Dear Zee ----- oh, I love it. I can just see Théoden having the time of his life teasing dear Gamling ..... and Gamling's unease. I have to re-consider whether I can forgive you making my Éomer such a brat, tough ..... after I have just made him a very serious young man. I probably will, though. Can't wait for the next chapter .......

Love, Frigg

PS: Hope that you are better now ....

"DOOOOMED" I just loved that!!!! I once had the pleasure of working with a retired marine drill sergent with bushy and graying red beard and hair. Sharp tactician and faithful friend. He had a rough, gravely voice and reminds much of your Gamling, who is just so real! Again, so enjoying this. looking forward to getting inside Gamling's head again.

Love it !

You don't get to read about background characters very much so this is refreshing to say the least with much humour also.

I like this different almost comic side to Eomer and Eowyn aswell Smile smiley face

Yay! I missed this. I'm glad to see you are back and in rare form. That bit with the morning star was unexpected...and perfect. I like how Gamling put those "cretans" in their place. I can't wait for the next chapter, considering she is going to see him and tend to his bruise. Very Happy smiley face

This is really turning out to be wonderful! I love his private thoughts. I don't find them confusing at all. They add a very different and original feel to the story. That Fyren is definitely a pain in the ass. Better watch out, though I'm sure Aefre can put him in his place. Two thumps up.....way up!!

Hi, Zee - another great chapter. You had me laughing so hard that everybody was looking curiously at me!! Gamling is definitely falling so hard that he'll never get up (oh, well .... part of him might) .... and Éomer - that brat; Gamling is right, some day it will be his turn .... Fyren? No worries, if Gamling does not "lecture" him, Aefre will!!!!

Love,
Frigg

"I'll ask her next time I have her pinned to the ground" ... He *so* should have said that out loud! lol Gamling's mind is a funny, funny place. I'm a little startled by the characterisation of Legolas ('"Morgoth's Chains!" Legolas had crept up on the other side of Gamling. Aragorn and Gimli were with him. "If I did not abhor the sight of females on the battle field, I would want those two fighting with me."'), but I suspect that it could fit into Mr. Bloom's movie interpretation of the character. "Abéodan, Fyren, Éomer, Wrégan, attend me" ... I love it when Gamling gets all leadershippy. As usual with this story, the narrative is choppy but just on that line between prose and poetry. I like the rhythm of it, would in fact enjoy hearing it performed aloud. It's that kind of piece.
