Claudia, you're killing me! I fear actual death from frustration and suspense!

*kicks Halbarad's ankle. He hops in pain, stumbles forward, and lands in Frodo's arms*

Ah, love your icon! ;-)

Hal and Frood are being AWFULLY stubborn for me. *sighs* I do so want them to kiss...

Thanks!

UST. It's a good thing.

Though I don't suppose Halbarad would agree at the moment.

I've just printed them for bedtime reading. The problem with this is that I keep forgetting to feedback. Loving it so far. And to be honest, I like long buildups - the slower the better. Mrawr. *nods*

Thanks! ;-) I like long build-ups, too, but I still get frustrated! ;-D

Argh! *bangs head against wall*

He could not very well blurt out that he loved Halbarad and wished only for him to have as much happiness as could be salvaged so far from his home.

Embarrassing, maybe, but it would have saved a lot of misunderstanding!

Seriously, I love how you have Halbarad considering the differences between Hobbit and Man culture. It's a reasonable caution. Perhaps the wine will work. *licks lips*

Yes, isn't it frustrating when lovers don't say what they mean?? *bangs own head against wall*

Thank you! Here's to hoping the wine will loosten them up! ;-)
