I think I remember reading the original versions on rt_challenge, this version felt vaguely familiar but also new as well, so well done! I loved the idea of Remus challenging her to try different hair styles :) I always think Tonks must have had a hard time with people expecting her to be more conventional looking (morphing to a Fleur-a-like or something) and the fact that Remus not only accepts her as she is but encourages her to test the limits of her powers must naturally bring them closer. Her reaction to the werewolf revelation seemed logical, and I loved the off-hand way that Sirius told her! I really liked your take on Sirius here, his affection for both of them was clear.
You've conveyed so much in such a short piece, Tonks' sense of humour and sensitivity, Remus' insecurities, Sirius' own issues and the friendship between the three of them. It's hard to do but it really does come across!
