. Only way that happens if you use some other people than H/T (which i hope you wont) or they make up. I do hope that wont be some kiddy crap screaming and then 'i love you, lets do it now!' Anyway, i liked how Harry is feeling somewhat possessive if not jealous just yet over Tonks. Also i liked the ron part in the end, meaning i enjoyed the realisim of his whining insensitive and childish they may be. I too enjoyed that you made Harry take care of magical creatures instead of forced him on potions. More realistic. I dont care about horcruxes either. Do or dont. your call.
    In short. Great chapter.
