Rating: Explicit

Second Claim
Fic Title: Couple's Retreat

Rating: Mature
Word Count: 4,649

Just want to comment on the artwork - as a native Vancouverite, I'm always really surprised to see it as a location for any art or piece of writing. A/E isn't my ship, but I really like the artwork (hahaha, I love the skiing scene in the third image in the set) and I like that it's inspired someone to set a story in Vancouver. (And British Columbia!)

(Is there's an "exotic" side that I've missed because I've taken it for granted that I live here? Or the attention from the Olympics? Or maybe because TV and movies rarely feature Vancouver as Vancouver?)

Thanks for you comment! I really like hearing about the different bits that people like about the fics and artwork (The skiing one was really fun to get to draw :D )

I think for me, at any rate, Vancouver seems a bit exotic and special because that's where my grandparents lived for the longest time. So we would take big long family road trips out there when I was younger. We live on the Prairies, so no water and no mountains. As a kid it was all a bit magical :P I've been out there a fair bit, even now that I'm older, but I think I've retained that sense of wonder towards it! (It was always a bit dreamy...hence, I think, what drew me to doing something involving it for inception)

Hope that makes sense! ^.^ Thanks again
