Positively poetic. I love the way you draw on the Aragorn/movieverse speech to frame the experiences remembered/experiences lost (or supressed) in this. The horror of battle/the beserker momentum are evoked so clearly but impressionistically.
Look forward to where you go from here - but have greatly enjoyed getting to this point!

| WHEW! I think I held my breath through that whole chapter, except at the end when my brain was screaming NO! you can't leave it there!!!! Truly captivating. Inspired, even genius, especially having seen the scenes in the movie, it was very real. Clever and effective use of the repeated phrases. Still thinking the mental phrases running through Gamling's mind without punctuation is very effective in conveying the very immediacy of his thoughts. Shall breathe a while and await the next installment. |

Great, Zee - I saw the battle scenes before me; and this was quite a different take. No matter what you write about sex or about battle, you do it so well.
Love, Frigg |

| Awww,, Zee - great chapter. I love the interaction between Éomer and Gamling. Their friendship shines thoroughly through .... and the "brat" did grow up, didn't he? Now he is showing his qualities. Can't wait to see if Gamling really finds that dumpy, mouthy princess for him! Lovely to write in Haleth! You are the Goddess of FanFiction!!!! Love, Frigg |

Ooooooh, Zee - my precioussss! This is absolutely gorgeous!! I bow to thee, oh goddess of the FanFiction! I adore all your little hints .... Faramir's remark and Imrahil's interest .... and your fine description of the shieldmaidens of Rohan. And Éomer - you characterize him well as you do Gamling. I am so looking forward to the continuation.
Love, Frigg |

Hard to believe this just gets better and better. Chapter 18 is absolutely the best thing I have EVER read in fanfiction. Very poignant and realistic. It's there, you can feel yourself in Gamling's boots. The chapters leading into it and following it are amazing as well. You set a scene like no other. I check daily to see if you have updated.
Have you considered giving Bruce a copy of this?  |
