Honestly, I use so little from DH in my personal canon that it's not even funny. I spend most of my time pretending it doesn't exist, actually! My own personal canon ends at HBP (and with Tonks, OotP) and Sirius and Regulus are really alive. But that's just me. I had a really hard time with a Death Eater-run Hogwarts, because I have a 10 year old, and I know I would have started a parent lynch mob and pulled those kids right out of school. So...yeah. ;) As far as my Andromeda with Remus, I can see her being angry that he left her daughter while she was pregnant. That was just not right at all. But the rest of it (the joblessness etc.) she would overlook because she would understand about that. But again, that's my personal canon. I have intertwined so much of my fic writing with my roleplaying, because RPGs really let you explore characters in depth in how they react with others.
