| This is such a wonderful scene in the movies--the kind that gives me shivers up my spine. Love Aragorn's stunned-then-overjoyed reaction, and the way you captured it here. <3 One of the happiest moments evar. \o/ Author Reply: Thanks! Yes, the movie did a terrific job with that scene, didn't it. I love the book version all the more because of the nice long and warm conversation the Three Hunters then have with Gandalf. A terrific birthday gift for Aragorn, either version! | |

| I enjoyed this very much! I hadn't even made the connection that they met Gandalf on Aragorn's birthday until now...what a wonderful present, though! You've captured Aragorn's emotions nicely. Author Reply: Thank you, Minerva! I'm glad you liked this, and glad I was able to connect two events for you. I hadn't realized the connection myself, either, until I saw it on the tORN website. Glad you liked Aragorn's feelings here. | |

| What better birthday present could Aragorn have asked than the return of Gandalf, and at such a crucial and desperate time too. In a few words, you've shown that beautifully. Author Reply: Thanks, Estelcontar! I'm glad you liked this little short thing... definitely was a timely gift, in many ways, wasn't it? | |

| I think that it's a wonderful trivia, which I have always loved, that this joyful meeting happened on Aragorn's birthday. I do not think he could have had a better birthday present than the return of such dear a friend and mentor. Thank you so much for writing this. Author Reply: Thank you, Vilwarin! I'm glad you liked this, and yes, it is a nice bit of trivia, isn't it? (Next time I watch that scene in the movies, I'll no doubt start humming "Happy Birthday to You"...) I agree in that it had to have been one of the best gifts ever for Aragorn. Thanks again for the review! | |

| I don't think Aragorn, in this time and place, could have had a better birthday present than this. Very well shown. Author Reply: Thank you, inzilbeth! I'm glad you liked this... yes, it definitely lifted that birthday up above the run-of-the-mill ones, didn't it? Not many of us get a dearly departed friend back to life as a present! Thanks again for the review! | |

| Very beautifully written. I like the mystery of what is going on until the end. At first, I relly wasn't sure who it was about. I really love that you wrote about this moment. As I said before, it's one of my very favorite moments in LOTR, hands down. So glad you wrote this, and you did an amazing job of it too. Author Reply: Thank you, Roisin! I'm glad you liked this, and glad you found it a bit of a riddle until the end. I'm also glad I captured one of your favorite moments... it's definitely one of the joyful moments during a time when very little was going right. Thanks for the review! | |

| What a wonderful birthday indeed! This is beautifully written. Author Reply: Thank you, Shirebound. I hadn't realized until I saw the notice on tORN that they met Gandalf on Aragorn's birthday. Probably one of the best presents he ever received. :) Glad you liked it, and thanks for the review! | |
