What a beautiful story! Such well-crafted dialogue! Really struck the right balance between heart-wrenching sincerity and witty repartees. I want and need to believe that Legolas and Gimli would continue to follow each other, to the Undying Lands and then beyond death itself.

I actually started crying. Amazing writing!

Oh, this is so beautiful, and heart-wrenchingly true. Anyone who has sat by the deathbed of a loved one knows something of what Legolas goes through in this story. Thank you so much for writing this.

I just can't see Tolkien's Legolas being that neurotic.

This made me cry, but I needed it.

Phenomenal fic thanks for writing.

What a heartbreakingly beautiful story. The emotions! The heartache! This is not a story I will soon forget. I now have to go get me another box of tissues, I haven’t cried so much while reading a story in awihle.

Five years ago, I lost someone close to me, and I wasn’t able to cry. I tried all kinds of things, but I couldn’t. I got tired of trying and decided to numb myself completely for a while and let my mind go blank on fanfiction in the middle of the night, and I happened across this story. It broke whatever wall there had been, and I wept. It sounds so strange and foolish to say, because it’s fanfiction in the face of real loss, but it was a gift. I didn’t think I would find this story again, but here it is, and I’m in a better mindset to write to you now. Thank you, friend.

First time I’ve cried at a fanfic in a long, long time and l think the last time I did (this many tears at least) was at this story. Well done!(:

Luthien was allowed to follow Beren into his own afterlife instead of the Halls of Mandos, why shouldn't Legolas be allowed to do the same for Gimli? Don't worry, dear author, you do have a precedent to work from.

One of the most beautiful stories I've ever read! I cried and smiled and was deep in thought. Thank you for this incredible piece of art.

This story is amazing

you made me cry so much... but also smile in the end
... Beautifully written... *still sobbing*

This story was beautiful to read, an emotional at that too! It's been a long time since I have had tears brought to my eyes when reading a fanfiction - one so short too. Well done! I loved every word of it.

bravo!
