LOVE the cockney accent! I can just see it! (or hear it rather). That was really inspired.

That was really lovely Eira! I adore sibling relationships -there can be something so special and honest about them. I really loved the line "I hate it when she does this." It really gave me the sense of how he was feeling -that awkward, squirming feeling that children get when they know something is coming that they won't like. I felt myself squirming with him!
I also can't believe you managed to do that in one sitting! The thought process behind it was really nice and it was really nice that you wrote him from the perspective of what he would eventually become and how he was influenced, not who he was during his reign.

I've still got chills from reading that! Wonderfully done. The details from the wolf's POV were wonderfully gruesome. I really liked the way it moved from the wolf's thoughts to the dialogue between the king and his men.
I don't know much about these characters from the Silmarillion, and I tend to view them as distant, mythical heroes. but you really brought them to life for me.

That was just achingly beautiful! What a lovely partnership you have crafted for Eomer and Lothiriel. It was a joy to read. Thank you.

Oooo! That had a great sense of mystery to it that was maintained throughout which i really liked. I especially like the beginning -Andwise's frustration is palpable and not necessarily something I associate with Hobbits, so that was really nice to read.

That was so tragic and lovely. It made me quite misty eyed at the end. Poor Ohtar! I really feel for him and Náremiri in particular. I especially loved the scene with Isildur and Ohtar in the stables. It was very poignant and outlined their relationship beautifully.

Ania, this was lovely. So tender and poignant. What an elegant lady you have portrayed Gilraen to be, and yet you have still kept an air of the young girl who married the love of her life. A lovely read. Smile smiley face

Oh, what a lovely character you have weaved! He's thoroughly delightful. I especially loved bits about his relationship with Dahlia. She seems like a very interesting lady -and one who could give Gorhendad a run for his money any day. Very nice piece Smile smiley face

I still giggle every time I read this! Laughing smiley face

I once came across a comment that said Luthien was the Tolkien equivalent of a likeable Mary Sue. What makes me particularly laugh about this piece is here we have an idea of a teenage Luthien who is typically and obnoxiously Mary Sue (by our standards at least).

And we don't care if you stuck to the challenge. Because this is fabulous!

Theater of Confusion · Sun Jan 20, 2008 4:44 pm

Oh, that was simply brilliant! I laughed myself silly at the end; almost out of relief that poor Boromir wasn't being attacked in battle (although I suppose he was being attacked in some respects Wink smiley face

).

You have proved once again that your are the queen of the drabble. Nothing is superfluous nor is it lacking in detail. Just lovely vivid imagery and a great twist at the end.

Bounce smiley face
