Summary: After the war is over, Remus places an ad in hopes that an old friend will see it.
Author's notes: For my sweet Kit, who gifted me with this bunny. I seem to be caught on this idea, and just couldn’t resist. The smut is minimal, but it is there. I hope folks enjoy.

So...I've seen it twice now.  The first time I was so overwhelmed by emotion that I had trouble sorting out my thoughts.  This is my second favorite of the books for several reasons.  Among them the fact that this is basically Draco and Snape's story.   Even as much as it is Harry's and Tom's.  The book itself is flawed, but there are many points in the story that I can't help but love, despite the ridiculous teenage drama. 

The movie is far less so.  Obviously, it can't follow the book exactly.  That would have taken three movies worth.  But there were some distinct disappointments when it came to things left out, or reactions in general.

Overall, worth a viewing, but I wouldn't expect it to be the best of the series if you have yet to see it.

( Here be the spoilers )

Those were my major reactions, though I'm sure I've forgotten something here or there, but I'd say I've rambled on far long enough.  Overall, not bad.  Just not great like I know it could have been.

I did this coming on three years ago now, but I think it's time it was updated.

A/N: Despite the fact that I’ve been watching since LMOM began, this is the first year I’ve participated. We’ll see how long I can keep this up, hm? The story overall is dedicated to one of my favorite Severus-peoples, snapesgirl_62, for her birthday, which was yesterday, and the fact that she seems to have finally properly ignited my Snupin muse. :) And yes, I do have some actual smut planned. Promise. Thank you to wolfish_cat for looking this over. The pieces I'm writing will be at least somewhat interlinked, even if they don't always seem like it.
