How do you think Lupin proposed to Tonks or how do you think Tonks proposed to Lupin?
Well, my fist thought would be that Tonks proposed, because she's the one who reallly wanted to marry him. But Lupin probably did it, because of the whole guys propose thing. So yes,, it would have been Lupin.

Where did she propose to him at? (Like in the books?) I don't remember it saying who did what...?? Maybe I just forgot! I really have a bad memory about these things, sometimes I can remember the most random thing and others things that should be apparent are not. LoL. I'm strange that way!! So when they fought in HBP at the hospital when Bill was attacked, thats when she proposed kind of? I remember the fight, I remember her saying she wanted to be with him and that it didn't matter if he was different she loved him anyway. And he was all lets talk about this later, and the others were all "Lupin you're being stupid about this" blah blah. Ok the next thing I remember she was telling Harry at the Burrows that her and Lupin got married. Is it in this chapter that it states who proposed to who??.......

no, it is not stated in any of the books as to who proposed to whom... I was just assumming that Tonks would have approached first since Tonks so dearly wanted to marry him and be with him, ( as we saw in HBP hospital scene) On the other hand, he was refusing to marry her, so naturally he didnt propose because he wanted Tonks to lead a normal life and all..

I'm in LupinLand? I'm finally here? Glory and trumpets!
How do you think Lupin proposed to Tonks or how do you think Tonks proposed to Lupin?I think that Remus proposed to Tonks, instead of the other way around. Tonks showed Remus how much she didn't care about his "furry little problem" so many times that Remus just caved in and finally let his feelings for her (which he had been hiding for such a long time) come to light and finally popped the question!
I must admit, though. I was a bit upset when I found out that he was getting married. :'( I wanted Remus all to myself. Selfish much, eh?

I always disapear off SPELL for what seems like forever. I don't know why, but I always do. Well, I'm going to try to change that.
How do you think Lupin proposed to Tonks or how do you think Tonks proposed to Lupin?I think Lupin proposed to Tonks. It took all of Tonks' effort to get Remus to realize his feelings for her, because he was scared to commit to someone (I think) because he was a werewolf. He was scared, or possibly even in denial that somebody would want to be with him, that though it took Tonks all the effort to get Remus to commit to somebody, once he realized how much he cared for Tonks, he propsed.
For some reason, Lupin seems like a very deep, emotional character, and for that matter I can see him proposing to Tonks. As for how he propsed, I don't think he got down on one knee and popped the question. I can picture him just, telling her. Sitting at the kitchen table, looking her right in the eyes and saying, "Tonks, I want to marry you."
Don't know why, but I can picture it so clearly in my mind.

PS- Is SPELL still president-less? This forum always seems to slow down a smidge for awhile, so just wondering. Or I could be way behind in the times.

SPELLers. No, we still don't have a president because I haven't received any applications for the position. If you are interested in leading SPELL, please send me your interest via PM. I'd hate to see this beloved group close down for lack of interest.

can't close down SPELL.

Where else will I get my fill of Remus? (sighs as heart flutters at the mention of his name

I certainly couldn't be the president, I shut down anything I ever start like this (smooth, eh?), so, for something this big, we need someone responsible, which is anyone other then me.

Woot! Go HarryPotterIsLife! Congratz! You will do really well be the bestest president ever! I hope. I'm sure I don't hope in vain. You won't let me down, will you HarryPotterIsLife?
A question:
Where is the importance of ending Remus's life? Even if it was for a good cause, couldn't Remus kill the Death Eater and live instead of them both going down?
I have taken special care to make sure the D-word was not connected with Remus. I have worded it differently so the D-word was not there. Please don't yell at me for implying the D-word.
HarryPotterIsLife
Nov 14 2008, 09:43 PM

I promise I will not let you guys down! We will get this thread back on it's feet and running in no time!
First off, before I answer the question to get the thread going again, I'll introduce myself to those of you who don't know me. My name here on VTM is HarryPotterIsLife, but outside the computer screen, my name is Sam. I live in the US, in Massachussettes. I've been a huge Lupin fan since he was first introduced, and I abseloutely love David!
I will get this thread back up and running, but I need you guys, the Lovely Lupin Lovers, to help get this thread back up and running! We missed the Official Lupin Day, November 1st, so I'm thinking a Belated Official Lupin Day on December First will be in order!
To get it the conversation going again, since I'm here I'll answer the question Sister asked.
Where is the importance of ending Remus's life? Even if it was for a good cause, couldn't Remus kill the Death Eater and live instead of them both going down?Well, JKR first said she wasn't going to kill Remus and Tonks in the final battle, but at the last minuet changed her mind, saying since she saved Arthur Weasley from the snake bite, she (against her will) had to kill of Lupin.
But, I'm a firm believer that everything happens for a reason, and I think thats how it was with Lupin. He was a intelligent, calm, gentle, and good-natured person, and somehow managed to find the silver lining in most situations and he was always trying to ease the atmosphere around him. He had Tonks and Teddy, and he fought until the very end. The importance in his death I'd have to say was to show that not everyone lives happily ever after.

Remus did have a great ending to his life, even though he did leave Teddy behind, he left with a great past, and many accomplishments. I like JKR wanted Lupin to "leave with a bang". What I'm saying is that Lupin accomplished so much throughout his life, it was his time to go, to let the others carry on what he had begun, which is where Teddy came in. (Like I said, everything happens for a reason.) I believe Teddy was born to carry on Remus' accomplishments, to become just as sucessful as his father once was.
Well, it's getting late, and I'm sure this post is probably a bunch of mumble at the moment. I'll most likely come back to edit some of it, so it's not a bunch of jumble.
Oh, before I forget.
*cuts red ribbon*
Let's get S.P.E.L.L back up and running! Post, post, post!
Sam
EDIT: Since S.O.S.S. and other Chracter threads have 'top posters of the month' (Or in SOSS, Snape Devotees), I'm thinking we could start it over here in Lupinland!

It'll be motivation to get people to start posting again. Thing is, we need a spiffy name for the monthly Lupin Lover, so think up some names to throw around and it can be the official name for the monthly winner!

Firstly, Congratulations, Sam. I am sure you will do great as a president of S.P.E.L.L
Now, as for the answer to the question, I agree with Sam. Remus left a fine example for Teddy to follow. The importance of his death, was prehaps that it would give a good example to all. He, being a werewolf fought for the good and did not bite inoccent kids, like Greyback did. He took less or no offense personally. He devotted his life to support Dumbledore and Harry to destroy Voldemort. He did great job while he was with te Order and thus, his death was not a waste but a symbol for braveness.
Sister to the Dark Lord
Dec 17 2008, 08:39 PM
OK, so this thread seems a bit dead, so I have come up with a new question:
Other then being young, what part of Remus compelled Greyback to choose him to become the next werewolf? After all, Greyback does have a system for choosing who to leave alone and who to change, as is metioned by JKR, but never explained throughly.
Simple, I know it seems, but once thought about, complex and thought-provoking. After a bit, I think I will answer my own question, but not yet! I want to see what y'all think about it.
Radcliffefreek
Dec 25 2008, 06:21 PM
Well, the answer was given by Remus in the series. Remus's father did something that offended Greyback and so he went for Remus and made him a werewolf too.

Really? Hmmm, I never notived that conversation. Could you do me a favor and tell me where it is? It's not that I don't believe you, because I do, it's just that I've read the books so many times I can't believe I missed it!
And if anyone does want to answer the question to get the talking rolling, go ahead! But since Radcliffefreek already told us about Remus's father offending Greyback, let's get some more ideas!
HarryPotterIsLife
Jan 2 2009, 01:12 AM
-sighs- Guys, where did you all go? I miss all the SPELL members, we need to go find some!
And yes, Lupin explained to Harry I believe in the sixth book, Lupin explains to Harry that his father provoked Greyback, I think he stood up for the muggles (Or I could just be going insane), so to get back at his father, Greyback bit Lupin. But yes, it's somewhere in Half Blood Prince.
I have a couple Lupin questions to try to get the forum going again! We will get SPELL back up and running guys, I promise.
What kind of wedding do you think Lupin and Tonks had? It was quiet, but what kind of vows do you think were exchanged, what was the set up, ect?
What do you think was going through Lupin's mind as Greyback bit him? Do you believe he knew what was happening, or he didn't register until after it happened?
What do you think Lupin thought as he left Grimmlaud Place after the fight with Harry in Dealthy Hallows? Do you think he was angry at Harry, taken aback or scared (ectect) ?
Ok, some of these questions might have been asked before, but since nobody has posted in forever, we'll just work with these for now if that's fine.
Oh, and I have a question for you Lupin Lovers. How many of you have a MySpace and/or LiveJournal? I was thinking about making a MySpace for our beloved Lupin, and have everyone here on VTM who love him help out with the site. Let me know and we can work on it, just to get SPELL up and going. And if you have any ideas how to get SPELL back in buisness, let me know!

Here she comes to save the day!
What kind of wedding do you think Lupin and Tonks had? It was quiet, but what kind of vows do you think were exchanged, what was the set up, ect? The vows that were probably said along the lines of, "loving each other as long as they both live, in any circumstances, and helping one another through the good and dark times especially, and defending one another, respectively from the things that may do them harm."
Outside, in the nice, summer air, maybe in a sparse wood, with the flowers st their feet, and animals chattering in the treetops. It would be peaceful for the two of them, not getting much of it at the time.
What do you think was going through Lupin's mind as Greyback bit him? Do you believe he knew what was happening, or he didn't register until after it happened?Lupin was no fool, he probably knew what was happening at the time of the bite. He was probably frightened at the huge, disgusting werewolf that was atop him. There was probably also confusion at the fact as to
why he was being bitten in the first place.
Did Remus even know about Greyback's fight with his father? I can't remember if he does...
What do you think Lupin thought as he left Grimmlaud Place after the fight with Harry in Dealthy Hallows? Do you think he was angry at Harry, taken aback or scared (ectect)?He was most definitely shocked at what Harry said to him. Harry doesn't really do that too much with few people, does he? And yes, there was some anger, but I think it was mostly directed at himself. He realized that Harry was right. He (Remus) can't just leave his own child behind! It wouldn't be right, and he saw this as Harry said it, but was a bit to proud to agree with him at the time.
Was that decent, Sam? I have a Myspace if you would like help with your project. I think it's a fine idea.
Sister to the Dark Lord
Jan 3 2009, 06:05 PM
Half-Blood Prince? OK, thanks Sam. Oh, and I don't have a Myspace or a LiveJournal. But it's still a good idea!
What do you think was going through Lupin's mind as Greyback bit him? Do you believe he knew what was happening, or he didn't register until after it happened?
Remus was always saying how foolhardy he was when he was young, so I think that he was out during the full moon because his parents told him not to. I think that when Greyback bit him, Remus was thinking, "What's happening, Mommy? Daddy? What's going on? I don't like this, make it stop! I'm sorry I didn't listen to you; make it stop!" Remember, he was only four at the time. I think that Remus knew what was happening, but the force fo the knowledge and the consequences that it would have on his life didn't really hit until after. If you know what I mean, you can imagine the trama it would have on a four-year-old.

Hmmm. I love
Lupin. I find him one of the few people I actually consider true heros in the book.

But, I would love to join SPELL.
What do you think was going through Lupin's mind as Greyback bit him? Do you believe he knew what was happening, or he didn't register until after it happened?I think since Lupin was so young, I forget exactly how young, he probably didn't know what was going on completley. His mind was probably telling him Somthing is biting you.
You should RUN! But, of course, Greyback's a werewolf, so. I think it didn't register totally what had actually happen until after the attack.
What kind of wedding do you think Lupin and Tonks had? It was quiet, but what kind of vows do you think were exchanged, what was the set up, ect? I love imaging up stuff like this. I assume it was probably somewhere woodsy. It would of been a small wedding, including, most likely, the Order, Harry, Hermion, the Weasleys, etc. It would of been simple. They would of said how much they loved each other; I think the vows would of been written by themselves, rather than traditional vows. It would of been romantic. =D

I created the SPELL Lupin MySpace, but I have yet to do anything with it, since it's pushing 12:30 AM and I'm pretty tired. But tomorrow I will work on it, and when I have finished spiffing it up I'll post the URL for the MySpace for those of you who have them, and you can Friend Reuest it and such.
But also, I would love if you guys threw around ideas of what should go on the MySpace, such as layout, style and ect. I have the About Me and such done and all that, but what do you guys want it to look like? I want to include all you lovely Lupin Lovers to help out and have everyone like it, so either PM me or post here

Just a random question that's been bugging me:
Did Remus ever play Quidditch? If he did, what position did he play? If he didn't, which position do you think he would've played if he did, and why?
This was probably answered in the books too, I bet.....

What kind of wedding do you think Lupin and Tonks had? It was quiet, but what kind of vows do you think were exchanged, what was the set up, ect?
I think it would have been a very silent weeding, in the open with only the close Order members invited, along with Ted Tonks and his wife.. The vows.. well Remus wopuld say something very short and sweet, till carrying the burder of having caused Tonks a danger by agreeing to marry her and Tonks would go on and on expressing her feelings and how she was happy to marry him and all.. I somehow think, Remus would be a bit tearfull..
What do you think was going through Lupin's mind as Greyback bit him? Do you believe he knew what was happening, or he didn't register until after it happened?
I think he knew what had happened only after the nightmare had passed.. I think even after he was bitten, he would have been unable to understand what really happened,, his father might have filled him in, with more details..
What do you think Lupin thought as he left Grimmlaud Place after the fight with Harry in Dealthy Hallows? Do you think he was angry at Harry, taken aback or scared (ectect) ?
He would be very angry on Harry, as he did when Harry called him a coward. At that time, he wanted nothing more but to get away from Tonks, so as to protect her. He was, of course willing to help Harry and this could be the best reason to ensure that Tonks was safe. I don't blame him at all that he ever asked Harry to allow him to accompany the Trio.. So, ya, he would have been very angry on Harry after leacing the Grimauld Place, because he was trying to protect Tonks and help Harry. Certainly, he wouldn't like being called a coward for this.. He changed his mind, though when Teddy was born. One look at the innocent baby would have made him realise that he wanted to be with Tonks and their kid..

I've been thinking about what to call the "poster of the month" in here. I was thinking "Lupinette," but I don't think guys would like that. What about "Ludicrispin Lover"? I know it's a long shot, but I'm trying.
Did Remus ever play Quidditch? If he did, what position did he play? If he didn't, which position do you think he would've played if he did, and why?I'm sure Remus played Quidditch with James, Sirius, and Peter, but I don't remember anything about him being on a team. I think he would of played Keeper because he seems to be the kind of guy who has a lot of patience. He's not as harsh to be a Beater, and I don't see him as a Chaser. Ahh! Maybe he was a Seeker, because he is the smaller type, and he probably would of been light enough to play that position very well.
I do truly doubt he was on a team though. If you think about it, when he disappeared every month, he couldn't play Quidditch at all, so it would be sort of hard, maybe. But then again, James played and yet he and the other Mauraders stayed with Lupin..... Okay sorry, I'm confusing myself. These are just my thoughts. But we need to keep active here, because well, I feel lonely....
Sister to the Dark Lord
Jan 19 2009, 08:04 PM
Hey, mugglelovrspew, what does "Ludicrispin" mean? Just wondering.....
And for a "poster of the month" caption, would you mind if I gave you some suggestions? You'll probably come up with something better in the end, but I just feel I need to post something that could be useful.
Some of my ideas are:
SPELLer of the Month
January '09 SPELLer
Lycanthropic
And that's it. The creativity vaut is drained. You probably have something much better on the go, so just ignore this post if you do.

Keep up the posting guys, we're getting there - even if it is the just the two or three of you that stop by. We'll start getting new people, I might send PMs to people who have a liking to Lupin to get this forum going again.
What I was also thinking was that we could start a shiny new thread, since the Forum is doing a sort of clean up - new year, new thread. I'll talk to one of the Mods and ask them about it. Maybe if they See SPELL V5, people will want to stop by some more. Just a thought.
As for the Lupin name for the devotee of the month, I'm still thinking up a name, I want to see if some people have any ideas out there, and I'll get some ideas going. But
sister, thanks for the ideas, I'll keep them in mind.
I'll come by again to answer some questions, I'm super busy at the moment with a three test grade worthy project. *cringues* So hopefully when that's done I'll be a better president and poke around some more.

Ok guys, I think I
might have the Monthly Lupin name, if you guys like it. I was thinking something along the lines of
Lupinette of the Month or
Lupinite of the Month, but if you think it's too feminine, or dislike anything about it, then let me know. Or we could go with something more simple, just plain SPELL Devotee of the Month.
I came back to say I have a Lupin one shot story or a collaboritive fic for Valentines Day in mind. Valentines Day is
February 14th, so I was thinking that you guys could come up with an idea here on SPELL, and we can vote on whose idea is the most creative, and we can base the story line of the one shots off the winning story line.

Get thinking!

HarryPotterIsLife, I like that name, but the UHFC(Unofficial Hermione Fan Club) has a thing called "Hermione-ette", so I still think we should try to do something original. I still like it though.
Maybe we could have a fanfic idea as to where Lupin has a "love affair," well not really affair, but bear with me. He could have a love affair while he a werewolf with another werewolf maybe and then life changes when he's human again. And they do remember things from when they're a werewolf to when they're human too, right? It's not very good, but I was trying to be original.

FanFic idea:
OK, Valentime's is coming up during one of Remus's years at Hogwarts. There's going to be a Valentime's ball and James is (unsuccessfully) trying to get Lily to go with him, Peter isn't even going, and Sirius is going with the highest bidder. Our Remus doesn't have a date (because he feels that his "furry little problem" will make him a danger to any girl), but Sirius and Lily team up and go matchmaking without Remus's consent or knowledge!
PS: Lily knows about Remus's "furry little problem", so she knows that she and Sirius are looking for a girl who won't mind if she finds out.
Ha ha, that would be funny and fluffy.....
mugglelovrspew
Jan 26 2009, 08:58 PM
Oh, that's so funny! I love the idea. It would be really cool. So, would we make up our own characters or have to use a character that would be there at Hogwarts at the time as Lupin's love interest? I think it's a lot better than mine, but we need more and there's nobody in here anymore.

Hmm, what can we do?
Sister to the Dark Lord
Jan 29 2009, 10:44 PM
mugglelovrspew, we would probably use a character that we created ourselvers to have Remus fall for, because Lily is obviously James's, even if she doesn't even know it yet, Tonks was born in Remus's first year, so she's not at Hogwarts, (if we set this story in fifth year, she'd only be four years old) and creating an OC (OC stands for "Other Character", which means a character that is in a fanfic but not in the official books) for Remus to fall in love with would be better overall for people who don't like watching fanfics force together original characters that will eventually fall in love with someone else (such as a Sirius/Lily pairing).
Oh, and I'm glad you like the idea!

On a more serious note, I think that Remus would've found a nice werewolf girl. After all, Greyback was out and about in the 1960s so he most likely bit a little girl around the same age as Remus.
What do you think Remus would of done/said to Peter had he actually got his hands on him?Heh heh heh, if Remus had gotten his hands on Peter, there would be no words exchanged. All that would be left of Peter is a finger - and Remus would make sure that the rest of Peter was blown to smitherins this time as it was supposed to be when Sirius first confronted the traitor!

Well, Sister to the Dark Lord, ha, I have to agree with you. The Mauraders are all hard to pair, and Tonks wasn't who I would of thought of originally, but she fits with him good. I think someone, another character, would have to be made for him because he's not complex, but he's not simple, and being a werewolf, another werewolf might have helped his self-esteem maybe.
What do you think Teddy's life would of been like had his father and mother not been killed?
I think Remus would of made sure his son was adventurous and had a really cool life. Sort of kept the Maurader in him alive in the next generation. It would of been interesting to see Teddy getting into mischeif, but still being a metamorphic, being able to change who he looked like, haha. That would be so much fun!

Teddy at least has family in the wizarding world to raise him, so I really think his life is going to be just fine. However, he will miss his mother and father....the people that gave him life and he never knew them.What's your favorite trait of Remus'?I like how he helped Harry even when it was putting his job and even life on the line. I mean all the teachers at Hogwarts did that, but Remus and Sirius were the most important ones because they were very close to Harry's father.

Radcliffefreek
Apr 11 2009, 07:00 PM
My favorite trait about Remus is the way he peacefully lives in the wizarding world. He, like many other werewolves didn't follow the wrong path and he followed the true path. He never once wished to make children or any other human a victim of himself. He never once, thought of making a whole new world og werewolves. He could have thought of making a better and largere werewolve community, in rder to give himself justice... Thus, I like the fact that he was one of the rare good-hearted werewolves..

Hello? Where did everyone go?

Let's have a question to (hopefully) get the conversation rolling!
What do you think Remus enjoyed as a child? His favourite game? His favourite book? Expand and explain!I have a galleon on me. Who wants to bet that this question has already been answered?

Cheers,
Ty

I'm assuming that, to join, you just ask to join? This is me asking to join =) To prove my loyalty (haha), I shall answer the above question...
What do you think Remus enjoyed as a child? His favourite game? His favourite book? Expand and explain!
I believe Remus' favorite book as a child probably had something to do with a character overcoming his obstacles. Since Remus had, in his mind, an unconquerable challenge, he probably wanted to read about characters who had a chance of making their dreams come true. In my mind, he becomes progressively more romantic as he gets older, so as a teen he probably enjoyed romance novels. Not the cheesy, tawdry kind, but legitimate, true-love sort of romance sort of novel. And I don't see him playing many games after becoming a werewolf (at six, right?). He--and probably the rest of his family--decided he needed to grow up and mature very quickly, so he didn't get to enjoy childhood like the regular wizard kid.

What do you think Remus enjoyed as a child? His favourite game? His favourite book? Expand and explain!I think that Remus would have enjoyed being mischievous, maybe a practical-joker. After joining Hogwarts he was a very good Maruader, and so this is where I get that impression. However, he was also in to studying and reading, and wasn't as crazy as Sirius or James.
His favourite book? Hmm, a hard one. Perhaps, seeing as that he returned to teach in Hogwarts, he read Hogwarts: A History a lot like Hermione? (Assuming that Remus did return to Hogwarts to teach, and not to protect Harry). He also liked DADA, so maybe he read books on them, or even Dark creatures?
And his favourite game? Other than playing practical jokes I would probably have to say Quidditch

, maybe as a Keeper?
So, am I a member of SPELL??

What's your favourite trait of Remus?
I definately like the fact that he is the most responsible out of all the Marauders. He is also really cute and brilliant. He is kind and caring and is a really loyal friend to everyone.

Oh my gosh, I haven't been on here in forever... I'm sorry I forgot you guys!
Moving on:
What's your favorite trait of Remus?
I agree with FollowTheSpiders. He definitely cares and is kind and all that. I like how the first thing I can think about him right now is when he was holding Harry back from the veil in the fifth movie.

Oh dear I have been away sooo long … forgive me … ?
Firstly, I welcome anyone new to S.P.E.L.L
Secondly, I want to congratulate
HarryPotterIsLife our new S.P.E.L.L president. Good luck.

Last time I posted was just about over a year ago! That’s shocking, how bad of me? Since then I have missed about twelve questions…I hope no-one minds if I answer them all …probably not all in this post though
Other then being young, what part of Remus compelled Greyback to choose him to become the next werewolf? After all, Greyback does have a system for choosing who to leave alone and who to change, as is mentioned by JKR, but never explained thoroughly.Lupin was bitten by Greyback because Lupin’s father (of whose name we don’t learn) offended Greyback although how he offended him, if I remember correctly, isn’t told. Greyback was known as the most savage werewolf ever known to the wizarding world and he was feared by everyone. Fenrir had an agenda which was to create as many werewolves as possible and Lupin became apart of that when his father offended him.
What do you think was going through Lupin's mind as Greyback bit him? Do you believe he knew what was happening, or he didn't register until after it happened?I believe that, although Remus was young what it happened, he remembers it until his dying day. There is something Lupin says - can’t remember when in the series but here it is:
"at the full moon, [Greyback] positions himself close to victims, ensuring that he is near enough to strike. He plans it all." This suggests to me that he remembers the attack on himself by Greyback, he at least remembers the strike/bite. Lupin did comment on how horrible it was to transform into a werewolf,
“My transformations in those days were -- were terrible. It is very painful to turn into a werewolf.” So I imagine that the biting itself was extremely painful, I therefore think that all he could think of was the pain the attack brought him.
Did Remus ever play Quidditch? If he did, what position did he play? If he didn't, which position do you think he would've played if he did, and why?I can’t recall if Lupin did indeed play Quidditch…I’d imagine it would be difficult with his monthly cycle because matches can go on for a long time and if one were to go on during some nights, one of them with a full moon then … well … I am sure there a rules about werewolves on broomsticks playing Quidditch. But, for the questions sake, if he did play Quidditch I’d imagine he would play along side his friend James Potter who was in fact not a seeker but a chaser.
QUOTE
NOTE: In the first film, James was said to be a Seeker (PS/f), but JKR stated that he was a Chaser in the second Scholastic interview. Yes, the editors are aware that on a summer's day when he was 15 he was fooling around with a Golden Snitch - much more effective to impress girls than a Quaffle, of course, and something that proves nothing about which position he actually played. JKR said in Sch2 that James was a Chaser, so until she explicitly says otherwise, her word goes. Please note that this is an FAQ. -- MLW.

I’ll be back soon with answers to more of the questions.

Hi. Bad president residing. We need posts guys, we can't have VTM shut us down!
What do you think Remus would of done/said to Peter had he actually got his hands on him?
Remus isn't a viscious human being. I believe if he did see Peter before PoA in the Shrieking Shack, I can't see him attacking Peter at all. He would have been extremely furious with him, and might have yelled, but I can't see him getting viscious with Peter.
I could see him drawing his wand out at Peter, just to threaten him and scare him, but never actually harm Peter. He'd probably make him realize what he did, killing his best friend and wife, and framing his other mate, and make him feel absolutely horrible about it.
So, post away guys! Gogogo!

This is my first post on SPELL, so I'll answer the most recent question.
What do you think Remus would of done/said to Peter had he actually got his hands on him?I completely agree with
HarryPotterIsLife, I cannot imagine Lupin just going up to Peter and attacking him. But I do think he would have threatened him with his wand and made him feel really bad about everything he did. I don't know what happened to Peter.. I mean I never really liked him as much as the other Marauders.. but I did feel kind of bad in DH in Malfoy's Manner, where he loosens his grip on Harry..and you know. But, still that doesn't make up for what he did.

Anyway back to Lupin

I think Lupin would have just been really mad at Peter and wouldn't have hesitated in showing it.
