Temporary Insanity  by Joee 5 Review(s)
The Person Who Shall Remain NamelessReviewed Chapter: 1 on 4/9/2005
Ahaha! This was hilarious! Mainly because it's so true! When I spent the night recently at a friend's house, I couldn't help but pick up those quirks and annoyances in the dark of the night, as I tried to sleep. Oy vey. Drove me nutty, and my thoughts were a lot like Legolas' . . . which is slightly scary. Anyway, this was funny and I really enjoyed it! Keep up the great work!

Hi
This was great, even seeing Legolas a bit OC was fine because it was so funny.
I was trying to giggle quietly but when it got to this bit -

It’s back! How can it be back? We are past the whistling stage, we can’t go back now!

My sister was in the room and she just looked at me and said 'Why are you snorting like that, have you got something up your nose?' Which just made me laugh even harder.
Anyways, I loved it.

Author Reply: Lol, it's funny that your sister would say that. I'm glad you liked the story, thanks for the review.

"Oh, mixing it up a little there, are we? As if the tapping noise wasn’t bad enough, now I must listen to him making disgusting sniffling/snorting noises as well. Looks like the bacteria colony has begun its job of infecting him, or maybe the object in his noise has come loose and he’s trying to put it back into place in a more dignified manner than by shoving his finger up there."

That paragraph had me laughing out loud. This story was ingenious! Temporary insanity, indeed. I loved how you had Legolas slowly become more sarcastic and annoyed. The character was (though ooc) very well-written and infinitely funny. Wonderful job!

Author Reply: Thank you! Unfortunately, this story was inspired by real life, well not the actual strangling part, but the annoying, disgusting habits and urge to kill part.

I did realise that legolas was ooc, but I only hope that the readers can forgive me on this one, as the story didn't see to work unless I went all out.

Thanks for the review =)

What a hoot! I was grinning all the way through this. I wonder if Legolas ever had his revenge...

:D



Author Reply: I'm glad you liked it. Hmmm, Legolas getting revenge, that's an interesting thought, one that seems to be taking the form of a rabid plot bunny...

Very amusing, Joee! :-D I feel a bit bad for Legolas though. Poor elfling.

Author Reply: Thanks for the review (again!), Karri. I also feel sorry for Legolas. As someone who has been in a situation like this before, I can definately relate to the feeling of wanting to strangle the person. Poor elfling indeed.
