I love it! I'd forgotten I'd recently read your story about the battle of 5 armies where Leggy got hurt... loved to see him talk about that! Great story again, sheraiah! :D

This is true friendship, caring for people as they are, seeing them gifted with what they need, even if it offends us in some small way.

Lovely look at my favorite Elf and Dwarf--and soon-to-be King.

My own perception of Legolas was, as he remembered the last wandering of the Ents, was that he was at least an age old, perhaps almost two. But I love seeing him and Gimli making peace.

Ah, bested one of the twins, did he? Excellently written, good use of words.

they just get better and better, sheraiah! I haven't read your bio yet, but I'm sensing a Leoglas theme here... very nice, indeed! :) I like that Bilbo gets to meet/talk to Legolas well before the Fellowship ever comes into being.

another gem! I really like how you characterize Aragorn, Legolas and the twins relationship with each other. Very clever! I was bemused at Legolas sticking out his tongue; not something I would have thought he'd do, but here it works. It's like you saw the Imp he was hiding in PJ's movies and brought him out to play for us. I'm really enjoying these! :)

"Cut him down from another tree"!?!? OMG that's PRICELESS, Sheraiah! LOL!! That has got to be my favorite line in the story!

Wonderful piece, my dear. Love the banter between 'old friends' and the digs... yikes! You made me laugh, thank you! :)

This is lovely. Legolas's desire to give Gimli something he has made for him - even if it is for the vile pipeweed - is such a good indication of their new relationship. And his aunt's acknowledgement that he is grown up and a warrior and that, although she knows it, she still worries is lovely.

I enjoyed watching her go to Gimli to ask him to watch the ellon's back (especially as her little ellon is at least twice Gimli's age), and enjoyed his response both to her and her request.

If he had stayed much longer in Lothlorien he would have definitely ended up an honorary elf.

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW wasn't that just so sweet of Legolas... I can just see him all excited about giving Gimli the pipe.
Nimendis is a lovely aunt....if a little overprotective hehe....though who wouldn't be around that adorable elfling we all love so well ;)
It's nice to see this lighthearted, youthful side to Legolas. Afterall, even elves were young once!!! It's an interesting relationship dynamic, to have Legolas perceived as "younger" than Aragorn and Gimli. So often, Legolas is portayed as millenia older in fanfiction, though I feel the books don't really give that impression of him. Young Legolas is just so much more engaging! Anyhow...I love what you've done here...these little vignettes are amongst my favourites!!
