A bit of madness yet there be method in it. It takes a sure hand to mix the sublime with the ridiculous and with such hysterical speed, e.g. dropping us right from the heights of “A few strands of song still preserved within their dead essence” down to “It was such a pain in the neck” in the space of a period; not to mention (though I'm gonna) "Where,” said the Witch King to Khamûl, “did you say you found that eyrie again?” shades of "Young Frankenstein" 
A great little ride. |

| I liked this, particulalry for a first (but, hopefully, not last) effort. I also have always thought this romance given too short shrift in both film and book; your strong emotional palatte gives it a depth I've missed. I found some tense confusion, however, and think, perhaps, your transitions created some reduncancies. I wonder if you couldn't have said more with fewer words. |

| Very sweet; it nearly made me cry but only after I stopped laughing from your opening paragraph. |

Very sweet; it's easy to forget since we see all these Elves ancient and grown that they could have everyday growing family moments. Thank you for reminding us in such a charming way.
2 things clunked for me though: Why would Elladan imagine a tree being evil and I'm pretty sure Elrond isn't actually a king.
Note (1/15) These observations have been addressed. |

Lovely and thoughtful ... you've created a really marvelous little world in this story with truly full-drawn characters, even those that appear briefly, and thoughtful (again) moments - the sound of the sea, Jan-Thys's advice, how the Shire doesn't change ... all these tell me what beautiful restraint you've used to give us the tip of the iceberg, the cream, of what went into this work. At first I was a bit confused but that resolved itself and, I realized, well portrayed Isengar's experience.
Well Done!! |

| Great fun. You achieved a great balance between Tolkien's formal, sort of antiquated language and the contemporary to great comic affect, e.g. "He's kind, he's good looking, he has all of his teeth and they are white, she thought to herself" Hard to do; good job! |

Tee Hee (insert laughing-up-your-sleeve emoticon here); very fun!
And some great moments, e.g. "the morning Sun, who was not shy about sending a glare of her own into Elrond’s face" and the parting shot. Excellent. |
