Oh yay, you can finally post this lovely short here. I'm so glad because this is something new for you, at least that I've seen and you did Fingolfin wonderfully. But even better is the way you portray Anaire's struggle and the pain and horror of what her children had done and the decision they had made to follow Fingolfin. Gawd, I just cannot imagine how horrific it must have been for her and Finarfin's wife, Earwen? Always forget her name. At least they had one another but they must have felt so terribly abandoned and betrayed, even though Finarfin did return. And the fact that he did must have been an even greater cause for grief for Anaire. Uhm...no, this didn't make me think much, LOL. So excellently done, thought provoking, heartwrenching and that last line, geeze Ellie, its absolutely gutting. Clap, Clap, Clap smiley face

Kudos to you for another excellent fic from the female CC's perspective. Something you simply shine at, my dear.

Once again you astound with the perfect blend of stunning imagery and heartbreaking emotion. You may be Duchess of Redpen, but you are definately the Queen of Drabble. No one that I know can outshine you in your ability to create a vivid portrait with a simple, concise turn of phrase. I have been re-reading The Divine Comedy. When I read the beginning of Canto IX, where Alighieri manages to convey in less than 50 words, Virgil's doubt and Dante's ensuing terror so starkly, it reminded me of your astounding ability...the phrase 'powerfully subtle' came to mind. This is another amazing addition to your collection, of which you should well be proud.

Oh Inglor, this was absolutely lovely. The ending gave me chills. What a wonderful bunny this was! Oh, and btw, not a single person knows Shirley Q said it, LOL.

LMAO Triss, that was hilarious. Maybe we should open a Mary Sue Bootcamp on Tol Elannon. Happened to catch this as story of the day and I'm glad I did. You are too funny, girl!

Bravo, my dear Sil. This was wonderful. Weren't these the funnest drabbles evah? I wish I had time to play with more of the phrases. But this was wonderfully done. Good job

Gawd Speesh, he becomes increasingly tragic until the end, you just want to save him somehow. This entire work is sheer brilliance and you have impressed the pants off of me unlike with anything else you've done. Your writing is always superb by I am at a loss for words to describe how sad and frustrated this has left me feeling. This one is going to stay with me for a long time. Wonderfully awesome job, I'm beyond proud to be able to call you my friend, budness.

I think sloth is my favorite. I'll let you know when I read the last one. But what an brilliant way to depict the effects of the ring and the beginnings of regret and longing for a death that will never come. Instead of falling into the realm of the wraiths, he slides into it on a cloud of draining fatigue. Just beautiful, creative genius, Speesh. Reminds me of that old adage, 'The world will not end with a bang, but rather a whimper.' amazing stuff.

hehe, in Greed, you see him really beginning to become the black hearted Witchking and I love the way you are handling the subtle transformation, making the reader long for him to just give all of this up and do the right thing.

That said, OMG! How much do I love your pimp daddy Celeborn and your Galadriel as Mata Hari. It gives them so much more dimension and makes one realize that above all else, Galadriel craved power for a very very long time. Though WK becomes more of a stage dressing in this one, by doing this, you have driven home powerfully, all of his insecurities and hang-ups and stated once more that he would take everything if given the chance. The sexual tension on his part, however, and the ice princess unthawing on hers was very sexy, sensuous stuff.

OMG Okay, that one is freaking tragic. Gad, there is...no flipping words. You've managed to make him cold and calculating, straight up hateful, and now sympathetic. All my favorite parts of the chicken so far. Dayum girl! I want to give him...ewwwwwwww... a hug. FFS Speesh, you're like schizzing my emotions. I feel unstable now. Let's go see what else.

Master of Shadows · Tue Feb 21, 2006 2:47 am

Gad, Speesh, this dude is so...yummy bad. You know how I love teh rotten ones. I was wondering how you would manage to make them all sexy like you wanted. Envy and gluttony gotta be the hardest and you pulled it off seamlessly. This is sooo good. More, going for more.
