| Ok, I was chuckling along at the image of the Witch King walking Fluffy, giggling at lines like, "...had now given way to irritating baritone squawks," and then I reached: "All the while the Witch King sighed and wondered what would be the best sauce to cook it in." That's as far as I got before cracking up entirely. And then the Witch King tossing it in the sewer and then having to go find it! You are sick. Loved the ending. |

I love reading your fic because of your expertise in word choices and drama, but you are also great at painting FUNNY images, as well! This tongue-in-cheek short story is a real laugh-provoker for the hard-core Tolkien fans who like a good chuckle and a poking of fun at canon!
I liked the use of "empty cowl"--this really conjures the images of the wraiths. Could be used in a serious fic, too.
Fluffy, indeed! Even the Nine had to have their fun!  |

Space, I love your Fell Beast series. Do more! Thanks for lightening up my day a little.
Somehow, I could relate a lot of pet stories (had tons, inclusive of chickens) of my own with this. You can really describe it effectively in a sense that I couldn't help but laugh and remember! 
Can't help but chuckle at the thought of Khamul acting like a sullen child (quite reminisce of me, as a child, and my parents chucked poor Hitam/Blacky, my cat, somewhere and I cried until they brought him back. He died being hit by a car a few weeks later.)

Hehe. I needed a laugh today. I'm amazed that you can switch from dark and evil to humorous so easily. Looking forward to more adventures with Fluffy ... maybe???? Please???? You know, Fell Beast III: The Return of the Fluffy could be a big hit.  |

You show your skill in subtle ways lady. The shear absurdity of the whole thing... what a hoot! Fics like this give the whole genre reason for existence. |

Yay!!!!!! More Fluffy! *giggle* It's a fine line to walk when trying to write funny and not stupid, but you do it so very well! Hope ennui finds you occasionally, as I am truly enjoying this a great deal |

Ah, na vedui!
Been waiting (and waiting...) Sly, goofy, silly with perfect pace and phrasing. I loves whimsy, I does... and this is whimsy at its best. Smacks delightfully of Tolkien's own fits of fancy in his quirkier gems like Roverandum.
Many thanks for continuing, and thanks in advance for the next installment (a plea as subtle as the proverbial ten pound maul...) |

Though I like WK, your portrayal of Khamul is the crusher... Khamul the Pouty Easterling... blahahhaaha.
I really love your dry humor and deadpan delivery. you really are very talented/skilled
Oh yeah and "Smokey, the incontinent warg" had me rolling. |

| You wacky girl!! Very well done; the ordinary, day-to-day plot points in this story (walking the 'pet', flushing it, missing it, having to take care of it yourself ...) were so well dressed up in the Witch King's cloak I never recognized them until each punch line! So fun to read ... |

Oh my gosh Space, we have GOT to get t-shirts made. FREE FLUFFY! Too funny. Girl, no one does humor like you do. I'm so jealous of your ability to write something as profoundly dark and lovely as the Witch King and, smack in the middle of it, come up with something as wonderfully funny as this. I kinda wanna spank that damn Kamul. he he  |
