Aw, that's awesome, man. And the ending is perfect. Good job, Estel! ^^

I like the way you described Legolas' fears and how you had their conversation--you're just so good with those. ^^ You kept them really in-character, too. ^^

“...but I find that I would rather be a fool twice than lose my hope once.” I really love that. ^^

Hey, you have really been busy! ^_^ You must have read through half this journal yesterday, lol! The funny thing is, I read your new story late at night yesterday, but wanted to review when I'm a bit more coherent. *g*

I thought that would probably be the only way to distract Legolas, to make him think about trees, lol. I'm very glad you liked my descriptions and their conversation! Thank you!!! Now you nearly make me blush! Hehe. I tried to keep them in character and write a bit more Tolkien-ish than I usually do...

I have to say I liked that sentence. ;-) It was fun to write and sounded like something Aragorn might say. Thank you very much for reviewing! ^_^ *off to answer your next comment*

Lol. Well, I figured it was about time to reply to your stories. ^^ Took long enough. >_> Lol, and thanks for the review. ^^

*nodnod* Very good way to distract him. ^^ Love it when people have Aragorn--or Legolas--sing to comfort the other. ^^ Lol, good. You deserve it. ^^ Honestly, I haven't read all of the LotR books. I've only read the first and most of the second, think I stopped with like, forty pages since a different book caught my interest, and then another, and another... >_>;; Tolkien's style is kinda iffy for me. I just need to try it again, cuz that was a long time ago that I read it. Your style I like. No ifs, ands or buts. ^^

And I must agree. It's perfect for him. ^^

Lol. And here I go, too. ^^;;

[silivren_tinu]

Hehe. My LotR-obsession started with the books. I devoured them and re-read them... well, very, very often, lol. I loved Tolkien's language, but I don't think I could ever really write like that, not even in German. It would sound hilarious. ^^ I'm glad you like my style!

That's just perfect. :) I can see this scene as part of the novel. :) As another friend might say, it's canon-tight, or pretty close.

Thank you, I feel honoured that you can see that as part of a novel. :) I wanted to try and stick to canon as closely as possible this time, it was a quite interesting challenge. I'm glad it worked. ;-)
