,i>Awwwwwwww. A nice round of comparisons for that greatest sight of all, which of course would be true for Aragorn, who must have so longed, over the years, to be a father.

I can just see poor Elessar manfully concealing his dismay at the cloak of peacock feathers and yet another gem-encrusted vase! Being King does have a down side! Nicely done.
Author's reply
Many thanks for your much appreciated review. Aragorn should have seen some of the Christmas gifts I get,woolly bedsocks, hideous jewellry, and spiced biscuits for example!Vases and peacock feathers would not seem too bad by comparison.

A lovely and enchanting drabble which describes most movingly how elated Aragorn must have felt when Eldarion was born, after waiting so long for such a moment.

So perfect! Yes!
Author's reply
Thank you so much!I thought I would end with what Aragorn had yearned so long for.

Faramir has learned--the HARD way! Heh!
Author's reply
He has indeed.I doubt he'll make the same mistake again!
Larner · 25 June 2009 · Chapter 13: Cruel Torment
Poor Aragorn--but then Faramir IS right! Heh!
Author's reply
I think the older you get the less you like birthdays,especially as they seem to arrive faster every year! At least we don't have to endure what Aragorn does!

A bittersweet tribute to the pain involved in loving anyone; not to mention the price that Arwen paid for hers. Nicely done!
Author's reply
Many thanks for your much appreciated review. I'm pleased you enjoyed my drabble and reflections on the price one must pay for love.
Raksha The Demon · 20 June 2009 · Chapter 12: A Feast of Lemons
Wonderful response to the "Embarrassment" prompt; and a lively drabble. That will teach certain courtiers to embarrass a guest in front of the king!
Author's reply
Many thanks for your much appreciated review. I'm pleased you enjoyed my drabble.I hope the courtiers will have better manners in future!
Larner · 19 June 2009 · Chapter 12: A Feast of Lemons
And I love our wise King with his empathy and his sense of fairness, seeking to make the envoy feel more at ease in these strange environs.
Author's reply
Many thanks for your much appreciated review.I love Aragorn too for his goodness which made me feel he would act like this.
Larner · 19 June 2009 · Chapter 11: Crown of Thorns
Unfortunately, there are always griefs and pains associated with beauty and love--but in the end they are always worth it!
Author's reply
That is so true. Grief is the price we often pay for love,but who would choose to live without it? Many thanks for your much appreciated review.
Estelcontar · 19 June 2009 · Chapter 12: A Feast of Lemons
How like Aragorn to teach a lesson by setting the example. I enjoyed this very much.
Author's reply
Many thanks for your much appreciated review. I'm pleased you enjoyed this and felt it be in character for Aragorn.
Estelcontar · 19 June 2009 · Chapter 11: Crown of Thorns
That is a most touching drabble Linda. It is true that beautiful things can hurt us. And trust Aragorn to brave the rose torns to give Arwen pleasure.

Many thanks for your much appreciated review. I'm pleased you enjoyed my drabble.

Yes! It is time and time for that special vintage! Heh!
Author's reply
It is indeed. I hope he enjoys it.
Larner · 9 June 2009 · Chapter 9: Finest Vintage
Oh, yes--he has that joy yet to taste!

He has indeed and the waiting will make it all the sweeter.

HI I like your insight on Aragorn! :-)

Thank you.I'm pleased you like these.
Estelcontar · 8 June 2009 · Chapter 10: Sweeter than Wine
Aragorn is simply irresistible in his poetical mood. It's no wonder Arwen loved him How could she not? Lovely drabble, Linda.
Author's reply
Many thanks for your much appreciated review.I'm so pleased you enjoyed the drabble. Arwen is a lucky lady!
Estelcontar · 8 June 2009 · Chapter 9: Finest Vintage
I do love a lyrical Aragorn. I've always thought he had a poetical side. After all, Bilbo asked his help to write his Ëarendil poem.
Author's reply
Many thanks for your much appreciated review.I'm so pleased you enjoyed the drabble. I agree Aragorn must have been something of a poet.
Estelcontar · 8 June 2009 · Chapter 8: Fit For a King?
That's our Aragorn, indeed. I'm sure he would have been even happier if the inkeeper had Barliman's Best. LOL
Author's reply
Many thanks for your much appreciated review.I'm sure Aragorn would have liked some of Barliman's brew best!
Estelcontar · 8 June 2009 · Chapter 7: Empty Places
A very poignant and, to my mind, truthfull portrait of Aragorn. I do believe that at his coronation mingled with his joy, and tempering it would be the sorrow for those who gave their all to ensure that he would be king.
Author's reply
Many thanks for your much appreciated review.I'm so pleased you find my drabble poignant. I@m sure many had joy mingled with sorrow that day.
Estelcontar · 8 June 2009 · Chapter 6: No Common Soldier
Great drabble. It's good to see Thorongil give better than he got, and still be his usual polite and unruffled self
Author's reply
Many thanks for your much appreciated review.I'm so pleased you enjoyed the drabble. I can imagine Aragorn as the master in verbal fencing as well as the more deadly sort!
