Squeeeeeeeeee! You know that this is one of my favorite LOTR moments. And you capture it beautifully in this linked pair of drabbles. Author Reply: Thank you so much,it is one of my favourite moments too,if not THE favourite moment. I'm pleased you like these as I consider you have written the definitive fanfic about these moments. | |

A very lovely pair of drabbles from both men's POV. I love how Aragorn thinks how Faramir recognizes him closely enough to be his own son. Author Reply: I'm pleased you enjoyed these.Tolkien points out how alike the two are,so I thought I'd build on that point. | |

Nice, Linda. A wonderful way to celebrate when they met. The only date I can remember is Aragorn's birthday. The 15th of March slipped from my mind. Again, lovely fic. ~Calenlass Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review.I'm pleased you enjoyed these. I remember 15th March as it was my late Aunt's birthday and is my half birthday,if one can be said to have such a thing ! | |

Walk no more in shadows cast by others. Awake, O Jewel of Gondor, to walk in the sun at my right hand! “What does the king command?” he asks me, thus bringing closer my dreams of marriage and heirs. Love springs between us. Friendship and fealty both, kindled in that instant. Ohhh, how wonderful! These are utterly lovely. Author Reply: Thank you so much ! You have made my day ! | |

I hope guilt didn't cloud Aragorn's last days - he would, I think, have found it hard to forget that his mortality had condemned Arwen to death. While she must have feared what she didn't understand - and could hardly reassure him. Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review. I always feel, given Aragorn's serene death and hope fr what lay ahead that he would be able to overcome any guilt about her leaving the world, but I fear he must have felt guilty about her eparation from her family. | |

So Gilraen is giving birth without Arathorn there! Perhaps she should take it as a sign ... I like her father's point of view! Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review. I would imagine the father being present was pretty rare in those days save fr Elves.I imagine Arathrn is off orc hunting somewhere and will have a nice surprise when he returns. | |

Nearly forty years is a long time to out-live one who has been like a son. I like seeing this from Arwen's POV. Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review.I'm pleased you liked it.I often feel that Aragorn's latter years must have been very hard for him and tinged with sadness. | |

Aragorn is starting to pay the price of his pure Numenorean blood. Luckily, he still has Arwen, and work to do. Sadly effective. Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review. I think every great gift comes with a cost.IT must be very hard to outlive all your friends,and i've known people that happened too,who by the end of their long lives were as eager to return the Gift as Aragorn. | |
