| I liked Faramir's "counting your carrots" line here. And even if I've read different versions of it, Eomer and Lothy's almost kissing scene here transformed into yet another giggling fangirl. Author Reply: Rereading this, I was thinking I seem to specialize in 'almost kissing scenes'. There seems to be one in nearly all of my stories - and of course also a 'truly kissing scene' ;-) Lia | |

| Well, Dorlas got exactly what he deserved. I think I am more disappointed that Eomer didn't beat him into a bloody pulp than anything. Stupid git of a Gondorian nobleman. Eowyn's meddling is going a little too far, and I think Faramir is right. They might just turn on her next! Keep up the good work. I love this story. Author Reply: I believe it would have been rather unpleasant for Lothiriel to have Dorlas killed in front of her, so I decided to let him live. I don't think he will be bothering any women again for a long time to come. Thank you for your praise! | |

| It was very polite of Lothiriel not to want to give Eowyn the problem of scraping trampled Dorlas of the floor of the stables. Perhaps a touch too polite. And part of me says - what a moment to choose Eowyn! You need to learn to eavesdrop before rushing into situations where you might be interfering with something of importance. But then, on the other hand, this is a situation that requires a bit more Eomer/Lothiriel torment before it comes to any resolution. (By the way. Love the title.) What a dimwit Dorlas is! Unfortunately, I can just see him being spiteful enough to want to get both Eomer and Lothiriel back for what I am sure he will see as an insult rather than a fortunate escape. H'mm. Perhaps Faramir needs a bit more time to develop top Eowyn management skills. But I'm impressed. And I'm sure he's right about the possibility of war. I think it would have been a constant threat over a good few years. But still - go Eowyn. This Eomer/Lothiriel situation needs sorting! Those big nasties looking for women though. Dangerous. Enough to jog a hot-tempered king into unconsidered action. Author Reply: I have to say in Éowyn's defense that she's new to matchmaking. Myself, I think that maybe she should have chosen an easier couple to practise on first before trying her hand with Éomer and Lothiriel. Still, she's doing her best (or is it her worst?) As for what Faramir said, I believe that Éomer was absent from home quite often, helping his friend Aragorn secure their borders. A bit sad for Lothiriel really. | |

| I'm with Eomer. She should have let Nightwing and Firefoot handle the problem; then Eomer would not have needed to get his shirt wet. Eowyn really should butt out, but of course it makes a better story if she doesn't--*grin* And at last we see the Bad Guys again. *ominous music* I look forward to more. Author Reply: I rather enjoyed having Éomer get his shirt wet! I'm sure he can afford another one. And thank you for providing the music to my story. | |

| For a moment I felt sorry for Dorlas, but I got over it quickly. And it was very quick thinking of Lothiriel to save the man's life! I will admit, that like Lothiriel and Eomer, I was a bit disappointed by Eowyn's arrival as well. And the Faramir - Eowyn scene in the bedroom was perfect - just as I had imagined such a conversation. :) Author Reply: I agree your sympathies would be wasted on Dorlas. Like you I was rather disappointed when Éowyn came storming into the stables. Maybe she should listen to her husband a bit more and tread more carefully in the future. Whatever the future brings... | |
