Whoa!
Nice gap-filler, darling. The feelings of the elves are very nicely depicted- they do not sound like cute mortals, but as true, tolkienesque elves. the relaionships are solid and credible. I commend you in it. May that you gift us with many others!

I have to say, you touched upon a timeframe in Legolas' life that's always intrigued me. What a great read this was and I thought it was a super portrayal of how Legolas and his father would have that personal regard for one another, but also having to face each other on more 'duty' matters as well. Very enjoyable! Smile smiley face

Very good! Very good, indeed!

I especially enjoyed how you were able to merge your story with Tolkien´s. Very impressive!

Wonderful characterization. Loved the interaction between Legolas and Thranduil. Very believable and 'true', I think.
The toasts made by Legolas and Galion were highly amusing! Laughing smiley face I´ve always imagined Legolas older than how you portrayed him, though.

I enjoyed this immensely!

This was well done. You managed to capture the feeling of the elves and the royal relationships.

Please write more.

I'm just immensely happy to see a fic where Thranduil is depicted as a jerk. I generally don't read Legolas-fics because the movie tainted the character for me. *pokes squinty Orlando Bloom with a sharp pointy stick* However, I liked this; it gave Legolas a believeable personality and made him feel a bit more real for me. I especially liked the scenes between him and his father; there remains this air of courtly duty, there, but they manage to remain almost tender toward one another regardless.

Me, I'm just a sucker for father-anything relationships. They please me greatly. I want to see more of your writing, so you must write more. Right now. I command it.
