Re: Harry/Remus
A lot of ills seem to be cured by death, I think. Death or celebrity.
But, no, the love story of James and Lily Potter was not made up, if anything, it was downplayed after they died as the focus shifted to you and your miraculous survival. What they have is very real. Anyone would be lucky to find it.
If I were to tell the truth, I wouldn't have minded the first time around, but I truly believed it to not be an option. I realized before I left school that the chances of finding someone to share that with was never going to happen, not in my time. Now, I have James' second-hand memories conflicting with my own.
