Yay! *new chapter dance* I want to thank you for continuing to share this wonderful story with us, and I hope it is as fun to write as it is to read. Ah, poor Penny. I should have known some dolt would bring the worst of the prior night's events to her attention. I bet she can't wait to get out of Edoras, but still, the sooner she gets to Gondor, the sooner she will have to say goodbye to everyone she knows from Rivendell. *sigh* I'm so emotionally invested in this story, and I still find myself thinking of Penny as a real person, wondering how her family is dealing with her absence. Wondering if how long she's been in Middle-earth has any kind of relation to how long she's been missing in our world. Will she ever get back? Does she even want to get back? How the heck did she get there? Oh, don't tell me the answer to any of these questions, I just wanted you to know that I was thinking about it. Very Happy smiley face

Looking forward to the next chapter like whoa. Smile smiley face

Well, I'll be honest. Your characterization of elves in general is not what I'm used to reading. They don't act the way I imagine they would in this fic. But you won me over. Your OC has got to be the last english speaking person on Earth who has never heard of Lord of the Rings and I love her anyway. The idea of women in Middle Earth not working is just wrong--in canon there is a woman in the House Of Healing who helps Aragorn to heal Faramir and Eowyn in RotK--and I can forgive the elves for not knowing that , but Aragorn? Please. Also, you switch between Aragorn's name before he knew who he really was, his actual name, and his royal name that is used in official documents. Kind of annoying, not really accurate. And yet I still liked ths story. I don't know how you did it. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I genuinely enjoyed reading this story, despite the fact that the OC runs off with an elf. And gets snogged by another, in a sort of love triangle! You make all those cliches fun and amusing, and I have to applaud you for it. Nice job.

Oh, I wish I had waited and not read this so quickly! But I couldn't stop myself and now I've finished all the posted chapters. I have to go to bed all sad because lord knows what's happened to Ela now. I'm so caught up in this fic! You are an awesome writer, thanks for writing this fic so well, and no matter how long it is before it's updated, I'll still admire you for the story you've posted so far.

I think I like this story even more then The Bard. I especially liked your version of events in Rohan from the point of view of those left behind when Theoden & co. went to fight in Gondor. The romance and dialogue is very real and entertaining. I'll definitely recommend this story to others and will be eagerly awaiting updates.

Eeeeee! This was a great chapter, but it only made me scream at the end. Surely you must know how highly anticipated the next chapter is to your faithful readers. I'm dying for it, man. This is still the best story ever. Just so you know.

Oh, hooray for frequent updates! Another brilliant chapter. Sheesh, these nosy elves! I would have died of embarrassment. But the part about Arwen made me so sad. Ugh, that's what makes the end so hard to think about. I can't imagine actually being there and seeing it. This story really is amazing. Thanks again for continuing it!

Man, Penny can't get a break. The reaction of the Lothlorien elves was to be expected, I suppose, but it was all the more hurtful after she'd been treated so kindly by the elves in Imladris. And I'm still all hyped up about what's going to happen when she meets Galadriel and finally tells Lindir the truth about where she comes from. Oh, the tension and excitement grows. I'm dying for the next chapter.

Woo hoo, quick with updates! Smile smiley face

I think I would have reacted the same way with the orcs. I feel a bit queasy just imagining it. Eww...
And the tension and anxiety about how Lindir will react builds even more. Oh, I hope they get to Lothlorien within a few chapters. But then, I know I'll love it anyway, there's so much left for Penny to see and do. I'm going to cry when this story ends, I just know it. Crying or Very sad smiley face

Absolutely brilliant work of fiction. So good you oughta get paid. I loved every bit of it. I loved the ending, but I was sad when I finished. Because there isn't any more. ;__; The best part of it was the realistic depiction of the characters, and life after the fall of Sauron. You nailed it; this is exactly what I imagined it would be like. Thank you so much for sharing it.

OMG welcome back! I'm so glad everything in RL worked out and allowed you to continue this story. Even though it was a WIP for so long I still recommend it to people because it is the best LotR story with a modern day OC, ever. I really enjoyed reading these two chapters. It was like you never left, honest. The narrative thread is right there, and I was totally sucked in again. And I loved every second of it. I can't wait for Penny to get to Lothlorien and tell Lindir the truth about her origins. The suspense about where Penny will stay, if she remains in Middle-earth at all, is killing me, but I'm going to enjoy the journey so, so much. You keep writing, and I'll keep reading. Thank you so much for sharing this brilliant fic with everyone.
