I absolutely adored this little fic-lite, Lady A! I could just see the pair of them in the room, big brother comforting little sister and telling her he loves what's she's done for him even with all it's flaws. And I can just feel the love between them, making me wish I had a big brother instead of being the oldest child myself. Wink smiley face

I haven't sewn up dupioni silk in my SCA career, but I think velvet rates right up there with it! Which is probably why I don't do my own sewing anymore (besides the fact that anything I sew comes out shorter than I am no matter what I do)! I do have to saw that I didn't mind seeing the little 'slubs' in the shirt/tunic/thing he wore. And this little story just makes it that much easier on the eyes. Wink smiley face

Siblings for Legolas is always debatable, as some believe he had to have brothers and sisters while others believe he was an only child. I sit in the middle of both camps... Wink smiley face

Great story! Thank you for sharing!

You know, whatever you believe or not believe, and if Legolas had siblings or not, this is a delightful, tender little piece. Beautifully done!

This very cute story brought a smile to my face!

I'm actually not sure the fabric of Legolas' shirt is a mistake in the film. Middle-Earth isn't medieval Europe, after all, so I don't think we have to assume that they felt the same way about what makes a good piece of silk. Maybe the movie-Elves appreciate the natural look of the slubs. But that's sort of beside the point, which is that this ficlet is warm and fuzzy, and it could have happened this way!
