You got the details almost exactly right! Although I am a little irrated that you only chise to include the downtown area, but it was a really good story and you incorprated the First Nation artwork into the story effortlessly.

Just a tiny note: I feel like the prostitutes are along Burrard rather than Granville:). But that's just me.

Author's Response: I'm glad I managed to get the details mostly right. I was working largely from memory, based on only two visits to the city, so I'm actually amazed that I was close. I stuck mostly with downtown, because that's where I spent the most time when I was there (that and the UBC campus). I put the prostitutes on Granville because on my first visit, I stayed in a hotel on Granville, and remember being a little shocked by all of the strip clubs, shops selling sex toys, and things like that. Of course, that was more than ten years ago, so things might be quite different today. Anyway, thanks for the comments!

That was too sweet. :) I liked the idea of the plaque and the figurines, and the self discovery that went along with them. And the ending was just perfect!

Author's Response: Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Booooo... I've read all of your stories now... what will I do to pass the time! (I actually have a D/G story at fanfiction that I really should be working on but your stories were so good they completely distracted me!)

I hope you keep adding to them :)

Author's Response: Thank you! I'm glad you have enjoyed them. We'll have to see if I actually end up writing more though--the muse seems to come and go unexpectedly. Thanks for reading!

Great Job, it was really fun reading this one! Especially since I worked at the Museum of Anthro. for three years! Lol! And to think I only thought the basement had a few classrooms, textile storage, conservation lab, and an obsidian knapping pit. Although there is a really creepy long hallway down there.. maybe it leads to the Magical Department?! And golly, Draco Malfoy in Vancouver all this time - *swoon* I can't believe Ginny got to him before me...hehe
One little thing - I know you are not an expert on West Coast First Nations art - bears and otters are commonly used, doves not really at all. Raven is the most commonly used bird, and is prevalent among most groups' art - though he is known as the 'trickster' =;-) It didn't take away from your story though, and is only a nitpicky thing.
Cheers- sweetproserpina

Author's Response:

Oh, wow! A review from an expert! How wonderful! I'm afraid it has been long enough since I wrote the story that I don't remember the reasons for all the decisions I made about the First Nations art, so I'm not sure where I got the dove imagery, but I'm pretty sure I found at least one site on the internet that mentioned it. Maybe. I hope. Of course, not all sites on the internet are worth much, so it might have been wrong. Don't worry at all about the nitpicking! It is something I would do (actually, that I have done to some stories!).

 

I'm glad to be the one to tell you about the magical department. Of course, part of me wonders why you didn't recognize it earlier! Good luck with your career in anthro or whatever you choose!

Embellished, this is such an amazing story! It is officially one of my favorite Draco/Ginny Fanfictions, right next to your "In Vino Veritas". Keep up the great work!

Author's Response: I'm glad that you enjoyed it, and "In Vino Veritas". Thanks for reading and for the review!

Since this is the second time I've enjoyed this story, I decided to tell you! I love the plot, and their relationship is sweet and believable. Just as good the second time!

Author's Response: Thank you! I'm glad that you enjoyed it! Twice!

Haha Yes! I love Arthur so much right now! *dances* This is such a fantastic story I have no idea why I didn't read it sooner.

Author's Response: I love Arthur too. Thanks for reading!

Hi, I just want you to know I loved your story. Thanks so much!

I loved this story. 'Family, friendship and love, all in one'. That's such a true and wonderful principle. More should consider it when writing romance. I've always liked Draco and Ginny to discover friendship along the way if they are going to be married happily ever after. Thanks for a wonderful read.

Author's Response: Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

~I like the basic idea but most of it wasnt well written. I dont mean to say it was bad, but choppy and a bit unbelieveable, even for fanfic.~

Lovely. I liked how you used West Coast First Nations. Though, I only passed by the West Coast, I did see the Northwest Coast. They probably are nowhere alike but I thought they might be some-what similar. Their art was gorgeous! They wore traditional masks oftenly. Some wore Killer Whale masks that were so large they might be called body masks. Anyway, I better stop rambling. Thanxxx

Author's Response: It sounds like the art you saw might be similar to some of the stuff they have in the Museum of Anthropology in Vancouver. It really is beautiful, and it isn't such a stretch to think it might be magical. I'm glad you enjoyed the story!

Have just left a review for you on shardrive.livejournal.com but wanted to post here as well. Thanks for a lovely story, a happy ending and warm memories of a place that I am very much missing right now. Maybe I'll plan a visit to Wiltshire tomorrow to look for Draco here in the UK! :)

Author's Response: I responded on Live Journal, but once again, I am extremely happy that you liked the story and that it made you think of home!

im so glad i stumbled upon this fic. it's just perfectly wonderful. love the writing and not at all trashy as some fics that set their plots on other countries tend to be. hahahaha :D

Author's Response: I'm glad you didn't think it was trashy! :) Thanks for reading and for the review.
