Reviews for Home for the Holidays by Elladan son of Elrond |

![]() ![]() I just figured out that Glorfindel's song on December 22 can be sung to the tune of O Come All Ye Faithful. Hilarious fic. I love the bit where Boromir swears too much, but I wish Gandalf had a more active role... |
![]() ![]() hilarious...like diary of a wimpy kid for LOTR! And really well written! |
![]() ![]() ![]() Lol. Nice fic. Very original and funny. I like how some things are totally elvish and others are totally of our world. Nice work. |
![]() ![]() ![]() Lol, highly amusing, especially the gifts from Galadriel. |
![]() ![]() ![]() LOL! I love your fic! It's so funny! |
![]() ![]() ![]() Lol, I like the fight between Erestor and Glorfindel about the cars. It would be very funny if Erestor really was a millionaire. |
![]() ![]() ![]() You had me at "Elrohir has a bladder the size of a walnut." And it was all downhill after that. Lessons to Elrond on proper usage of prepositions. Ingredients on the peanut package ("may contain peanuts or other nuts" indeed). Glorfindel's little oopsie with the high-school girl and his adventures with car rentals and accounting. "Eltendo's" iguana with a secret name and a tendency to horf up banana bits. Big-eyed cactus aliens (in fact, I was laughing so hard at the first Legolas e-mail that I, well, I snorted). And Granny Galadriel's sex-toy fetish and that Nog Log are just... wrong. Finally, even though this is fiction and humour fiction at that, I have to say that Elladan has my full support in his efforts to keep holidays from being celebrated far too soon. He seems a thoughtful, earnest young elf (when he's sober; He might also be a touch sarcastic, too). And he certainly deserves the best gifts from the grandparents. (Sincerely, I couldn't stop reading this thing. I tried to stop at chapter 3 and go to sleep because it was very late. But I figured, just a couple more entries. Who would know? It's now stupid early in the morning, and I just finished reading. Your story is crack.) [Comment originally submitted to the MEFAwards voting. Congrats!] |
![]() ![]() ![]() I tried to use as a tent at the beach once but it fell on me and made the dog afraid and the dog did step on my foot with it's long claws! It was a black dog and very heavy. That was cruel. I was taking a drink of Dr. Pepper, and it shot up my nose. I hope you're happy. Does Legolas really think in sentences like that? |
![]() ![]() ![]() I don't know how long we will stay here. Maybe a long time. Gandalf fell in a hole and now nobody knows what to do. I swear to Depp, I laughed for a full ten minutes over that one. I fell off my chair. I love Elrohir's room. I want one like that. Complete with the iguana and cat. |
![]() ![]() ![]() Once again, I love this story. It makes me laugh until I can't breathe. It makes me happy! |
![]() ![]() ![]() Hey... protesting the early Christmas decorations is exactly what I've planned to do every year... if I didn't have to go to school. Does Legolas actually have a mind? Or does he just share Elrohir's from time to time? |
![]() ![]() ![]() I love Legolas' emails. They make no sense. And Glorfindel and Elrohir's songs. |
![]() ![]() ![]() There are absolutely no words to describe how incredibly funny this is...I was laughing so hard I was crying at the computer screen; my sister would walk by mumbling, "Dork." I love what you did with the twins, and especially Glorfindel! Can't wait for "From Rohan With Love!" Are Elladan and Elrohir going to hook up? |
![]() ![]() Update? pretty pretty pretty please? i've been waiting very patiently... RRP |
![]() ![]() ![]() Oh, this is an absolute hoot! Loved the "Summer Vacation" one, but this is even funnier. Just imagining Middle-earth with all the modern accoutrements is funny enough, but the way the characters are portrayed-Glorfindel, Legolas, and Elrohir especially-have me practically rolling on the floor. :) |
