I appreciate the atmosphere of your fic. The inner monologues of the diverse characters. YOu have humanized and given backstory to those who are later cast as the villians.

THANK YOU! <3 I totally see the Civil War/Gone With the Wind thing all the time! While it's obviously a racist/terrorist movement, I see them viewing it as a last chance for preservation type of thing.

& so funny that we both had each other for springtime gen! well I'm so glad that you liked this :) & I really enjoyed yours so much!

Ohhh I only now realized that we had each other lol. That is pretty cool. BTW, sorry the formatting on mine was so wonky, I don't know what happened. It was fine in the word doc when I sent it in. LJ just hated it or something.

I love this. I really get the impression that there's an entire world here, from which you've just picked off a few pertinent details (hopefully that's come out right - it's intended as a compliment!). I enjoyed all the POVs, but Bella's is the perfect way to finish. Such great observations!

I love this tiny glimpse into a very complicated world. They're people with all sorts of agendas and plots, not just cackling villainous caricatures.

I love the backstory and connections that you provided for these characters. I can really relate to Severus' comment about why would anyone buy anything that wasn't books. ;) Great job in giving us such a wonderful glimpse into a lesser known side of the HP world!

Thank you! Like seriously, how's he supposed to feel when the Malfoys own peacocks who probably eat better than he does ;) glad you liked it!!
