Rating: PG-13

Warnings: Nothing graphic- strictly subtext of sex and menace.  Creepiness.  Barty Crouch Jr. singing show tunes. 

Author’s Note: “I Could Have Danced All Night” from My Fair Lady was written by Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Loewe.  The title for this piece was lifted from a nifty movie Miranda Richardson (no doubt familiar to many as Rita Skeeter) and Rupert Everett made about twenty years ago.

Disclaimer: I did not create these characters. I do not own them. I do not profit from their use and abuse in any way.
Author's notes: This is my first Snape/Lupin story.  It was written for Master and the Wolf 6th Wave Challenge prompt #15- Severus' first lover, Regulus Black, spent the first nine years of his life doing what Remus did throughout his school years: living in the shadow of Sirius Black. It created similarities between them, and Severus is noticing, and remembering. Regulus can be good/RAB/an initial redemptive influence, and Remus, like his predecessor, inspires Severus to aid the inevitably ungrateful (Post-HBP) world.

Stories can not be reposted until a month after the 6th Wave Challenge ends on 07/31/06.  The link below is to the story posted on Master and Wolf-
