This is the best story on openscrolls. I also love your sequel "Okay, Now Panic" as well. These stories give us a REAL perspective of what would happen in Middle Earth. I like the fact that Penny is faced with everyday situations instead of having evetything catered to her. Great job and keep up the good work!! Now I must go to bed and have some erotic dreams about sexy male Elves Twisted Evil smiley face

To be perfectly honest with you, I had seen this story a few times- in searches and in other authors favorites lists and such- but never brought myself to read it- until a few days ago.
I must say I do love it. Loved the realism (though thats what you were striving for to begin with). I actually cried on that last chapter, with the whole Halbarad leaving and never being seen alive again. And I always love stories that can make me feel emotions like that Wink smiley face

I must say I will start reading the sequel really soon, probably later today.
Though I have to say to you (not trying to be a flame, so please don't take it as such) that it was sometimes hard to follow. Ahh- I shouldn't say hard, it wasn't hard to follow but it wasn't as easy as breathing. Anywho- POV's changed and tenses also. I do that in my stories too so I'm not trying to be a hypocrit, but sometimes it got confusing. For example sometimes you'd have a paragraph or two that would follow Halbarad and then suddenly it would shift into something he had done the day before or earlier that day, and then just as suddenly shift back to the present, and then the POV would shift to Penny; although this didn't make the story any less enjoyable.
Anyway, thats what I noticed and nice job on an amazing story.

This story was utterly captivating and beautiful, and I couldn't stop reading it even when I had homework for university to complete. I am moving right on to the next story.

Quite frankly, you baffled me with this story, and I have recommended it to friends who enjoy Tolkien's works. It is quite believable, and I enjoyed reading about Penny, as well. She is a very likable woman, and I enjoyed exploring Middle Earth through her eyes.

I am under the opinion that every choice you made in regards to her was quite believable and well made. Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful piece of artwork with us common mortals XD

I can't begin to express how much I enjoyed reading this. Thank you, once more.

Also - I found the naked Lindir situation quite hilarious. And I also attempted to picture Erestor with a blush. It was all rather funny ^____^

I've read this fic five or six times now and I still cry like a baby. Don't Panic and your sequel are two of my favorite fics... just... thank you for writing them.

I have read this story several times and have to say that I love it. It's made me laugh and cry so many times through it. brilliantly written and so enjoyable. Love how Penny reacts to everything.
