Bribe." Canonically Tonks seems to have different priorities than Ginny 
and might never have agreed Lupin should go. And one can 
imagine Lupin avoiding the confrontation and just leaving her a note 
for all we know. Or maybe he just, like Harry, announced he was 
doing it and went off, either with Tonks angry or weepy or with 
Tonks bravely supporting him like Ginny. Or perhaps they did discuss 
it. I don't remember if Harry asked anything about this.
 
Tiffany:

I think that Lupin wouldn't want a confrontation in "The Bribe" based 
on what I've read, but that's strictly speculation on my part based on 
my knowledge of Lupin & Tonks in DH.  I don't recall either if Harry 
asked about this or not, but if it was asked I'm sure it was an "off-
the-page" occurence that we as readers will possibly not know about.
