Thank you so much for reading this expanded version even though you remembered the original ficlets! I'm so glad to hear you thought the dynamics of the friendships among these three came through.
As for the hair-morphing thing, I've always thought it would be interesting for them to have a running joke in OotP about Tonks being able to do any color Remus challenges her with, so that when we get to HBP and she can't morph at all it will be that much more of a shock. I've also read a lot of fics where Tonks has had to deal with men asking her to imitate their fantasies, and that does seem like something she would've encountered, so I thought this kind of teasing challenge that's about her skills, not about looking sexy, would really stand out to her. I'm glad you liked this aspect of the story!
