OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHh!

You are the dark Elf incarnate! How could you? How dared you?

But really NEAT!!! I loved the feral grin!

AND that means Boromir did NOT die! Whoo hooo!

Author Reply: *Grin* I think this one made a lot of people choke - it made me blink, and I wrote it!

Maybe Boromir didn't die, but Legolas probably handed them all over to the orcs ...

Now Jay - come back to the Light...come back to the Light! It's almost scary how the mind can try to imagine this story a little further on. I'd rather you didn't...I'll probably read it if you do! :-) I've read a couple of AU's about a dark Legolas and they really freaked me out (but I still read them!) I'll just say - c.r.e.e.p.y. and leave it at that!

Author Reply: I'll try to avoid the dark side! There are just a couple of sneaky plot bunnies tempting me to go further with this idea (I probably won't. I really don't want to see Legolas and Thranduil where this would take me!)

Oh very funny, very funny. (Not!) A universe where Legolas could be evil is not worth living in. :]

Author Reply: Well, I did warn everyone that it was AU. And dark. Fortunately, we live in the universe where he's a good!elf.

But perhaps I should write some more in the other universe ...

Wow. This Dark Elf drabble was so creepy, I had to leave a review.

I gasped actually. Never thought about that little twist with Mirkwood and Gollum. The elves are evil! Run away!

Author Reply: Have I scared you out of lurkerdom? Wonderful!

I'm glad you liked this. Evil!Legolas was great fun to write, because he was so unexpected.

That was creepy, indeed!
It seems you've turned evil: first killing my beloved twins, now Legolas as evil elf, and in "Memories of darkness" you've left poor Legolas in this dark cave for weeks now. I start to get worried about you and what will come next! ;-)

Author Reply: No, no, no - I'm not evil, really! It was just that there was a challenge to write an AU drabble ...

The twins story was AU as well - they're safe and well, really. And that dark cave - I promise to update soon!

Not only is this fantastically well written, it's such an original idea. Very creepy! I think what makes it most unsettling is the line “Surely you did not think Gollum escaped from Mirkwood? I released him” because we can't help pausing for a second and thinking "what if.."!!! Very well done, Jay!

Author Reply: Thank you! I rarely write AUs, but the 'what if' aspect is intriguing. After all, we only have Legolas's account of how Gollum escaped ...

(hope this gets rid of the italics ...)

Author Reply: or this ...

All he needs is a white cat.

Creepy. Very creepy.

Author Reply: A James-Bond-type white cat? You could be right.

I'm delighted with the response this has received, but rather worried by how much I enjoyed writing it.

*shudders* That. Was. Chilling. ~TF

Author Reply: Oh, good. That was the effect I was aiming for!

I now have a frightening urge to take this story further ...

Oooh, what a betrayal. What a shock to the members of the Fellowship!

Author Reply: I thought Legolas the most *unlikely* one to betray the others - so I chose him. It's a little scary how much I enjoyed writing this!

Wow. That was intense. The "cold, feral grin" really got me. And Gollum nuzzling up to Legolas, and Legolas calling him pet... cre-epy! And now you've let loose all sorts of nuzguls!

well done!

Author Reply: Once I'd turned Legolas to the dark side, it seemed obvious that he'd freed Gollum - a perfect excuse to go to Imladris and join the fellowship!
