Tonks and Charlie Weasley had been together since their 5th year at Hogwarts, and Tonks had been for a long time, an adoptive member of the redheaded clan. She spent a lot of time at The Burrow, even though Charlie spent most of the year as a dragon tamer in Romania. Her connection with the Weasleys, her relation to Sirius, and her status as an Auror, made her an invaluable friend to Remus. She was also one of the few who they trusted regarding Sirius’ whereabouts. The two cousins had formed a fast friendship, and Sirius was happy to surround himself with family, including Tonk’s mother, Andromeda. Andromeda had been blasted from the Black family tree for marrying a muggleborn named Ted, which instantly made her Sirius’ favorite cousin.
