Larner · 21 December 2007 · Chapter 61: Just Deserts (Pippin, Merry, Aragorn, Éomer)

Just desserts indeed! (although there ought to be two ss's) Yes, I wish Tolkien had done this scene for us!

Larner · 18 November 2007 · Chapter 81: Journeys to Harad (Aragorn, Arwen, OC)

Ah--quite the contrast here between two journeys and the preparations for them--although the second time just having bath bed, and lady appear enough. Delightful, Gwynned!

Larner · 7 November 2007 · Chapter 13: Garden Secrets (Faramir, Éowyn)

Ah, she might now be given to healing and growing, but she still maintains her skills as shieldmaiden! Yes, our Eowyn, and our Ranger from Ithilien, loving every facet of her personality!

Larner · 7 November 2007 · Chapter 69: Beginnings (Eowyn, OCs, Faramir)

Ah, a wonderful gift to share. The healers of Gondor don't know EVERYTHING, obviously! Lovely!

Larner · 12 October 2007 · Chapter 67: Aftershocks (Elendil, OC)

Ah, a wonderful tale of Elendil's arrival in what would be Gondor.

phyloxena · 16 May 2007 · Chapter 56: Moving the Pieces (Aragorn, Gandalf)

I wonder, who won that game. Since it's almost official that Faramir beats Aragorn in chess, probably, Gandalf won. Sigh.

phyloxena · 16 May 2007 · Chapter 3: It’s just a phase: Thirty is still fairly young. (Elladan, Elrohir, Valandil)

That was hilarious. Actually, I'm rereading your stories after Raksha's link to Fever Dreams, and they are all brilliant. And so much in character, every one.

RS · 18 August 2006 · Chapter 63: Long was the Making (Arwen, Aragorn)

Wow! I can't believe I missed this. Such a tender moment. Arwen kissing Aragorn's hands stood out for me. Don't know why but it was very powerful.

Gandalfs apprentice · 15 August 2006 · Chapter 84: Trust (Aragorn, Halbarad)

Just wanted to let you know how very much I like this little story. I had never thought about it before, but of course that's how it had to have been! Great job.

grumpy · 9 August 2006 · Chapter 84: Trust (Aragorn, Halbarad)

Noww that would be a terrible thing for Halbarad to have to do. I liked that part abouthim, thinking when they were fourteen.

grumpy · 9 August 2006 · Chapter 81: Journeys to Harad (Aragorn, Arwen, OC)

Amazing how much stuff a king needs to travel, compared with a rangers geer. But if I was going on a road trip, I would want the tub too.

Bodkin · 8 August 2006 · Chapter 69: Beginnings (Eowyn, OCs, Faramir)

Developing affection over better tasting willow-bark infusions. What better way for love to grow? I like the healer's conviction that Gondor did things better. And Eowyn's proof that Gondor didn't. Not always.

Bodkin · 8 August 2006 · Chapter 66: More Than Memory (Celeborn)

The time had to come when the pull of the familiar was less strong than the need to be reunited with his wife. But that doesn't stop it being heart-rending. Poor Celeborn, having to watch the fading of the elves' bond with the lands east of the sea.

Bodkin · 8 August 2006 · Chapter 65: Curse That Númenorean Heritage (Eomer, Faramir)

Poor Eomer! Such an insult to his manhood!

Bodkin · 8 August 2006 · Chapter 81: Journeys to Harad (Aragorn, Arwen, OC)

Now that's the way to travel light! With everybody else travelling heavy. Aragorn will not miss out on any comforts here!

Linda Hoyland · 7 August 2006 · Chapter 84: Trust (Aragorn, Halbarad)

A chilling twist in the tail !

Linda Hoyland · 7 August 2006 · Chapter 10: Dragon of the North (Denethor, Ecthelion, Aragorn)

I enjoyed this glimpse of the beginning of the rivalry.

Linda Hoyland · 7 August 2006 · Chapter 6: Isildur’s Inheritance (Aragorn, Frodo)

Chilling and interesting.Aragorn shows his quality by resisting.

Linda Hoyland · 7 August 2006 · Chapter 1: “Aragorn himself waits for a sign” (Aragorn, Gandalf)

Poor Aragorn, those weeks must have been nervewracking.

Linda Hoyland · 7 August 2006 · Chapter 12: Fireside Reflections (Faramir, Éomer)

Wise Faramir !It is good he no longer has to ride to war.

Raksha The Demon · 21 June 2006 · Chapter 18: Promises (Faramir)

A wonderful comment on the evil of destruction for its own sake; and another WFM - Wonderful Faramir Moment - as his heart speaks, as always, for hope, and preservation, and green and growing things.

Eleny · 18 February 2006 · Chapter 46: Practice Makes Perfect (Boromir)

Now this is a gem! :) I rarely smile about Boromir, he is mostly shown as a tragic figure, but this "piece of music" surely comes together with him! Splendid you gave him back what he deserved - a touch of artist in a warrior! :) PS. I may imagine how weird elven verses might seem to him.

Eleny · 18 February 2006 · Chapter 19: Second Watch (Pippin, Boromir)

A sadly beautiful scene... I guess I see them in front of my eyes, as well as their longing dreas and memories of distant home... piercingly charming and sad... especially for Boromir. Thank you!

shirebound · 2 December 2005 · Chapter 61: Just Deserts (Pippin, Merry, Aragorn, Éomer)

Lovely! I can never get enough of that "missing scene" from the book. :D

Bodkin · 1 December 2005 · Chapter 57: First Autumn (Legolas, Thranduil)

Sweet. Seriously sweet. Little chubby-legged Legolas and autumn leaves - and an all-powerful Ada who has to admit to limitations. So gorgeous.
