Ah - I do like to think of them not going to the dark side, but working away secretively. Thank you.

Me too (I needed the notes from PoM-e to make it gen!)

What a good idea to use the Blue wizards for this! I love your opening line - it's very visual.

Thanks! I knew right away I want to use them, but had to dig in the histories for an idea about how.

I like the feel of this one. I could see them as I read this.

Thank you. When I am writing these two, I can always *smell* smoke.

Thank you. So much in Tolkien happens in small asides - it's a great place to be for me since action makes me put a bag over my head.

Oh how wonderful! To think that one of the many journeys Aragorn and Gandalf made together was to find some evidence of the Blue Wizards! It makes me want to know more!

And a perfect choice for the prompt!

Thank you! It was one of the few clear color choices I've had writing for this set of prompts.
