Agape's Attempts  by Agape4Gondor 6 Review(s)

The elven blood that flows thru Faramir shows itself in his love of trees and birds. The thought of an Ent comforting him is delightful. The distruction of the trees was horrible. Hopefully his tree survived.

A very nice vignette - I've thought of doing a Faramir/Ents meeting, but this piece is better than what I imagined. Very Faramirish and Tolkienish. I hope you'll write a sequel where Faramir meets Quickbeam again after the Ring War; since I'm sure the Steward of Gondor would occasionally travel beyond Gondor...

Author Reply: *blushes* Many many thanks Raksha - I'm so glad you liked it!

It is amazing what one little sentence can do - send you off on adventures! If I do get a chance, I'd love to do the sequel - we'll see. Ents do have a long 'shelf life' - giggles!

Bless you for the review! Most appreciated!

This is absolutely delightful! I hope Faramir meets his friend again. Very clever and original. Thanks

Author Reply: Many thanks! It is amazing what the mind can come up with when dwelling in the fertile fields of Tolkien!

How unique! How wonderful an idea that Quickbeam might have come from Ithilien! Love it! And that Faramir, of all people, had a relationship with the Ent, all unwitting--that is the most wonderful of all.

Love it, Agape.

Author Reply: Thank you so very much! I just love 'finding' new stuff when re-reading the dear profs books! That quote just touched me and I knew someone i loved had to have encountered this 'hasty' Ent....

the waving of branches as a tall tree moved away

What a fascinating image. You come up with the most creative ideas!

What a touching story. I like the idea of Faramir leaning against Quickbeam, talking to him and yes, enjoying him, all without knowing it was an Ent. But how sad that they became sundered... I hope someday Quickbeam returns to Ithilien and Faramir finds him again.

Author Reply: Ah ha! So you want a sequel.... Yikes!

But after reading the Treebeard chapter - this thought just kept me awake. Finally acquiesced to the Muse and wrote it down. Glad it worked!

Thanks you for the kind words!
