I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Merry Christmas!

I love the way you inserted this scene believably into the narrative of their flight into the forest. Also, it made a lot of sense that, after all the being battered and frightened and trying to protect each other, they would finally allow themselves to express what might have always been hidden under the surface - and to come together. Very nice story.

Thank you so much!

What a sweet interlude this is!

“I was afraid you were going to go too far and lose me.”

I liked this passage for the little shadow of what Merry says to Pippin on the Pelennor when Merry finds him (er, movie-verse :-)

Lovely fic!

This was fantastic! I held my breath all the way through and I really like how you've stuck this scene into the larger story. It was very sweet, and I would have liked to have seen it in the movie ;)

Thank you so much! :D It would have been pretty nice to have those two going at it, though I guess I have to grudgingly admit they had a point in excluding it :P
