Eww, that Fenwick! His pride has gotten the better of his judgement this evening, hasn't it? So has Eomer's temper, but I think his reaction was justified. How tasteless was that last comment by Fenwick? I almost hope there were witnesses besides Eomer, and I also almost hope Fenwick left some bruises on her wrist. How would he explain that to her father?
She lost a good opportunity to talk to her father when he called her aside, but he's clearly aware something fishy is going on, and hopefully he will have that word with her"in private". I desperately hope she levels with him completely.
I love the growing list of Eomer and Ani supporters, with Amrothos and Cam looking to side with them, as well as Legolas and company. Love the teasing wager between Legolas and Gimli. Eomer was quite a good sport! Faramir doesn't seem too concerned and in fact seems supportive of Eomer's interest. Loved the quips about Eomer watching out for Legolas' behavior with Ani and Gimli's observation that there are places to go if one likes to be tied up! I can only guess the tidbit about her being tied up will be making the rounds on the rumor mill by the next day. Well, along with the brawl involving the King of Rohan. Let the scandal begin!
Is Gandalf helping things along behind the scenes as well? He was awfully helpful there near the end.
I can't wait to see what happens next! There's likely to be some big shockwaves after tonight's events! I hope they will be more damaging to Fenwick than to Eomer!
Cheers,
Amy B.  |

Ha! I love that Fenwick got their wine splashed all over him! Serves him right, and got rid of the little twit in the meantime so they could have a talk!
Go, Eomer, go! He has to figure out a way to get Ani out of this horrible betrothal! I find it odd that there is _no_ way to back out of a betrothal. An engagement is a promise, sure, and agreements are made, but until the actual ceremony and vows are made by the two involved, certainly there is some way out of it? I'm sure part of the issue is Fenwick's family and the social repercussions of backing out of a high profile betrothal, but I say: Let's have a scandal! I'm sure Imrahil's family can weather the backlash. King of Rohan is a waaay better catch than what's-his-face and his harbor resources, I'm sure they'd be forgiven by society at large for changing their minds.
Oo, Ani is way overdue for a straight conversation with her father. He at least has to know how miserable she'll be if she goes through with this engagement, especially as she's so deeply in love with Eomer. i think she's spared him a lot of her feelings so far. He thinks she's being childish, and has no idea how very unhappy she is with his choice already. She needs to get her brother in on this onee, too; he's talked to Fenwick and is clear he doesn't care a fig for his sister! Didn't he say he'd try to help her out?
Loved flirty, romantic Eomer, and Anihuil's observation that he's naturally graceful and aware of his surroundings. That's what makes a truly good dancer a good dancer- the awareness of the space around them- as well as a good warrior! That was a nice touch!
I'm glad they cleared up a lot of the mixup and miscommunication that has plagued them until now. Also, Eomer is clear she's desperately unhappy about this engagement. I can only hope he'll find a way to rescue her!
Great stuff! I can't wait to see what happens next!
Cheers,
Amy B. |

Okay, finally!
Now will at least one of them move to clear up the mystery and implore Imrahil to drop this silly engagement? He couldn't possibly let Ani marry that awful Fenwick with the King of Rohan in the picture! Please, don't let Ani/Lothiriel stay silent on this one!
I loved all the brother/sister interplay with Eomer and Eowyn! Loved seeing her as his wardrobe consultant- very typical sisterly stuff! The cameo appearance by Gimli was funny, too! I hope to see more of him and possibly more of the Fellowship.
I hope Fenwick's high-handed behavior in the stables with Emoer comes back to haunt him- he deserves some taking down, and Eomer is just the man to do it- maybe with some help from Ani!
Please please please don't make us wait too long to find out what happens next, it's getting more gripping with each chapter!
Cheers,
Amy B.  |

Man, that Fenwick really _is_ annoying, isn't he?
Aaargh! You're trying to torture us, aren't you? Hurry, Eomer, hurry to the wedding before that icky Fenwick gets his paws on Ani again! Is Imrahil really that tuned out that he thinks this man is "charming"? I hope when Eomer shows up, he has an excuse to pull the "manly man" thing on Fenwick. There's not a chance that Fenwick will escape a _very_ unflattering comparison to Eomer once they're in a room together! I can't wait to see it!
I can't believe Faramir didn't slip up once and call Lothiriel "Ani" in front of Eowyn! That would have solved a lot of problems right there! I thought it was incredibly touching that Ani was moved to tears to know Eomer is alive!
When Eomer said he was probably not attending the wedding, I got a little concerned there! I really hope he hurries to Minas Tirith. The suspense is killing me! Please don't make us wait too long to get Eomer and Ani together again!
Cheers,
Amy B(eth)  |
