I quite enjoyed the differences in the twins when they encountered the sea.

I'm sure they weren't alike in everything! Usually I identify with Elrohir, but this time I'm with Elladan :(

Oh poor Elladan I have every sympathy. I hope it doesn't colour his decision making when he has to decide about sailing West...

I'm not a great sailor either. I feel very sorry for Elladan!

He thinks about his decision to sail here: The Road not Taken

Oh, of course! I remember the story, but had forgotten that last line!

Heh, oh I liked this, one twin all delight and the other seasick! Lovely contrast.

jay_of_lasgalen February 19 2011, 22:59:45 UTC

Well, I thought they couldn't be the same on everything! There had to be some differences.

Poor Elladan! An enjoyable drabble.

I don't think Elladan enjoyed it much ;)

i like the link to the differences; think about elrond and elros...elros loved the sea also.

Oooh, yes - but I don't want Elladan and Elrohir to chose different fates :(
