This was awesome! I laughed really hard, especially at the end when Aragorn was pretending to be Gollum.

Oh my stars!
LOL
Legolas is *so* dead once Arwen figures out he's responsible for Aragorn's state. Maybe drugging the Kig wasn't such a good idea after all. Wonderful chapter! Now I can go to bed assured of pleasant dreams. :-)

This was an adorable story! Very well done. You are very descriptive, and write quite well!

This story is truly delightful! I haven't read another story like this. Very ell done!

Certainly, one of the funniest stories I've read! I can just picture
the two of them.

Oh, I'm sure you meant "vial" for the glass bottle of medicine
although equally sure that the Kig would say it was quite vile!

Excellent!

Thank you for sharing it with others.

Author Reply: Hi! Thanks for reviewing Sneezes and Swordfights and especially for catching that little "vile/vial" problem! Hee...I discovered I'd done it again in a later chapter that I had not posted yet so I was glad to see you caught it! That error survived me, my beta reader, and apparently everyone over at ff.net! Good eye, I appreciate it!

Thanks again for reviewing!

wow.
What an emotional rollercoaster, this chapter is. First come the hilarious highjinks of elf and kig, then the feel of sweet love, followed by the bitter knowledge of doom foretold, ending with wisdom for the ages. All flowing effortlessly. A wonderfully written chapter!

A sick human is definitely no match for a peeved elf, even if the human is The Kig. Although apparently a peeved elf is no match for an elderly human healer! (I never would have thought that.)

Off to watch the next Round between elf and Kig. :-)


Author Reply: Hi there!

Just wanted to say thanks so much for reviewing, and I'm so glad you're enjoying the story, because it was an incredible amount of fun to write, but it's even more fun hearing that people found reason to be amused by it!

Hope you enjoy the rest!

Oh! I just noticed the chapter title while starting this review! Too funny.

Anyways.... I guess this is going to turn out to an Alternate Universe story, right? There's no way Legolas is going to let him live until the death Tolkien wrote about after the incident with the medicine. ;-)

Loved the line about the guards recognizing Arwen as the true authority in the room. Can't wait to read more.

Sleep well, Aragorn. ~snicker~

Awww... I don't think it's terribly fair of Arwen to scold both Aragorn AND Legolas. After all, Legolas has every right to be annoyed. He's had to put up with Gondor's absolute worst patient for the last 3 days. I've heard it said that doctors make the worst patients. I guess that's true for healers as well, eh? Love this story & can't wait to read the next chapter. :-)

My poor cat is terrified from the sounds of my laughter. Hysterical!! I love the last line! The vision of Aragorn and Legolas scratching and clawing each other is too funny for words. Wonderful. Cheers!
