Alright, I admit to feeling a little fluffy. But only a little. You managed to put Legolas through the wringer in a most perfect manner. And did I ever tell you that I like amnesia-stories? I think we even called a search for amnesia fics on AA once:) Though, so much is still unresolved. Legolas seems to have a sense of who he is, but he can't remember. At the rate he's going right now memory might come back quicker that everyone anticipates, but maybe he will still question the choices he did in the past - especially concerning Valinor. And what about his father? You write him as a convincing three-dimensional character where a lot of writers only make him the cliched badass who isn't able to love. So I'm actually looking forward to seeing his own resolution of "Never Again" come into fruition. He seems to try, but it's also much easier to simply blame Legolas' friends. Coming back tomorrow (if I don't spend my evening with the second season of Twin Peaks, that is *g*)!
Author's Response: Oh goody! You're still reading. That is always a good thing! *grin* You can't have all that angst without some fluff to balance it out or the readers have nervous breakdowns! I'm afraid the angst is far from over in this fic which means more fluff to though. You did tell me you like amnesia stories. I do too! I just can't write that in every story as the plot, though I'd like to do it more. I haven't read many of them though. Seems they are few and far between. You like my Thranduil huh? I'm hearing that a lot and it is VERY encouraging since he was an extremely intimidating character to write at first. I almost didn't write him in this, I was so afraid of ruining him. But now he is my favorite character to write! I hate Evil Thranduil fics! You don't raise a son like Legolas by being unable to show love. *grins* I'm interested in hearing your opinion on his resolution and a certain confrontation with a fiercesome shild-maiden. Enjoy your evening. I'm going to write. Can't abide TV anymore...spoils good writing time. *grin* Thanks for all your encouragement and kind words. NiRi |
