You can blame the farts on me any time you like. LOL

Feanor had best mind his stones. Very amusing!

Heh, thank you! It was definitely a change from my usual sort of thing, and that's always refreshing now and then. :D

'Add treasure': never before so appropriate. But I will gladly heap jewels onto Scarlett's pile, because, I mean, hello, anthropomorphic personification of War, here.

Also I have a lot of love for your descriptions of Silmaril-light interacting with War's generalized reddening factor.

Ha, I hadn't considered that. Yay for sparkly things! :D

Annnnnnnnnnnnnd I know I promised Sylvania and haven't delivered for, like, two days, but... eh. I had a bad attack of Being Human yesterday and today I got distracted by this instead, so, it will happen? Soon now. I swear.

Well, considering I'm pretty sure I promised that Mary/Crowley would appear yesterday and I have, uhhh, like two hundred words of it at most, I think you are well ahead of me w/r/t totally not empty promises/swears.

You implied that some would, but with certain caveats re: schoolwork, I think, so. But hey, I'll take the moral high ground if it's going spare.

This is delightful, thank you! I was really surprised to see it so quickly.
There are some really gorgeous bits of description here:

A mere ‘wow’ seems inadequate. Maedhros takes aim at greater eloquence. “Sweet!”
Lovely bit of teenage amazement there.
And I liked this:
Her perfume catches in Maedhros’s throat. It isn’t floral.
And:
“I like you, Fëanor. You’re my sort of chap. I like the way you think. I like your little toys...”. He was indeed her sort of chap, wasn't he.

I love seeing less elevated elves.
Thank you for an enjoyable reading experience early in the morning.

I'm still on holiday, at least until Sunday. After that, it'll all slow down. ;) Anyway, I'm so glad you had fun with this! I definitely had fun writing it -- although you know I'd love to read your take. :'D

I am tempted to try...
Thank you for your kind words by the way. I am honoured that you think I imagine beautiful things.
