So wow. Remus is such a horrible person because he apparently is keeping Tonks under the illusion that their marriage is worth something and apparently is trying to make it work to a certain degree (and who knows? Maybe it's cold feet. It doesn't seem like he got a chance to have that prior to the wedding), is trying to rid the world of an irrevocably evil person and is suffering pangs of guilt because after being exposed to a lifetime of prejudice and misinformation, he has a wife and a child and can put them in danger not only socially, but physically, not only from him, but probably anyone in the wizarding world who felt they could get away with killing them.
Exactly! Granted, I don't think that the marriage would work between Remus and Tonks as they have been warped into being in HBP and DH (though I'll consider that marriage between OotP Remus and OotP Tonks could have worked). But what the hell is wrong with Remus trying to defeat his world's ultimate evil and attempting to save the life of his wife and his child as well? At least he's making an effort, which is more than--oh, EVERYONE is doing?
But of course this is all to make the reunion between the lovers extra poignant because they're going to die soon after. *barf*
Well, we never see the reunion between the lovers. Or their deaths. So the poignancy never really occurs.
