Oh my gosh, this is a good fanfic! Grrr.. now I remember why I don't usually read WIP... I'm too darn impatient to find out what happens next! But still, this is really good!

I liked the analogies that you threw in there... the elanor flower, the archery lessons. Nice job! And Rumil cracks me up! I hope he finds something (or someone) to do... harhar.

To make this fic even more outstanding, I'd like to see some more heat between Haldir and Elanor. Nothing major, just some tension and/or fight to rile things up a little. Since they're a couple now, it would be good to see how they deal with a big fat fight! Now that they've made love, they don't have that unresolved sexual tension anymore. Ooh! Maybe it could do with their whole future! You wrote that he cared for her but wasn't sure if he was the one, since she was young, and he was her first lover, blah blah... you know what you said. Anyway, they could argue about that! She wants to be with him, he wants her to have more life experiences... I don't know. I'm just spewing ideas. You're probably writing something better!

And is Lurien going to go ballistic on them? Or maybe Ture? (Did I spell that right?) She could be frustrated with the whole waiting thing, and take matters into her own hands! I do suggest to wrap up the Lurien mini-plot pretty soon. Unless he's mentally unstable (which he could be), I don't really know where it's going.

I hope this doesn't sound harsh! I really really love this fic! They're funny and real and believable... after all, everything I said are just suggestions. Feel free to ignore completely. I'm the reader, not the writer.

Hurry hurry!

Hello there, I'm new here and I just had to review. I read this story on another site but could not review so I'm glad this is here. I absolutely LOVE this story. You are an amazing author Very Happy smiley face You go into so much detail (especially in chapter 21 Wink smiley face ) I was blushing just from reading it. WOW, you are so good. I hope you plan to update.

I think the getaway that Haldir and Elanor is so romantic. I feel so bad for Rumil. It's obvious that Nerwen does love him, or she wouldn't have cried after leaving his talan. She just doesn't want to admit it, but that might not be such a good idea. It looks like Rumil is giving up. I think Orophin is wrong for not wanting to interfere. I think he needs to help out a bit if Nerwen and Rumil are to get together.

Oh, this story is great. It's so sweet and funny! I'm still laughing about the way Rumil woke up:

“Now you are going to pretend you did not know it was me?” she said scathingly. “Do you truly expect me to believe you would fondle the Vala Elbereth’s backside?”

Hee. Oh, and Haldir's Hand-Warming technique gave me the giggles too. I love this story! I think I shall make a pamphlet or something for that one. I'll post it to the Yahoo group when it's done. Thanks for another entertaining chapter.

I just wanted to say that I just finished reading chapter 22. Perhaps I am one of the people that are still sticking around, but let me stress that it is for a good reason. Your take on the whole situation is refreshingly different, and a pleasure to read. I do very much hope that Nerwen and Rúmil will work out their difficulties. Thanks again for not abandoning this story, and if you write it, I'll read it!

loved it!
though I was disappointed at the lack of Lurien. And what's going to happen with the archery lessons? And Rumil and Nerwen...sigh...

more...please? now?

I love the way that you've presented the subtle changes in Haldir's character in comparison to how he 'used' to be, it gives a great portrayal of the affect Elanor has on him. Lovely chapter, am still reading and watching this story closely, the Nerwen and Rumil situation is as equally frustrating as the Haldir and Elanor one used to be! Very well written as always.

I have been reading and following this story from 3 different sites since last year. This is the one that insipired me to write LOTR fanfic... It doesn't get any better than this! In my own humble opinion...

Oh please update soon, though I will be sad to see it end....

I have been following this story as well and should have reviewed ages ago. It is a wonderful tale. This last chapter that shows Haldir as a gentle lover and fierce protector is perfect.

I have loved this story from Day 1, and I don't mind waiting between chapters, because it's so worth it. Haldir and Elanor have definitely grown closer. I think that Lurien definitely needs to give up on this rivalry, or he may lose Tarwe. If he loves her like he does, then he should make the effort to change. I wonder if Lord Elrond is there to take Elanor back. I hope she stays. We did manage to see a bit of the old Haldir for a moment, when he thought of how this started as a punishment for Elanor.
