| I wouldn't want to be the two elven lords head in the morning. Love it. Galathil | |

| Hahahaha! So funny! I also love Celeborn pretending not to be amused 😂! I bet you would like a story called The Conversation on this site which is also about Thranduil and Elrond getting drunk. | |

| Too funny! That was an insightful scene, where Celeborn takes it upon himself to tell both Thranduil & Elrond to behave themselves; after all they *are* both younger, an interesting thought! And it is a novelty to see Thranduil on the receiving end of an order for once -- and obeying without question! Haha, very nice! Author Reply: As Elrond's father in law, and (possibly) distant kin of Thranduil, I think Celeborn is well within his rights to expect respectful behaviour from the elder Elves! | |

| I remember I loved this the first time I read it - I must say it aged well with time. Like the wine Thranduil and Elrond consumed. Only those two could manage to come across as charming when drunk. *fan shakes head in bemusement*. The little cameo by Celeborn was well done. The father figure in him really comes across here - well, the "I-am-a-lot-older-than-you-so-obey-me" part of him at least. The last bit when he hums the tune reminded me that even though he is an old and powerful lord there is a little elfling in him somewhere. But for me, the best line in the whole short was the first: "The two elder Elves, who were often falsely accused of despising each other ...". I guess you have read a lot of Elrond-hates-Thranduil-and-vice-versa fics as well? I am so glad that you redress the balance. Author Reply: There is no real evidence that they hated each other, and a difference of opinion does not necessarily imply hatred, either. They are both charming, drunk or sober:) | |

| Enjoyed the story, especially the idea of Legolas forgetting the words. Nice to see a Thranduil that is not cruel. Nice touch with Celeborn trying to get the twins and Legolas to wager with him! Author Reply: Thranduil is not written as cruel because I do not believe he is, and Celeborn should be allowed to have a bit of fun! | |

| What a lot of happy drunks these elves are! Actually, I was impressed by Elrond's and Thranduil's ability to stop their quarrel once they had settled it in the cellar. Author Reply: Yes, they can actually behave in a mature fashion when required to. | |
