Short, sweet, and beautiful. I particularly liked how you wrote Fleur as a mare who truly loves her husband, rather than a stuck-up trophy wife. The premise is mundane, but that little twist to the ending makes this a snippet I could easily see happening in the real show! There are a few grammatical missteps, but nothing really worth mentioning in a public forum. You also did a great job of defining the scene, building up to the climax of the action, and ending the story on a high note. Very well done indeed!
Very well done, you certainly did a great job with Fleur.

Funny thing is that despite all the crap the fandom does to the characters I really haven't seen any fic that shows Fleur as a stuck up trophy wife, even in fics that make her have more beauty than brains always show her being loving and loyal to Fancy (or to who even she may be shipped with).
This was cute..made me chuckle
not bad, fairly predictable, but not bad.
Good job, I expected the invader to be a replacement maid x) Faved and thumbed up.

I have, that's why it's so good to read this one. I've seen stories where she's just using Fancypants for his money and cheating on him behind his back, under the assumption that "he must do it too on those business trips". I've seen ones where she's an absolute airhead who can barely dress herself. I've seen some pretty nasty stuff where she secretly hates him and wants him dead, stories where he's literally paying her to act as his wife for the sake of his public image, and of course the ones where Fleur is secretly a Changeling who is leeching his love for the Hive Cluster.
But, I've also seen quite a few cute ones. One story was a suggestion of how Fancy and Fleur met. It was a cute thing, she had been dating Blueblood and he had thrown her out after she finally decided to stop putting up with his crap. She was walking across the city in the rain without so much as a coat when Fancypants ran across her, and did as any gentleman would do.
I've read a few others where he quietly hates the "high-society" life but endures it because Fleur so loves the spotlight, and she honestly loves him too.
That's why I can humbly say, as someone who's read quite a few stories like this, that the author really hit the nail on the head here. Good job, Twinkletail, and keep writing!
Short, sweet, and utterly pointless. Just what I needed.
I hate spiders!

Hmm, apparently a Spider Lover of some kind has downvoted you.
...or perhaps... a spider?
I decided to read another fic with Fleur-de-Lis in it-this time a short story. And I must say, I got some good laughs in this one.
You can has review!
But— It— I thought— That wasn't what I was expecting.
Well-written, and the end was a surprise. 
I chuckle, but I used to be just as bad, if not worse. A wolf spider could reduce me to the screaming-meemies from five meters away.
happy 100 to 0! :)

Thank you! Is it bad that it took me far too long to understand what I was being congratulated for? I’ve been out of the game a bit too long haha
