| This is lovely, Ellie. I am glad you found a way to rework it. I love this: And I was horrified upon the settling of camp to discover that everything still lay as she had originally planned - with my warriors allowing it! Even the very trees had ceased their harsh complaint against her! Nothing like finding his beloved trees also enraptured by her! And I like that he renamed her before he really even liked her. Author Reply: Thank you so very much for your encouragement and assistance in trying a different approach to this fic so I could repost it. The lines you cited are some of my favorites, too! Poor Celeborn is confounded at every turn. And it really is sad when the trees turn against you, especially when you are an elf! Thank you so very much for reading and reviewing! It means a lot to me! | |

| Lovely piece about how the different light illuminated the beauty of Artanis. Even when she was irritating Celeborn, he couldn't take his eyes off her. Poor besotted elf - he didn't stand a chance...and even the trees were on her side! :-) Linda Author Reply: Considering her hair was compared to the radiance of Laurelin with a touch of silver, I figured that it would react differently in different lights. And considering that Celeborn renamed her for her lovely hair, (elves really seem to be attracted to pretty shiny things, don't they?) I figured that would be what he noticed about her the most. She is part Telerin (kin of teh Sinda) so it makes sense that the trees would have noticed her, too. Maybe they like pretty shiny things, too? | |

| Well, I guess I am one of those few that captured a copy of the first version of this story. And thought it a good songfic, at that. The material fitted the tone of the song itself, if not absolutely with the specific lyrics. But, that is the problem with most contemporary songs. In the first chapter, I enjoyed the idea of a rising restlessness being expressed in a restful moment. Celeborn yearning for romance made me smile. This chapter, was a paean to his own discovery that you should be careful what you wished for. Yes, he now has what Daeron had - with all its attending irritations. ;) I look forward to you posting the next stanzas. Author Reply: I found out that song fics aren't allowed here. Oops! So, I deleted it and reworked it. I've had fun writing about Celeborn in this way. I really could envision him wanting what he thought Daeron had. Also, Galadriel really was a little ball of fire, but he was smitten and so was she. Thanks for reading and reviewing! I hope you enjoy the rest of the fic! Ellie | |
