My Dear Bandobras  by Le Rouret 5 Review(s)
Aislynn CrowdaughterReviewed Chapter: 41 on 9/14/2004
"when I questioned Legolas asking why he was brought so low he only shook his head, his eyes downcast, saying he could not disclose his thoughts to me – and would not; his mind is closed to my eye, and it seems to me as though he sits alone in a dark room bereft of all hope; he has shut me out, my Husband, so that I am confounded and know not how to comfort him.....There is more to this, my Husband, than the deaths of two Elves, no matter one was his erstwhile betrothed; but what it might be I am ignorant of it."

Hmmm... seems to me Nardanes unrequited love was not as unrequited as she thought. Or is it remorse that he first - at the start, before he even met Laustaire - thought to feing interest for her so he would be spared another attempt to foist a maid at him? But I got the impression that after he met the brat he was indeed smitten with her for some time! So I rather think it is Nardanes death, and he realized to late that he was more intersted inher than in the brat.

However, I sincerely hope you will not go so far as to kill off Legolas in this! This would, in my view, be a bit of an over-reaction. But I do hope that Bandorbas arrives well, and safe, and *soon*!

I was afraid it was coming to this. And now I'm more worried than ever about Bandy. I would not be surprised if Thranduil ditched Mirkwood and came running to Ithilien to take care of Legolas.

Bodkin- "mood-altering drugs"- bwahahaha!

I am surprised at just how hard Legolas is taking this. Does it have anything to do with Nardane's unrequited love for him, that maybe she might brood on for eternity in the halls of Mandos? Or was it actually unrequited?

Very interesting developments. That little brat sure had a major impact! Looking forward to Thranduil's comments.

Take Note Queen - you cannot make people do what goes against the grain without repercussions.

Poor Legolas sounds in dire straits. Not only does he need Bandobras - he needs a course of mood-altering drugs. And more children to play with. And it sounds as if he needs his adar, too.

Now this is getting serious. Surely, surely Legolas won't fade over this, however he may blame himself. He's stronger than that. Oh, but I will be glad when Bandobras arrives.
