Oh my! This was really fabulous! I loved Millicent here and the idea of her as a dressmaker rather like The House of Eliott was so charming. I could totally imagine her doing beautiful designs in secret while she's under Madam Malkin's thumb. It was wonderful seeing Hermione and Millicent meet again and how Hermione fell for Millicent and influenced her decision to finally start out on her own. The relationship between the two was really sweet!

I also LOVED the side Snarry, Viktor (yay, Viktor!) as Millicent's friend, and Ron's shyness and feelings towards Pansy. I especially loved the mirror scene with Ron and the ending. Really beautifully done! :D

Thank you for you kind comments, my dear!
Yeah, I love giving characters unusual occupations, and I think I settled on seamstress for Millie because it would be a great way for her to meet Hermione again. :)
*g* Background Snarry is apparently my big 'tell', but I'm not sure I want to change that. ;)
*pets Viktor* I was close to having Viktor be Millie's ex-BF, but it was more fun to have him be unrequitedly lusting after both of them. *g*
I also have a soft spot for Ron/Pansy, so yay that you enjoyed them. :)

Yeesh, I really do suck at figuring out who wrote what if I can't even take a guess because of that, lol! (Reply to this) (Parent)
