Hi all, another update!
Thank you to all of you who have looked at "Trainee" and a bigger thank you to those who reviewed! :D
I seem to have the writing bug again - as well as an actual bug that kept me home from school the last few days - and since I was up to date with all of my homework and had nothing to do... I wrote.
It's only a short one this time, titled "Furry Little Problem" (the title is rather self-explanatory) and I've also added it as a Google Document for anyone who's interested. :) There's a link in the column on the right, and a preview below:

Excerpt from "Furry Little Problem":

“What’s going on?” Remus asked, all traces of laughter vanishing from his face.

“We know,” James said after another glance at Sirius.

Remus blinked and his expression cleared completely. “You know what?” he asked calmly.

“Everything,” Sirius said, grinning. James elbowed him, rolling his eyes. The shaggy-haired boy scowled. “I was just trying to lighten the mood!” James sighed and Sirius gave him an apologetic look. “Fine. I’ll be serious.”

“Hard not to be, isn’t it?” James asked slyly. “It’s your name.”

“Now who’s not focusing?” Sirius shot back.

“Oops.” James gave Remus a guilty look. “Right, er... well... we know about where you go every month.”

Remus’ face was stone. “My mother’s very sick,” he said, gravely.

James smiled pityingly. “And so’s your Aunt Catherine-”

“-your Grandmother Florence-” Sirius said.

“-your cat-”

“-and your Uncle Benjamin.”

“My family are victims of a rare medical condition,” Remus said curtly.

James and Sirius sighed in unison and shared another look. “Rem,” James said gently, “your Grandmother’s died three times this year.”

That's all for the moment.
Bye for now!
