Pluto readers: I need your help!

The time has come for me to write a chapter about Dumbledore’s funeral ceremony. I have always headcannoned that Tonks and Lupin hadn’t got back together at that point. I wrote them as only getting together at the wake. So how and why did they end up holding hands at the ceremony? I’ve been pondering this for YEARS and am stuck, so I’m crowdsourcing: What do YOU think? How did exes whose last interaction was a tense argument in a hospital, end up holding hands at Albus Dumbledore’s funeral

Will of course give credit for any idea used. Thank you :)

Not Your Heroes by Vemodalen. I stayed up until 5 am to finish reading this, the night before I made a wedding cake for my in-laws. It's a crack fic and I could NOT put it down.

Chapter 31, "Facts" in Pluto by @bikelock28. It's 19 words that ripped me apart. If you read it you'll understand.

Remus Lupin/Nymphadora Tonks, rated M, eleven 200-word drabbles. Warning for mentions of abortion.

 She must have fallen asleep. She thinks it’s a fly crawling up her neck, for a minute, and nearly swats it before she realises it’s his mouth. Her heart gives a squeeze that is aching at the same time that it is sweet—how little it takes from him, these days, to wring a few drops of nervous hope from that tired old thing. But she turns to him, anyway, and they don’t speak but he kisses her a little, and fuck, there goes her gormless heart again.

Read it on Ao3.

I wanted to say a few things about what went into this fic below - and I will be talking about abusive relationships and abortion from a secular, pro-abortion-on-demand perspective, so if that's likely to trouble you I recommend giving it, and the fic, a miss.

This story is set around chapter 7 of Deathly Hallows, "The Will of Albus Dumbledore," when Lupin and Tonks leave Harry's birthday party to avoid being seen by Rufus Scrimgeour. This period of canon gives us several glimpses into how Lupin & Tonks's relationship is going and it strikes me as a really scary and unsafe time for Tonks. Lupin's unhappiness is so evident even Harry notices it, while she's described as "radiant," - meaning pregnant, but also that they're clearly not on the same page. Around this time we see Tonks facing some of the disturbing realities of being married to Lupin: Bellatrix's pursuit of her in the battle of seven Potters, having to flee from her boss so he doesn't see them together. Tonks's mentor is dead (and we see when that happens that Lupin's not all that interested in supporting her as she's reeling from it), Tonks's family is pretty unhappy with her (according to Lupin), things are unraveling.

(I'd like to point you to two takes I really love on how off-kilter their interactions are right before this, around the time Mad-Eye dies: Fallen Warrior by @bikelock28 and Mandible by @saintsenara - both of these authors have had a huge influence on my writing and my thinking about hp canon.)

I've always been kind of obsessed with this particular moment between Lupin and Tonks - when we see Lupin seize Tonks by the wrist and haul her out of the burrow. It's an alarming interaction, to me, that suggests the possibility of a very frightening dynamic setting up between them. Tonks is an adult, she's aware of the consequences of being seen together. I'm not even convinced she had to leave in the first place instead of changing her appearance or just making herself scarce upstairs for a while. There's no argument that leads Lupin to grabbing her out of desperation - he just says bye to Harry and hauls her away. Not by the hand, like he's trying to keep her from tripping or something. By the wrist, so she can't let go, which seems even more likely to unbalance her. It's a dismissal of her autonomy at the very least, he's treating her a bit like a child, and it's probably quite embarrassing for Tonks. The way she makes excuses for it the next day, in the context of everything else we're seeing about this relationship, only makes it all seem unhealthier. If I witnessed this interaction between a friend and her new husband, I'd be checking on her.

And in the midst of this rapidly-disintegrating relationship with this escalatingly-discontent and reactive husband - Tonks is finding out that she's pregnant, something that will complicate things even further and tie her to a man who does not really seem to want to be with her.

This fic came to be as I was thinking about the way Lupin talks about Tonks in "The Bribe," when he reveals that she's pregnant and they've split up, in a way that respresents this development as something abhorrent and humiliating but also downplays his culpability for it: ...then Lupin said, with an air of forcing himself to admit something unpleasant, "Tonks is going to have a baby." And how devastating that attitude might be for a Tonks who is happily pregnant.

But we don't really know how happy she is to be pregnant. We never hear about it from her. We see her as radiant in an early appearance, sure, and the baby ends up getting born, but that's all we really have to go on. And I have to wonder what options Tonks might have had if she didn't want to be pregnant or wasn't sure. She'd have had access to a legal abortion through the muggle health system up to 24 weeks, but there's evidence in canon that wizards are fearful of and disgusted by muggle medical practices (e.g. Arthur's stitches in OoTP). And wizarding society seems pretty regressive in some respects: people get married and have children young, there's no mention of divorce or blended families or out-of-wedlock babies - and yes, that's also because these are childrens' books (and books that privilege a certain kind of familial love above all else) but this is the text and the universe we have to work with. Notably, the immortal human soul demonstrably exists in this world and I think it's pretty safe to assume that most people believe in it - it seems to be pretty common knowledge that a dementor can remove the soul from the body and that ability is encoded into the wizarding penal system. What does that mean for abortion access in that world? Do wizards believe that an embryo or a fetus is an ensouled person and that it would be murder, or something like that, to terminate it? Even if a magical abortion is legal, what are cultural attitudes toward it like under this belief system? How difficult or inconvenient is it? I'll leave the particulars of how the wizarding legal and medical systems function to someone smarter than me, but... I work in health care, and I've seen the ways that even vague or minor barriers to access - stigma, embarrassment, misinformation, wait times or travel requirements, the levels of executive function and emotional regulation required to keep multiple appointments and talk to a bunch of providers about a sensitive issue - mean that some people who need care won't get it. We don't really know if Tonks unreservedly chose to keep her pregnancy, or if she just didn't have meaningful access to another option, or if access was just hard or unpleasant enough that she didn't make a decision until it was too late.

There's a tendency in some Remadora fic— including one of mine, in a way I didn't think much about until later—to frame the hypothetical of Teddy being aborted as a regrettable tragedy, thankfully averted by the power of true love, and not as a reasonable response to the difficult circumstances and something everyone might have moved on from and been fine - and I think that's understandable. Teddy's important to trajectory of Tonks and Lupin's lives. It's okay to love these characters and want everyone to be as happy and whole as their situations allow. And I think that we have some (at least mildly gendered) expectations that of course our faithful Tonks wants to stay married, wants a child with the person she loves. But I wanted to depict this slice of their relationship with sympathy for a Tonks who is seriously considering ending her pregnancy - who has at least as much reason as Lupin to just want shut of the whole thing. I would have, in her position. I have seen friends locked into horrible situations with abusive partners by pregnancy.  I think you could argue that not having Teddy and getting out of that relationship might have meant a different outcome for Tonks in the battle of Hogwarts. And I think that it's entirely possible for Tonks to have wanted an abortion that she didn't end up getting - for whatever legal, cultural, or psychological reasons - and for Teddy to still have been a welcome and loved child when he was born.

Anyway, let me know what you think.

FIC REC!

Title and author: Parents' Evening by @bikelock28

Summary: Petunia Dursley attends her son's parents' evening. Unfortunately, his teacher wants to discuss Petunia's nephew.

Leading ladies: Petunia Evans Dursley

What's to love: Spot-on characterization for Petunia Dursley. Denying Dudley's flaws, a concerned teacher worried over Harry, and even Dudley noticing not is all well. Based on Petunia's very canon behavior, this type of fic would be perfect for week 8, Villainous Vixens.

“When can I start?”

Tangy

Hogsmeade was balmy and mild, and Harry wondered momentarily why he hadn’t left his cloak at work.

Pretermit

Warm water flowed over Petunia’s hands as she handled a plate in the sink.

Through Her Eyes

“You got it?” Harry asked Ginny breathlessly from the other side of the large, heavy mattress, preparing once again to heave the thing, this time from the front steps through the doorway of their new little home.

No Strings Attached

“Nightmare?” Ginny whispered, reaching out to run her fingers along Harry’s arm.

Several Sunlit Days

He held her hand tightly, being dragged along as they ran swiftly through the deserted corridors, the only sound the pounding of their feet on the stone floor and their quiet, out of breath sniggers.

A Place to Sleep

Harry watched as Aunt Petunia picked up blankets and pillows from the stack in the corner.

As Long as Your the Groom

“We should just elope,” Ginny said.

That Black-Haired Boy

Molly Weasley knew he was famous.

Saying Goodbye

The October night was chilly, and Sirius shivered as he walked swiftly down the cobblestoned street leading to the Potter’s house in Godric’s Hollow.

[thistlecatfics]

lol I'm 1000% in agreement (boring good andromeda is BORING and unrealistic)

which is why she's an alcoholic destroying her relationship with Ted(dy) in my lesbian tedromeda longfic (though one or two more chapters and she's going to get her shit together I promise)

and I also adore the way @slashmarks writes Andromeda in their various works. (currently loving her as a background blood purist in the glorious bellamione time travel WIP)

other wonderfully imperfect andromedas -

the grace unasked for by leftsidedown (remadora canon divergent)

Clip, Ravel, Cleave by doshu (bella/andromeda I go feral for)

The Waves by nanneramma (grief, tedromeda)

i don’t forgive you (but please don’t hold me to it) by evawrites (andromeda pulled between ted and bella)

Bottle by bikelock28 (more alcoholic andromeda!)

Flying Lessons by Phantomato (postwar Andromeda/Hooch, lovely characterization)

wait yall i need a fic where andromeda is at least a little fucked up. like sirius and regulus always are in fics but andromedas always perfect and undamaged and im like GIRLY WHAT????

she grew up in the same family as them you guys. unlike sirius, she was sorted into slytherin but it was still clear that she was different and she wouldve gotten so much backlash for that. also, she didnt have to leave just one sibling behind, but two who were both in very different circumstances. cissy, who didnt really want to be part of the family but would never admit it and would do anything to impress her parents, and bella, who wanted everything they offered but who everyone could see was descending into madness. not to mention her younger cousins, who she wasnt able to help after being exiled, leaving regulus no good influences or anyone to help him(sirius did have that cos he was sorted into gryffindor).

not to mention everything parents in the black family do. lets be so real andromeda had to have some issues after all that turmoil.

😭 A fic that ripped your heart out (but it hurt so good)

i have two recent ones for this

safe in the fold by @welsh-green, a scene between molly and harry around the first postwar christmas. it's such a loving look at that relationship and the way molly and harry are both surrogates for each other, especially in the wake of fred's death. her molly and the way she grieves in this story reminded me so much of my own mother

beasts by @whinlatter. i'm not all the way caught up on this fic yet but the end of chapter 5 made me sit there with my heart dripping down the inside of my chest for a few minutes. i won't spoil anything other than to say it's ginny weasley's POV of the first postwar year of hogwarts. it's such a great fic in general, really sophisticated and full of all these beautiful character moments, you should just read it.

7. On First Impressions by cafei-au-lei 

"'You know,' Sirius said, 'it's kind of funny. For someone who thinks Remus is so annoying, you sure can't seem to stop talking about him.'" A series of moments in Remus and Tonks' developing relationship as they get to know each other and learn that maybe first impressions aren't necessarily everything. OOTP. Oneshot.

9. Find Us in a Week by myscribblinquill 

Tonks' new case is different to those she's had before. First off, there's no crime to solve, all she has to do it collect information on the mark and pass it along to her client. But the problem is there's nothing to pass along, he's so boring and yet, somehow, Tonks can't stop following him.

10. Dora by notoriously

Meetings with the Order are long and boring, and Don't-Call-Me-Nymphadora Tonks doesn't do long and boring. She takes some time out of her duties to carefully consider Remus Lupin, and he quite-significantly-less-carefully considers the name that leaves his mouth when addressing her.

Five times Vanya heard from her siblings about The Book and one time she made it all better by writer_inthe_dark - this is just real therapeutic

go ahead and cry little boy (nobody does it like you do) by xfrosted - five has some breakdowns - it may not be a revolutionary concept, but it’s well written

picture book by Gin_Juice - when i say this series consumed the majority of my week - set after the apocalypse is sorted - i’m taking it as canon because honestly? it’s the best thing i’ve read - excellent headcanons and character dynamics

Raise Tiny Daggers Up to Heaven by queenbaskerville - catch me hyping up one of my faves again - this has inspired a whole fuckin AU that i’m trying to get down on paper - patch!! i love her. she lives because fuck manpain

catch and release by sauntering_down - klaus and ben figure out that five’s been sleeping in the library - i am Soft for this fic - hits different when u remember that five’s gotten like four hours of sleep across fourteen days in canon

harry potter

A Night To Remember by respect_the_boomerang_arrow - harry and ron go to the yule ball together. in drag. - feel-good fic for when you’re having a bad day - honestly just a good fun read, and not too long for a crack-y concept

By Any Other Name by beedee81 - fred and george circa 1989, probably: “what if we went into different houses to cause even more chaos?” - the entire hogwarts staff circa 1990 “please send help” - very fun, not finished but concludes so that it could be read as finished

Back and Blue by Spellmugwump - oops, everyone’s alive again - no one is dealing well - unfinished, but i’m super excited to see where this goes

Fost and Lound by bikelock28 - missing scene from book four, ginny, fred, and george in the forest at the cup - made me remember how much i love the weasleys

"What is it with Welsh people and Indian food?"

This chapter started out pretty good, but might have got a bit unhinged along the way. I'm open to re-editing it, so let me know what you reckon.
