Oh no! Pippin! :-P Oops.

Loved this! Poor Legolas — I suppose until the other Elves arrive he would be the talk of the town. Though it’s definitely not worth cutting his hair … I liked the bit about the history book getting all the info about his house wrong. Wouldn’t surprise me at all, and I’m sure he’ll get that fixed before he leaves for the north.

I often suspect that Aragorn may have felt a bit trapped by the pomp and grandeur now constantly surrounding him, as well. As much as it has been his goal and his triumph, it’s just so different from his former life. I can only imagine it took him a good while to become comfortable with it all. He, unfortunately, can’t just hide from everyone though. :-)

Thx as always for sharing!

Poor Legolas. Still it makes me wonder if Pippin survives long when ladies leave :D. Love His Relentless Majesty Thranduil and the fact he is so respected by Aragorn. Thranduil is a warrior king but on the other hand he holds in high esteem any knowledge and education. Legolas definitely should watch his back as Gimli can help him in getting rid of ladies by cutting his hair while sleeping. Thank you so much for your stories!!!!

Of course well-intentioned Pippin would ruin his hiding place. Poor Legolas. XD This was a great little vignette!

I like how you've decided to bring out some of your ideas and just leave them unfinished to a point. It leaves more freedom to the imagination, but with a start in the right direction by you. I've always enjoyed your stories! :)

Of course I loved this! Legolas and Gimli and Aragorn before Legolas 'returned.' Incredible description here--some of your best. And the dialogue was great too. Loved it.

I'm glad that you did not leave this gem hidden in the depths of your computer -- I thoroughly enjoyed it. The description of Legolas in his black and white livery is simply breath-taking, and I whole-heartedly sympathize with the maidens seeking his acquaintance. Poor Elf.

Loved the interaction with Aragorn, and with Gimli. You blend rich description with equal measures of sorrow and humor, and as always a wonderful understanding of and respect for Tolkien's world. Wonderfully done.

This one's been hiding for about a year now. Hopefully I'll be able to find a few more of these little fragments here and there now that school's almost over. Last class day of the semester! :D

aw...poor legolas with all his fangirls. Lol, Legolas 'trying' to grow a beard would be one for the history books.
