I don't want to use a word that might trivialize this, but this 'Snowfall' is absolutely adorable! It is the most telling and true evocation of the unusual friendship between Legolas and Gimli. The affection for each other is clearly shown in their playful sniping and the reluctance of either to be wrong. Also nice to see Gimli one-up Legolas once in a while. Mr.-Walks-on-Snow doesn't have all the answers! The mental imagery is also very finely expressed, especially describing Legolas as a polar bear! Very Happy smiley face

Very, very well done!

Cheers,

How wonderfully you have pictured this "fighting" pair. Nice job on Gimli predicting Legolas' little trick and also, great grumbling!

This story is a gem. It depicts Legolas and Gimli as friends whose knowledge and abilities compliment each other, like the TV adaptation of Sherlock Holmes that stared Jeremy Brett. There's real affection beneath their rivalry.

Gimli had the right attitude about snow. He could be a Canadian.

Rules were made to challenge imaginative people. You incorporated the needed elements in a creative, descriptive way rather than literally.

Very nice. I loved the humor and rivalry between the two of them. Without the stress of the Ring, they found they could be friends. Thank you.

"What happened to 'oft hope is born when all is forlorn'?”

“It was snowed on,” mumbled Legolas,

^^^^^That was priceless. Great little ficlet and Gimli was wonderful! *grins*
