I've read this fic before and i loved it from start to finish. Sorry i didn't review then. I read it in the week before i went on holiday so what i'd already read was etched in my mind. The day after i came home, i got on the PC and read more. It's a really nice story. This is probably one of the few fics on this site that helped me fall in love with the elves - Em

I am really enjoying this story! You're doing a great job with it, and I look forward to more. There are only a few very minor mistakes that are easily overlooked, but in no way do they take away from the story. Thanks!

Author Reply: I'm pleased that you're enjoying the story. A little comment of my own, though, if I may. When you mention that there are mistakes, it is much more helpful if you actually say what they are. I make absolutely no claims to be a Tolkein expert and in fact this is the first story I've written in...well, forever. So I take helpful, constructive comments quite well and in fact have made changes to this posting of the story based on previous comments from other reviewers. At any rate, I do appreciate the review and hope you like the rest of the story.

Well, this is a brand new story to me. The other site aggravates me so much trying to find anything, that I avoid it.

This is an interesting premise to a story. For once the twins are being treated without the "jolly twins wrecking havoc on elvendom" motif. I get so tired of that. This is serious stuff for the pair who had a tragic life and spent most of it avenging their mother, not setting off stink bombs.

Loved when you had Elladan go off to deal with his pain alone and then come back to his younger brothers once again strong.

Look forward to an update.



Author Reply: Hey a new reader! That's great! I was hoping that by posting on this site I'd reach some new folks. No...not a lot of pranks in this one. None, in fact. I like to think that the twins have a playful side, but you won't really see that in this story. I want to focus more on the family's reactions to a difficult situation. Anyway, thanks so much for the review and welcome!

I loved this chapter SO much!! I am dying of anxiety waiting for the next new chapter, lol. I really hope it's up soon. LOL. I want to see how you deal with Elrohir and Aragorn, and also the mess between Elrohir and Elladan, and Elrohir and Elrond. UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE, lmao.

Author Reply: I am TRYING to get the next chapter written...really I am! I have the first section, one of the middle sections, and the end written. Now I just have to fill in two other scenes as well as all of the pieces that link them together. Doesn't sound like much, but I really do try to write a story that flows. Don't always succeed as much as I'd like, but I do want to write a good story for you all. Thanks for reviewing and feeding the little spider that lives in my 'inbox!' It gets hungry without reviews!
