Goodness! I don't really know what word to use to describe this! The first word should be awesome! Because it was. Really. A truly great friendship-fic with so strong emotions it felt like I could touch them through the screen. (Not, really, but... Yeah, you know. It's late and I'm babbling)
I'm also amazed how you could come up with so much of their bickering! Wich, I have to say, are some om my favorites. Such loving arguing!

I have enjoyed the first 4 chapters of the story and I am sure i wii enjoy the remaining. I looked at the pictures you did on your blog but I was unable to leave a review. The two I looked at showed an able grasp of draftmanship as well as careful inking (assuming of course that is what you used.)

And what did happen to Arwen's crown?

Fantastic fic, exceedingly well-written! I love how you portray the relationship between Gimli and Legolas -- true to both the book and movie versions! And who would have thought that Arwen would be thus formidable? ;) Definitely a story on my favourites list!

I REALLY enjoyed reading this story. It builds on and explores Legolas' and Gimli's friendship nicely.

In chapter 23 you made mention of two times when Gimli might have been frightened, The Paths of the Dead (I know this one) and Harad. You also made mention of Legolas being trapped in a cave before. Can you elaborate on this for me? Are you referring to another story? If they come from another FanFic I would love to read them.

Thanks again for keeping me entertained for a couple of hours. WELL DONE!

Yay! I love it! You've got a very good handle on all the characters and how they interact...I especially liked the blackmailing bits and how Arwen was represented.
Sorry I can't give you as good a review as you gave me. Oh, and I've updated the story... Wow. I'm really subtle aren't I?

Hello Rhys!

I truly enjoyed this story. It was very creative, original, entertaining and most importantly, well written. I liked how you stuck to a convincing nature of the characters and kept the story moving with fast updates. You are truly becoming an excellent story teller.

I wish you well on future stories and look forward to seeing more from you! Take care and thanks for this read!

I am so SORRY I missed your other chapters. But I'm here, I just read them all! I'm glad Legolas somewhat conquered his fear, and will go to Aglarond with Gimli, because thats what friends so for each other!

The scene where Leggy shifted his head and Gimli looked thought he looked like a bird, that made me giggle because all I can see is my German Shepherd doing that, because they do that head tilt if you make a funny noise at them! Its so adorable, and so that putting Leggy's head and him having was so cute!

Anyways loved it, and hope to see more work by you ;)

When you write from Eldarion's perspective, you do a very good job of showing us a child's priorities and motivations. The tears of happiness in Gimli's eyes were a nice touch, as was the note that he would have said that they were only caused by a bit of smoke from the torches. Heh heh heh. I think not, Gimli, you old softie.

Loved the contrast betwen the enthusiasm of the young prince and the reluctance and fear of the older one!

HEHE!! Mae carnen, mellon nin! Sorry I haven't updated! My goodness, but it's been a while! I laughed so hard during the chapter 21, my brother came running because he thought it was the doorbell! :) I have a very annoying laugh... or so my brothers told me! :) I didn't understand half of the words Legolas said, but oh well! :) I wonder what this button does. It doesn't do anything! wierd! Is it wierd or weird? They both look right to me... like grey and gray! Gah! I can't stand spelling grey with an a! Tolkien spelled it with an e! He was a decent sensible person, then again, that's what everyone thought of Bilbo before he ran off to kill Smaug. Sorry, my teacher put our desks into groups of 3 instead of rows, and NO ONE in my group has even read LOTR, much less understand what I'm talking about if I open my mouth, and my friend Moosey is not obsessed with LOTR and doesn't want to get obsessed again, so she refrains from even talking about it, and she's five desks away from me so I can't talk to her anyways! Not to mention I got a 58 on my progress report for English! ENGLISH! I got a 4 on my exam out of 4, and I still got a 58! Gah, I'm going to go insane before the six weeks is even over! Sorry for that little... whatever that was... rant? Heh! That sounds like Rand! (Character in the book I'm reading. He's an idiot...) "Going to go insane?" I crap, I already AM insane!! Darn it! I have a song stuck in my head that we played in band, and I don't remember what comes next in the song so it just plays over and ovder again until I can't stand it, and that sucks cause I love that part! And I don't have the melody, so I can't play it and find out what's next so that I won't hate that part!! Now we're going to play Highland Legends tomorrowe in band and we'll get to that measure and a half that's stuck in my head and I'll feel like screaming because I used to love it and now I can't stand it!! :( Which sucks, because I LOVE this part! I know! I'll listen to Linkin Park and get In the End stuck in my head! I can never bring myself to hate that song because I love it to death and I've memorized every inch of it so I can't become crazy wondering what's next! That's better! Now I just have to keep myself from typing the lyrics on the computer screen! I tried so hard and got so far... NO MUST RESIST! Oh, what the heck! iT STARTS WITH ONE THING, i DON'T KNOW WHY, IT DOESN'T EVEN MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY! kEEP THAT IN MIND AND WHEN THE TIME IS RIGHT YOU'LL REMIND MYSELF HOW i TRIED SO HARD DESPITE OF THE WAY YOU WERE MOCKING ME ACTIN LIKE i WAS PART OF YOU'RE PROPERTY REMEMBERING ALL THE TIMES YOU FOUGHT WITH ME i'M SURPRISED IT GOT SO (fAR) THINGS AREN'T THE WAY THEY WERE BEFORE YOU WOULDN'T EVEN RECOGNIZE ME ANYMORE! nOT THAT YOU KNEW ME BACK THEN, BUT IT ALL COMES BACK TO ME in the end! i KEPT EVERYTHING INSIDE, AND EVEN THOUGH i TRIED, IT ALL FELL APART! wHAT IT MEANT TO ME WILL EVENTUALLY BE A MEMORY OF A TIME WHEN i tried so hard and got so far! but in the end it doesn't even matter i had to fall to lose it all! but in the end, it doesn't even matter! Whoops! had the caps lock on without realising it! oh well! :) I LOVE that song! Me an dmy best friend used to sing that song all the time! Every time I ent over to her house, we wuld have the radio on in case it came on so we could sing it. One time, her Grandma came over so they could celebrate her grandma's birthday, and they invited mne to go somewhere, and it came on the radio, and me and Ashley sang it at the top of our lungs! and at the end of it, her grandma just said "wow..." it would have been funny if I weren't so embarrassed! :) But then she moved, and I couldn't listen to this song without being sad, but my addiction to listening to this song won over, so I started listening to it again. What am I talking bout?!? I've rambled longer than all the chapters I've ever written put together! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Sorry! I should go now. I still have a paper that's due tomorrow that I need to do, and there's always the chance that I'll type the words to every Linkin Park song imaginable on my homework...

Namarie, Mallon nin!

What do you mean, IT'S DONE??

No, I'm joking. This was absolutely, profoundly, incredibly, and entirely wonderful. I really loved it. I loved Gimli's sweetness, I loved Legolas' realistic character, I LOVED Eldarion's perfect childishness, and I think my favorite humorous part was Arwen's thoughts at the end of chp. 23. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

(And as an afterthought, WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO GLORFY?! If you've hurt him, you will DEFINITELY get the emus! Now I have to go read "Shadows Creeping"! And thanks for reviewing "Requiem". I'm glad you liked it!)

~Your friend always,
Avie~
