Nice ending! Loved the bit with "kill the singing elf". Too funny!
Author's reply
Thanks! :D I like the "kill the singing elf" too. LOL!! And it's even funnier that Aragorn actually obeyed the order! Hahaha!!
BlueEyedElf · 9 November 2005 · Chapter 28: Road to Recovery
LOL! Poor Elladan. That was really funny. Kill the singing elf indeed. Poor Legolas. I'm glad he is finally feeling better. At the end when he finally fell asleep, I wanted to give Elrohir a hug too. That was so very thoughtful of him. I really enjoyed this story and will be watching for your next one.

Thank you for sticking with the story until the end :D Yes, I thought "kill the singing elf" was funny too. LOL!! And it's even funnier when Aragorn took it literaly. Hahaha!!! I'm trying to imagine the look on Elladan's face when the arrow came whizzing past him. *eg*
Aelinmir · 8 November 2005 · Chapter 28: Road to Recovery
That was a surprising twist. I never would have thought the arrow was from Estel.
Author's reply
I have no idea what made me think of that but it seems to be a good prank. LOL!! Poor Elladan had the life scared out of him!
Jay of Lasgalen · 8 November 2005 · Chapter 28: Road to Recovery
I'm relieved that the arrow aimed at Elladan was fired by his brother (and him throwing it back!) I imagined yet more angst suffered by the four. I loved Aragorn's reaction to Legolas's grouchy comment - 'Kill the elf? OK!!'
Author's reply
Hehehe. I thought it would be wicked for Aragorn to shoot his own brother. *eg*
BlueEyedElf · 30 October 2005 · Chapter 27: No More Surprises
AWWWW! That was really sweet. Sounds like it's going to be a while before Legolas is okay. Can't wait to se Estel's reaction when he finds out that Legolas woke up for a little while. I read your reply to one of the other reviews and am glad to know that Elladan is okay. You had me scared there. I will be looking forward to your next update.
Author's reply
Hmm... Elladan is okay? Well... wait and see. Hee hee hee...
Aelinmir · 27 October 2005 · Chapter 27: No More Surprises
No More Surprises... please don't hurt the elf.
Author's reply
No more surprises. Really. :D
eliza61 · 27 October 2005 · Chapter 27: No More Surprises
Ok, I think I may be able to review after my hearts starts beating again. I can't believe you entitled this chapter "No more surprises". Very nice chapter, I actually thought we were going to have a chapter with no angst in it (silly me). I enjoyed the interlude with Legolas & Elrohir. Speaking on behalf of Elrond, Please, please, please let Elladan avoid injury for a little while. Anxiously awaiting an update. Eliza
Author's reply
Elladan won't be happy. LOL! Wait till you see what really happened. Hehehee.
BlueEyedElf · 21 October 2005 · Chapter 26: Slow Healing
Poor Legolas! I hope he is just a bit disoriented from being sick for so long. Also, I'm glad Elrohir got Aragorn to get some rest. Sounds like he needs it. Sorry I haven't reviewed up until now, but I have been reading and enjoying. I am looking forward to the next chapter.
Author's reply
There is always hope. :) Hope for the best :D Good thing Aragorn wasn't there to witness it. Hee hee heeee. I'm happy to know that you are still reading. Thanks for reviewing! :D
Galiemeril · 27 September 2005 · Chapter 23: Escaping the Truth
Doom, doom, doom! Ten bucks says it's Elrond! I love chapters like this, I hope legolas recovers soon!
Author's reply
Ten bucks it is :D No regrets? ;)
Aelinmir · 27 September 2005 · Chapter 23: Escaping the Truth
It is not right to end a chapter in the middle of a sentence.
Author's reply
Hehehe. And there's nothing you can do about it. LOL!!
Gladys · 17 September 2005 · Chapter 22: Prisoner of the Mind
Please hurry up! You can do it!:-)
Author's reply
Yes! I can do it! :D Thanks for reviewing! :)
pipinheart · 17 September 2005 · Chapter 22: Prisoner of the Mind
Well, he's up at least...not in the right frame of mind though... And at least Aragorn and Elrohir have spotted him... Please continue
Author's reply
Yeah, hopefully Aragorn will set his mind straight again... soon. LOL!
Samantha · 6 September 2005 · Chapter 21: Falling Apart
To lose hope is to give up. This is such a strong life lesson in one small sentence. Will be waiting for the next chapter. Sorry I haven't reviewed before but I am reading each word. {(hugs Legolas)}
Author's reply
And I thank you for leaving a review for this chapter :D
pipinheart · 6 September 2005 · Chapter 21: Falling Apart
This was nice...Legolas seems to respond to Estel, but he is so distraut over it... His brothers and father are worried...This is great, but wished it had been longer... Please continue
Author's reply
I'm sorry it's too short for you. :) But I'm glad you liked it anyway :D

Nice job...Legolas is in pain though the bleeding has stopped...Aragorn, Elladan, and Elrohir as well as Glorifindel are worried about the young prince...nice job...Please continue...
Author's reply
Yup, everyone is in the "worry mode". Hehehe. There will be some angst and H/C coming up in the next chapter. :)
pipinheart · 15 August 2005 · Chapter 19: Keeping Vigil
They have found something to help Legoals, but is it in time...Nice...please continue...
Author's reply
Will find out if it's in time in the next few chapters :D But knowing Elrond, if it's not going to work, I doubt that he will be willing to try it on Legolas. ;)
pipinheart · 5 August 2005 · Chapter 18: Encouragements of an Old Friend
Very nice...Elrohir is getting better, as well as Elladan. Estel hasn't gotten back with the plants and Legolas isn't looking good....Please continue...Poor Legolas needs the antidote...
Author's reply
Ahh yes... Estel and Erestor are still on their way home wondering if they'll make it in time to save their friend... What a trip! *eg*
pipinheart · 25 July 2005 · Chapter 17: Unexpected Discoveries
Love this story... Poor Estel those memories are hard to deal with... I never would have thought of a secret compartment,I hope they found the posion with the plant he picked....Please update soon....Lovely...
Author's reply
Happy happy joy joy :D Thanks for reviewing! Yes, they have found some strange plant. I'm pretty sure it'll contribute to something ;)
pipinheart · 15 July 2005 · Chapter 16: Voice from The Past
This is a great story,love it! Elrohir and Legolas are finally seen by Elrond,but what is the posion...What is wrong with Elladan,is posion still in his body. Poor Estel,the haunting memories of that place makes him relive the things that happened... Please.....Update soon...Can't wait to hear more...
Author's reply
It is just another evil nameless poison that i've come up with. LOL! As for Elladan, he's still recovering from the muscle relaxant that the mercenaries had thrown into his face. And now poor Aragorn has to battle his inner demon. But at least Erestor is with him to give him some support. :)
pipinheart · 9 July 2005 · Chapter 15: From Bad to Worse
Ah, this is great.... You left it on a cliffhanger...I want more,please update soon.... Great stuff....
Author's reply
I will update in a few days time :) Don't want to leave you hanging on the cliff for too long. :D
Lauralin · 5 July 2005 · Chapter 15: From Bad to Worse
Arrgghhh...what a cliffy!please update soon in case i go insane. P.S great fic by the way.
Author's reply
You mean you're not insane already? ;) I sincerely wish you could hold on a little longer. Hehehe :D
Jay of Lasgalen · 24 June 2005 · Chapter 14: Against All Odds
Well, at least Legolas isn't quite dead - yet. And now Aragorn is riding as hard as he can for Rivendell, so hopefully Elrond will sort them both out. Elrohir is also safely home, so I hope his father can heal him as well. Great chapter - very tense. Jay
Author's reply
No, Legolas isn't quite dead yet but close. LOL! He's hanging on...
Viresse · 7 June 2005 · Chapter 12: Of Elves and Pain
Fortunately Elrohir's cut is shallow, but that only mean the poison really affects Legolas greatly. While they fear for Legolas' wound get infection, I think it's very likely Elladan suffered an infection already as his deep knife wound was never being treated for days, adding to the 'weakening' poison that he had earlier...is Elladan hiding his suffering also? Will these troublesome four arrive Rivendell save? anymore actions in future chapters? I hope you'll update soon.
Author's reply
Elladan's wound is pretty much healed thanks to his elven healing abilities. He was fortunate that the knife used to injure him was his own and therefore not poisoned. But someone will "poke" fun of him later. LOL! Elrohir however is not so lucky. The poison is interfering with his healing because it won't stop bleeding. I'll be more worried about him ;)
