Oh my gosh Space, we have GOT to get t-shirts made. FREE FLUFFY! Too funny. Girl, no one does humor like you do. I'm so jealous of your ability to write something as profoundly dark and lovely as the Witch King and, smack in the middle of it, come up with something as wonderfully funny as this. I kinda wanna spank that damn Kamul. he he Twisted Evil smiley face

Oh My Gosh! How did we miss a whole chapter??? Well, the last chapter was great. The suspense just keeps building and building. I, of course, have to wait in line for my turn to read the chapters but I will get to sixteen tonight. We didn't forget you, I'm just a big air head. Oh yay, a new chapter when I was thinking there still wasn't one, I love surprises! Very Happy smiley face

"...We may presume that Glorfindel returned to Middle Earth before the shadow fell on Numenor, and while the Numenorians were welcomed by the Eldar as powerful allies." (The Peoples of Middle Earth', 'Last Writings', 'Glorfindel', pg 382)

"He came to the conclusion that Glorfindel of Gondolin, who fell to his death in combat with a Balrog after the sack of the city, and Glorfindel of Rivendell were one and the same: he was released from Mandos and returned to Middle-earth in the Second Age."

Tsk tsk, one should read all the research before making presumptuous blanket statements regarding what the prof. thought, said, did, not just what we find in Thain's.

Thu, I love this so far. I'm with you on the issue of being allowed to ask, "what if." If not for what if, we'd be living in a rather unsettling, Orwellian world of one person's perspective being the only right perspective. I base this freedom to speculate on words straight from the prof. himself, as opposed to presuming to speak for him.

"Once upon a time I had a mind to make a body of more or less connected legend, ranging from the large and cosmogonic to the level of romantic fairy-story - the larger founded on the lesser in contact with the earth, the lesser drawing splendour from the vast backcloths... I would draw some of the great tales in fullness, and leave many only placed in the scheme, and sketched. The cycles should be linked to a majestic whole, and yet leave scope for other minds and hands, wielding paint and music and drama."

That said:

I love the way you describe her discovery of her body. It reminded me of watching a foal learning to use its limbs for the first time and I thought it was a wonderful analogy. Her being drawn to seek out Thranduil was a very lovely concept considering they would have been bound to each other for eternity, and the fact that he sensed her presence as well made it all the more beautiful. Your mastery of the language is astounding, as usual. Hehe, imagine all the time and trouble Tolk could have saved himself inventing the languages of ME if he had only taken the sage advice that he should not intersperse his fiction with dialogue in strange languages.

Very beautifully done my dear, please continue.

I always feel more emotional about any character from the fellowship, especially the Hobbits and I suppose its because we have such a clear understanding of their profound sorrow and what they have suffered. To see that interwoven into this little one chap fic makes me very happy because I've seen this done without ever mentioning the past and it just doesn't make sense to me. This was what it must have really been like for them, carrying on with life, and living and love in the wake of what they've seen. Very well done Eyborg and btw....smut Twisted Evil smiley face

niiiiice. The only thing that I had any issue with at all is that it would be nice to make the lovin more descriptive and a bit longer. That's something that comes to us all with practice, so grab a Hobbit and practise practise practise. Twisted Evil smiley face

And I do know you too well, Findarato and I can not compete with your need for discovery.

Hehe, she ain't no dummy Findarato! The unknown my big brown ASS. Why didn't he just say, you know, I need some new wimmins? I mean, duh! lol, I knew you were gonna make him with quirks. Verrrrry crafty Mr Inglor. ditto on all the shit Viv said about characterizations. But then, you have that ability to make one wonder about every little nuance. Makes 'skimming' your stories pretty impossible. (Annoying when I want to give an, 'oh yeah, nice story', kind of review) And you started right out of the gate with this one.

hehe, Shining at her like a fox's. Whoopie, this one's gonna be big fun. Stay on your toes boys and girls.

Crossroads of Time · Sun Feb 20, 2005 12:20 pm

Ariella scared the crap outta me girl. Glad Glorfindel got there in time all gimped up as he is. I am really looking forward to seeing those two together and at peace for a while. Breaks my heart what's coming and I hope they get a little happiness for a while. Istadan *sigh* I'm all fan girly over that guy. What a wonderful character you created. I hope we get to see more of him, even though he's gotten his dear john. He's kinda teh hawt! Not many OCs do that for me but he's so very first agey and I love those tortured elves.

Hiya ROUS,

Jes and Emily here for review. A little tardy, we've been a bit busy and barely got to printing chapter 15 just now. Thought we'd pop in to review 14 real quick while we wait. What can I say *sigh* I just love this warm, wonderful story and the brothers Lorien are my faves. Emmy says that Elf and Eldan are heres, lol. She also says, and I quote, "Chapter 14 was a really good chapter, it was very moving and uplifting. I thought that Eldan giving her the overly strong perfume was funny. I love Ela cuz she's a butt kicking female and I hope her and you know who (mom edit here to remove spoiler) get together soon cuz it's just killing me. I hope you keep posting and are having as much fun writing them as I am reading!"

There ya go ROUS, you've been certified, lol. We do really adore this story and the end of chapter 14...well, suffice it to say that we both cheated and read the beginning of 15 while it was printing.

We love ya and your story hon

A Long Year · Mon Feb 14, 2005 12:00 pm

That, my dear little squeaky friend on the boards who thought she'd never get noticed if she stayed quiet enough. (How's that for no commas, Nancy? lol) Was utterly lovely. I know I'm not moody, I was really moved by this. Just beautiful. So, i shall relent and go back over to Diamond in the Storm and *shiver* read Hobbit smut. But if I go over there and start cheering for the Hobbit to get lucky, you and I are having words young lady! *ticks off on fingers. okay, I'm going to hell for the Annatar thing, the Maeglor fetish, the Melkor was THE hottest Vala obsession, the Gimli smut, and now, a hobbit. Sigh*

Haleth, honey that was beautiful. It made me cry. I am such a first age geekmeister. Very well written. Very easy to read yet the language was gorgeous. You have a great beta and what a wonderful little tale. Good for you hon.

You know, I'm sitting here trying to figure out what I was thinking before I started reading this and I can't for the life of me remember. I know it was Beleg that got me reading because I don't read summaries. I started reading and I thought, cool, pwp, Beleg can pull that off. Then I thought, Artanis degradement, okay. Then I got to the end of the first chapter and your insight into how alot of women feel about that particular act really surprised me (cuz you're a dude). But it made the whole thing so powerful. The same exact fic minus a few well chosen lines in the hands of a lesser writer could have been so gratuitous but with several well turned phrases you gave it such impact. I'm kinda stunned. Celeborn? Its already been said. How you took him from cuckhold to the most dignified portrayal of Celeborn I've ever read is amazing. This is the first time I've read anything by you, I don't know why that is, but it won't be the last. One word more or less would have made all the difference. That's talent chico.
