How lovely. I especially liked Erestor objecting to the tickle torture when Elladan was trying to extract the location of the kitchens from Elrohir.
It's amazing how elflings can turn anything into a game.
They have remarkably tolerant parents, friends and helpers.
If I were Celebrian, I wouldn't be too pleased to discover that the fabric of my new red dress shed dye so badly that it looked like blood! Even if she doesn't plan to wallow in the stream.
It must be quite disconcerting to discover that your present day hero is actually the re-embodied hero of a past age.

To adventurous children, being told that torturing someone isn't a game would be boring. Poor Erestor. Everyone in Imladris knows the twins would never harm one another or anyone else, so they are generally allowed to play unrestrained.
I hope Celebrian's dress doesn't get washed with the whites!

Wonderful new story, Jay! I was hoping for something with the Golden One after you were searching for information about him. The wings are a great touch and your twins are adorable - just the right mixture of being cute, full of adventure and curiosity, and a hint of mischief.

I didn't want to make the twins too sweet and fluffy - real children aren't like that! Glorfindel's main scene is in the next chapter, but you won't have too long to wait - it's nearly done!

Yay! A new tale by you! I love how you write the twins; they're such exuberant children. I read in one of your other fics that that Glorfindel really scared them with his story. Can't wait to find out what happens next!
Author's reply
Thank you! I find it much easier to write the twins now than in Two By Two - I can give them different characters. Glorfindel's story is in the second and final part - and does indeed scare them!

I laughed at the twins wondering whether the two Glorfindels were the same. They certainly are an imaginative pair. I think that's good. They're learning history as a form of play. What they're doing is sort of like writing fanfiction.

They were initially disappointed when they thought it wasn't their Glorfindel - and very surprised later!
They're growing up in a very safe and secure environment, and all the terrible things they learn about are far in the past - so it becomes a game.
