Yes, the elf must have been very, very upset for him to have said that.
It was meant to be a painful chapter to read. :-) Thank you.

(Ai! Will school NEVER end?)

Well, Legolass, this chapter and the next really underscored (for me) the depth of friendship between Legolas and Aragorn, mainly because of the depth of hurt each one felt when Aragorn lost control of that mouth again. (Bless his Kingly heart, buy him a muzzle! LOL) But seriously, as soon as he said it, he wanted the words back, and it just doesn't work that way. I thought the way you had Legolas respond, all cold and controlled - calling him "my lord Elessar" and saying things so formally when he never would usually was extremely effective - I cried for both of them then. Then of course, he makes the vow to redress all wrongs and make them right. Such a sad, sad chapter! Well done!

Hi again Linda - school will end precisely when it means to. :-)

You know, I could feel Legolas' hurt too when I wrote this. Aahh... the sentimental fool in me.

I've been caught up in this story and suddenly realized I should be leaving reviews on each chapter. Sorry! This story just grabbed me and made me keep reading. This chapter -- you can just feel Legolas' anguish as well as Aragorn's. The despair of seeing your child hurt or ill does make you act differently, and I understand where Aragorn is coming from, but poor Legolas!

Hi, Leward - it's really good to hear from readers, and I would love for you to review each chapter. My hits stats tell me there are more than 180 readers following this story now but only 4 or so have stopped to say hi, so it feels good when someone does - thank you!

I'm glad that the anguish reaches out to you, as I want every reader (me included) to empathise with them and the pain they are going through. :-)

Oh my, this last chapter is just a killer. Aragorn needs to make amends with Legolas but his emotions are getting in the way. Wonderful story. Lots of angst.

What a wonderful but so painful chapter. How easily we misunderstand and hurt those we love. Please update soon. Don't keep us hanging on this edge.

I agree, Harrowcat. Thank you so much for responding.

I will update very soon, but I'm afraid there'll be more edges to hang on still. :-)
