Elrohir hugging Elrond! How sweet! I actually had tears in my eyes reading the last part! So what happens next? Can't wait to find out!

Author Reply: Here you go...I'm posting another chapter tonight. The "Ada" chapter has been one of my favorites, both to write and overall, so I really appreciate hearing that others liked it as well. Enjoy the next chapter and thanks for the review!

Ah, yes, just as I feared! I am a veritable mush puddle. Where is my lace handkerchief?

Wonderful job at describing the whole range of ambivalence and conflicting emotions that Elrond faced. I had somewhat feared a too "simplistic" reunion, but you have neatly avoided that pitfall. Excellent.

So, when might you be updating this fine story? Do you feel the pressure of your fans' demands? Good. We have achieved our goal!

Author Reply: Ah my friend, a new chapter is being posted tonight. And actually, I do feel pressure to write, but it is a good pressure. I enjoy finally hitting that 'send' button and then eagerly waiting to see what folks think. I'm really glad you liked the reunion scene with Elrond. I had originally intended it to be much shorter, but like you mentioned, it needed more than a simple, 'yep, they're back together now.' Thanks so much for the review and kind words!

One can never have too many reviews, so although I reviewed this when you posted it on ff.net, I'll review again. This is one of my favourite of your chapters (the best is the most recent one!), and I love the father/son reunion.

I loved Elrond's despair as he wondered what had happened to his 'beautiful son', and his delight as he finally gave in to instinct and held Elrohir. Great work.

Author Reply: I absolutely agree...there is no such thing as too many reviews, so I thank you for this one! Speaking of reviews, you liked the new chapter? Sniff...that's the only one since you started reviewing that you hadn't reviewed, so I did wonder if you liked it. (Okay, I'm pathetically insecure about my writing and need feedback, I admit it!) Anyway, thanks for this review!
