Title: Valley of the Dragons

Rating: G
Possible Spoilers/Warnings: None
Author's Notes: The first part of this story is quite heavily based on “Hanazakari no Kimitachi e” - a Japanese teen series. I own nothing of that, and have only merged the idea with the HP universe, which I also do not own. The second part is an original plot based ( Read more... )

This was wonderful! I'd love to know if Draco completed his personal task.

Thank you! It was a bit choppy, I think. I probably shouldn't have handed it in so early. As this was based on the first episode of a series, as well as an ongoing serial, I sort of went for a "first chapter" feel. It could easily go on for a very, very long story, and I was afraid of getting into that for the ficexchange timeframe.

My first thought when I saw the 'Author's Notes' was 'Really? Hana Kimi?' I presume that you watched it? Anyway, back to the fic... I loved the modified version of Quidditch with it being more dangerous with the dragons about! The way Draco is portrayed was also quite good, with the aloofness, which also, coincidentally matches the male lead of Hana Kimi which I thought was quite an interesting thing to pick up on. Can't wait to see the other part of what you have planned for this!

Yes I did manage to find a translated version of Hana Kimi online and watched it there to adapt the first part of the story. I hadn't even known about the series until I got this prompt for the exchange. Thanks for letting me know I got Draco's character right. When I saw the character on Hana Kimi for the first time, he was a perfect image of Draco for me.

Not meaning to rant, but I at least try to leave a review on as many others submissions as possible. With 60+ writers, and only 2 taking a moment to give feedback? I know the story kinda sucks, but it was a tough prompt to begin with. I thought I was at least clever in working with it. Hmmph.

I thought I had read all the stories posted but I guess I missed this one. Odd. Or else I would've reviewed sooner. Anyway, thank you for the fun read. I was disappointed we didn't get to see Draco fulfill his mission so I hope you continue writing this!!

Thanks for letting me know you'd like more, and I greatly appreciate that you took the time to send a squee. Unfortunately, with so little feedback on the story, I'm not sure there's enough interest in the idea for me to continue. As it is, I had to do research into both plots for the exchange prompt that I had, so, I'm not sure I'm familiar enough with the Dragon Ball universe to do another episode properly.
