I love this story for so many reasons: Its flawless and unadorned style, its spot-on characterizations of Aragorn and the child Boromir, the story which is a lovely dream of a pleasant afternoon, the whistful melancholy of vague memories, and the symmetry of a father's love. I cannot recommend it highly enough. READ IT!

Like all good smut this one has good and convincing emotional underpinnings and plot. Great job, great smut. Wow! Those caves see some action! Wink smiley face

Very interesting. I like the title, I like the original characters, I like the concept. I might have thought Aragorn a little more hardened, though. Just a few annoying mispellings that need to be corrected.

Excellent - rich language that never becomes indulgent; a simple idea that deepens while remaining straightforward; truly a vignette - just a scene, but a beautiful and colorful one.

Fabulous! Excellent! Well done! In nearly every paragraph you'll find a lovely and fresh turn of phrase; Sam's voice and cadences come through clearly throughout; and the author has thoughtfully and insightfully critiqued some of the Professor's own writing on Frodo's behalf. Can't recommend this story highly enough! Loved it so much I even thought the epilogue unnecessary.

Yeah! Excellent ... very economical use of language and good tension! The last sentence is almost a let-down since the story is written so tightly yet applicable to several characters. Loved it!

Lovely story! You deal wonderfully with Merry & Pip's "Post Traumatic Stress." Too many people just imagine the younger hobbits lived happily ever after. You show that they don't but will someday. I think you had their characterizations spot on!

You take a basically standard scenario and make it something quite new and fresh through some excellent turns of phrase: "Eowyn longed to hold it, to hoard it," "tumult of her pulse," "Incursion." I particularly liked how you took Eowyn's strengths and turned them in her frustration into negatives, and turned her limitations into perspective. And then there was the sex ... Yee Hah! Excellent job.
