I know it's been many years since you posted this but damn this is good...like...wow just wow...so amazing. You are an incredible writer and just thank you for sharing this with us

Thanks for a great story about the Company. It was good to hear Bilbo's observations about them, as he would have a very unique perspective. I didn't mind the bittersweet ending, because that made the memories that Bilbo is thinking about after the funeral for the Durins even more poignant.

You are a horrible person. Normally fanfics don't do this to me. I thought I was going to get a happy fic but no you just had to rip my heart out. You are an amazing author(even if you do give me feels)

You. Are. Despicable. I could have lived my life being only mildly sad about these character's deaths, but of course I had to read this and now I'm going to be depressed for the rest of my life. The first chapters were amusing, but this last one...I'm not usually one to cry while reading, but this about did it. Thank you, O Crusher of Souls, I enjoyed this fic although I'm now dead inside.

Beautifully executed! So glad it did develop a life of its own - it thoroughly deserved that life :D

As if I needed any more reasons to cry about fictional characters!

Thanks for this well-written, well-thought, moving story.

Just to let you know I sobbed while reading this! Beautiful story!

You made me and my sister cry so much. My mom and brothers were looking at us like 'Wha?' but I DON'T GIVE A FUDGE. You are so awesome, you hit us in the feels.

Sister: Yep, Mei's really correct. You frickin' had us there, fellow writer.

I loved it!
This last chapter practically had me bawling like a baby. You write wonderfully, very well done!

Beautiful story of character and observation told in a creative manner. Like the origianl story it started out lighthearted and fun only to add in profound sadness. Very nicely done.

Beautiful story. I loved so many things about it, from Kili and Fili sleeping in a tangled mess to the beautifully heart wrenching last chapter. Thank you for sharing.

Jesus Christ! Second time in two days I've had to relive the death of my favourites and this time is wasn't prepared, dammit! I'm crying now!

But... This was amazing; I loved it. It,s not often that fanfics induce the same emotion that the original books do, but this... It was far more intense than when I first read of it... I'll just go cry in my corner now, attempting to find the remains of my shattered feels...

I like it. It's sad, but good. That connection you made is apparent and you went from one end of the spectrum to the other without making it crazily drastic, which can be annoying.

This story was sweet and dear. :)

This was a beautiful and creative piece. I enjoyed it immensely, even if it did make me cry. Thank you for sharing!
