An excellent drabble, Bink. It really does what I think a drabble should do: illustrate the turn of a moment. You pack a lot in here, without making it feel packed at all. The use of 'her hip' e.g. as the doorway to the whole night's experience is excellent.
I am so glad this challenge inspired you to this. Thanks. |

| Excellent, Viv, I did not understand the import of the first line until the end, and then so easily since you had paved the road in between so smoothly. Imrahil's voice comes naturally and easily of the page with economy and purpose. And I appreciated how his politician's heart could feel and plan simultaneously. |

| This was a really interesting idea, Sil, and I like the way you depicted hope and despair with equal conviction, just as your narrator must experience them. I miss your usual easy clarity, however, finding this writing a little fuzzy. |

| Good job, LBJ. I think one of the hardest things in writing is returning to the scene of the crime, as it were, and you bring us back here seamlessly. Fun! |

| How right you are LOL. I am re-writing my first ever fic - the chapters I added are fine but trying to update the original ones is not easy. Anyway, enough blathering - thanks for the review.Glad you enjoyed.LBJ |

| What I found most touching about this brief vignette was your portrait of a charater who felt ignored by fortune, whose wishes no matter how idle, where no longer even being heard. Poignant. |

| Thank you, Nancy. I'm so glad that I managed to create a touch of abandonment. Thank you very much for reviewing |

| Very interesting, Elea. I thought at first I wanted to know who your character was, specifically, but then I was more satisfied that he was unnamed, and so more representative. This story takes on wonderful scope, while remaining tighly focussed, encompassing all warriors in the embodiment only of those who mourned, and those who did not. Well done. |

| Thank you so much, Nancy. I really appreciate your feedback. I tried in the beginning to attach the captain to a "real" character but canon went against the scene in my head. In the end, it felt right and proper to keep his identity as unknown. |

| Ha Ha! This is so enjoyable, LBJ, and not just for the ending twist that happily surprised me. I, not usually an elf appreciator, really enjoyed the banter between E & E, their presumption and how much between them was unspoken as well as spoken. Your characterizations are terrific and engaging, and all done with action not exposition. Most enjoyable. |
