oh hell. legolas, you have my condolances(sp?).

I so enjoyed this story on Teitho. I'm delighted to find it again. You've done a great job of pushing the limits of disguise. Your narrative is seamless, and the resolution priceless. Keep on writing, you've got the knack.

I didn't see that one coming...poor Legolas. The things one must to do to fight evil.

Poor poor legolas.

Dear Valar... I was wondering what those two were up to... *sighs* "It seemed like a good idea at the time"... the perennial excuse for getting into trouble, or out of it, for that matter.

Well, you certainly had me fooled. I was worried for a while there. Poor Legolas. The things he does for Estel... And lying to Elrond was a beautiful ending. Love the punch line.

This was very clever and well written and kept me guessing right until the end. I was sure Galawen was a woman by 'her' behaviour until all was revealed!

Oh Valar! I was staring in disbelief! At first I thought it would be Legolas when I clicked on the story but then as I read I was burning with curiosity as to who this Elvish woman was, and anger that Aragorn would hurt Arwen by acting thus with another woman. Then when I saw the word 'transform' I realised ''it IS Legolas!'' and almost laughed out loud. The part about the apples was so funny! And I can only imagine what Legolas would have gone through had Aragorn told them that Legolas was dressed as a woman! After I finished reading it I re-read the whole part. The way you wrote it is so good! It's such that when I first read it the fact that this companion was a woman seemed beyond doubt, yet when I re-read it I realised how you'd carefully phrased everything so you never actually said she WAS a woman! And the way 'she' and Aragorn interacted, too, seemed to imply... well, you can guess.

You know, it says a lot about Legolas that he can pass off as a sexy woman so well... ;) And now I kind of wish Aragorn HAD told Elladan and Elrohir, and Elrond! The Lord of the Vale would never be able to keep a straight face again when looking upon the Prince(ss?) of Mirkwood!

I thoroughtly enjoyed this story! Wonderful job, mellon-nin! I had a really bad day and was depressed but your story has done me as much good as a stay in Lothlorien! (Sorry, I am re-reading LOTR at the moment so I am in a bit of a 'Middle-Earth' mood!)

This story was really great. I didn't have a clue that it was Legolas until he was revealed. though I did wonder why Aragorn was acting so familiar with a strange woman. It would have been very easy for this story to take a different direction. And you seem to be able to write that way too. It gave me very slashy ideas. I did like Maldor. I was glad that he got his kiss. I wanted one too. Not from Maldor though.

*giggles* loved it. Though I've noticed that in these kind of stories poor Legolas gets cast as the girl more often than Aragorn... and turnabout is fair play *grins mischieviously*

I remember reading this long ago. It's just as good now. An interesting plot to begin with, and then great characters. You are amazing.

Thanks for posting it again.

Oh this is very good, Pentangle. Full of great humor, serious intrigue, and I really liked how you handled it all, especially, even a kiss being somethign very dear to an elf.

Thanks for sharing! Seems I need to dig in deeper at Teitho and read the past stuff!

Your stories come highly recommended. Now I see why. Absolutely priceless.

Different. Very different than your usual stories. But idea with Legolas posing as a woman is just brilliant. Not to mention absolutely hilarious!
To be honest first part confused me. What pair is this story about? I caught on that "Amiel" and Aragorn were the same person only after I've read the part it was written. After that it was only logical that "Galadwen" was in reality Legolas.
Maldor...interesting character. Good illustration of the old saying "Don't judge book by its covers".
I like style of this piece. As I've mentioned it's different than usual, but I liked it a lot anyway.
I still snicker at the mental image of Legolas in skirt. And with brown hair...and make-up...and bust made of apples...
Heh, my parents just asked me what is so funny I'm grinning :D
I also like the fact this story deals with gathering information before the War of the Ring. There aren't enough of them around here. It's rather neglected subject.
I will end it in my normal fashion: with question. Or two. Did you check out Fanfic100? If you did, what do you think about that?

So it seemed... lol!

Thank you for writing it, very enjoyable story that i love to read.

*Hugs and Kisses*

Have a great week and keep smiling,
