Totally digging your portrayal of Eomer Very Happy smiley face

He's a charmer, witty, noble, and all kinds of royal. Then, you did a great job of capturing the sorrowful moment of the celebration -- it was very moving (with the songs and the like) and not overdone. I like the humor, and the fondness with which Tindome perceived the Lady Wilflede.

Did I tell you I loved this story? Very Happy smiley face

Oh, and Orophin rocks! LOL!

Great stuff!

(Just want to apologize that my previous review was kind of curt. I was -- still am -- not very well, and I thought I'd let you know I read the chapter, but it couldn't write any longer, coherent comment.)

I was wondering whether you'd go and write about their night together, and here it is! Dayum! First class smut Very Happy smiley face

Thanks!

Ah, this was a fine lesson at diplomacy (and an elvish one, no less!) -- also it was very interesting to have a glimpse at what a stranger (and Eomer was one in this case, even though he had seen Dawn before) might think about Tindome. I almost forgot that she was not from ME, and with that in mind -- that she should still be cautious.

Very nicely done! Thanks Very Happy smiley face

Regarding "elf-struck" creatures, I belong to a sub-species of those: First-Age Sindar-Addict Wink smiley face

Jokes aside, this was a very interesting chapter -- to see Tindome mature, though of course she is still young, learn more about the her relatively new home, see differences and similarities between "here and now" and the one she lived in previously. I like the portrayal of her, have always liked since I started reading the series, and how her character develops.

Once again, well done! Very Happy smiley face

Thanks for the update.

Hey! I just found your fic series only recently and have been reading to catch up. I usually don't go for crossovers, but this one has been excellent. What I've enjoyed the most have been your wonderful understanding and explaining of the elven customs and behaviour and reasoning, and the differences to human cultures (be they our 21st century ones of Dawn/Tindómë or Middle-Earth Rohan, Dúnedain or Gondor) and the difficulties of adapting. It's all very believeable and you've told this story very well. The romance has been lovely to read too. My sympathies to your Orophin character, I'm glad he's feeling better after the last episode. Looking forward to your next chapters. And I hope they never end... I'm not a great reviewer, so I probably won't give feedback on every chapter, but I wanted you to know your story is appreciated just the same.

And they haven't run away from Minas Tirith yet? My, what a determined royal couple Wink smiley face

Still, it seems very believable that the "dragons" would guard the poor queen and her newborn baby. Arwen and Aragorn, raised in Imladris, were accustomed to a whole lot different attitude and standards, and, as you greatly pointed in the chapter, did follow the rules less rigorous than those of the people of Gondor (or simply, common sense). As always, I enjoyed reading Tindome's inner commentary to the outcome.

I'm very much looking forward to seeing how Estel will handle the situation Very Happy smiley face

By half way through the next chapter Tindómë is wishing that *she* could run away from Minas Tirith!

Oh, I can clearly see why she would love to do so Wink smiley face

o_O!

Some sort of palace revolution in Minas Tirith...?! Good then that Tindome was in the right place at the right time, and in a kind of disguise.

What a twist!

If not Faramir, then who'd be more trustworthy? Indeed, if Aragorn could ask for support someone that had no interest in the Ring of Power... That's a priceless ally to have in the case of palace conspiracy. On one hand, I can understand why some of the citizens, the nobility, would like the old times back and the Steward to rule Gondor, because that's what they knew and accepted as their reality. On the other hand, Aragorn was very far from being a tyrant, and he struggled with his "brand new role" too. I guess, it's not easy to be a king when one has little to do with their people.

That performance Rumil and Tindome provided: very educational Wink smiley face

I'm sure they would love to continue elsewhere, in private Very Happy smiley face

Good stuff!

Ch. 19/20. Finally, I got to review the updates! And I have to tell you that I totally forgot about something important -- that Tindome/Dawn is borrowed from another universe. I really did recall that when I read the scene in the garden and Tindome's story as she summed it for Arwen. I think you have developed her character so much and in your own original way that she is not a borrowed character any longer.

Now, it looks like everyone's plotting Wink smiley face

How to uncover the conspirators and cut their plans; how to keep Tindome's identity secret as much as it is required; how to trick the court and avoid being seen; how to let Tindome and Rumil be together alone for a time... Gosh! LOL! But you had a wonderful idea of bringing such an intrigue to the story, and a very plausible one too. Guess that every court has its conspiracy.

I like your Arwen very much too.

The smut was hotttt!
