ACK! Vaysh! I missed this comment! I was probably off being badly behaved in preparation for my birthday ...
Thank you so much for reading this, and for leaving such a fabulous and comprehensive comment!
As you guessed, to me the real tragedy of the Marauders is the loss of trust between three of them who were forever faithful, while never suspecting the one who would, in a way, kill them all in teh long run. You are quite right that I see Remus as wholly suspicious of Sirius, and ever so ready to believed he has been proved right at the end.
The Remus story has started, but will take quite a long time before I am happy to start publishing it, I want the first third written at least so that there is none of this long break thing I have going at the moment ;-)
And yes, the Potters! They must have been kind and loving, because all that group seem to have such a sense of having been made welcome. Poor old Harry to never hear of them! I know JKR has said they died a natural death, so I stretched it a little for dramatic effect ;-)
