Oh, hello. This ficlet completely blindsided me. I don't know what I was expecting, but it wasn't that. What a beautiful moment, changing nothing else in the dynamics of the characters, implying nothing that wasn't there. I took it to mean that Legolas was a character who loved easily and deeply, though not every love was a romantic one. Some were better, more tender, more respectful. And the slight twist at the end, the trope of the apple (temptation?) was inspired. Very well done. Thank you.

Thank you so much! You are exactly right about my vision of Legolas. Friendship can transcend romantic love and, at times, even be more important. Thanks for your kind words!

Lovely, fabulous and emotionally satisfying. This is a gorgeously crafted fic, it practially sings thanks to your writing talent and ability to weave the layers of this story! Your characteriations are strong, dialogue is spot on, and the end well...what can I say but wow. great job!

I must say I agree with Viv. It was quiet unexpected and nevertheless beyond lovely ...

The end was very moving.

Thank you!

Whoa! I did not see that coming. That was outstanding. The transision was smooth and clean. I am tired of all the stories that have Legolas tempted by every woman he meets. It is refreshing to know that someone is able to portray him in this light. Thank you very much.

I love this one, I really do - tragic and then *wham* the clincher that took my breath away.

Sigh.
