MessageI have some afterthoughts and I'd like to share them with yout.Aearlinn is so full of things I'd like to point out because they are in some way extraordinary for me...I'll try to write it shorter and make less mistakes-it was all in haste,I'm sorry.
1.I think too that pregnancy is already stressful for Legolas and piercing him will be simply too much-it is not in his nature.However, maybe he'll learn to trust the twins more and some months after pregnancy he'll allow those leaves in navel.
And Elrond- I can think of two options. The first-it'll be a surprise for him but he'll soon forget about his anger because such little thing is incredibly sexy and the rest will do Leggy- he knows how to divert an august lord smilie OR it'll be a test for Elrond- can he leave all of the prejudices against Legolas and his bond with the twins and give proof of that unreserved love in allowing the little adornment...
2.Shorter- I promised but my thoughts aren't cooperating with that idea.Well,I'd like to say why I like Elrond/Legolas so much. The pair seems a match to me because of what you said-the young, charming and pure lover is doing miracles for an old, bored and troubled soul of high ruler. It is just the play of contrasts-and the contrasts are attracting each other in the beginning, in the end they are complementary... I also like the idea of the same begetting day-maybe you'll make some party on that day?
Well, I have more afterthoughts but maybe I' ll send them later?Long already...

Messageoh, Golden Dreams. i got mixed up. Yes that one is confusing and the next chapter clears most of it up. Basically, Legolas' mom drugged Elrond and sent him a tricky dream to see where his heart really lies.

i got side-tracked doing these other stories. I will get back to it soon.

oh, i love the jewelry and piercing smilie if those are foolish fantasies, then i am very very foolish too smilie i am just worried about Legolas going through it right now. Would Elrond allow it, knowing the Twins want it, or would he be threatened? The Twins want it, I am not sure if Legolas would. I have not made up my mind, so your support for it is appreciated. I want to do it but the question is the timing. do you think Legolas would be willing now, with the pregnancy advancing? I will think on it, too. If I can figure out a way that is believable to me, it shall be done. I love the idea of the little green leaves in the navel. need to go review my notes again. smilie

you have not messed anything up i am overjoyed with your thoughts and how much you love the characters. you said so many lovely things and gave me so many compliments I am overwhelmed and so happy. Next update is absolutely dedicated to you, my friend.

MessageI thank you so much that you appreciate my words!I just wanted to add ,that the scene with Arwen's spell is perfectly clear for me- it is just thechapter titled ,,Golden dreams" (which is the last) that got me confused because it begins and ends the same way and for me it is unfinished- ends so abruptly... And if the whole idea of jewllery doesn't suit you- don't worry! I said that those are my sometimes foolish fantasies. However, if you only give him that something from little, green leaves in navel- that would completely content me and probably won't hurt Legolas... Oh well, it's your story, I have already messed everything but that's my nature- I have to say everything that I think or I'll explode. Thank you again for enduring my talk and even more so for answering with so much care.

MessageGalad-in-elin, how could all these wonderful words you've given me be boring??? I am very grateful and am devouring every word. I didn't make it plain, Shadowess owns the Slashfiction.net site and that's why it's so neat you found me there, with the first person who showed me support.

well,that last update. I'll have to take a closer look. In truth it was probably more like two or three updates crammed together. Basically what is going on is Arwen comes home - so right away it is confusing because we moved backwards in time from the point where Elrond and Legolas are in the forest getting ready for the sylvan wedding. Arwen, jealous and upset because no one told her about the pregnancy, wants to get inside Legolas' mind and understand why he would do such an immoral thing.

she is thinking now like the others used to think, that he is using the pregnancy to force Elrond to marry him. So she makes this spell, with Mithrandir's help, and lives through those first few months of Legolas' captivity in Imladris. Mithrandir was there to protect Legolas from knowing someone was messing around in his past life, which would frighten him. This I wrote because people wanted to know how bad it was for Legolas. Me, not wanting to make the tale dark, left it all out from the beginning, starting the story after ten years had passed already.

I'm sorry it was confusing.If I get time I will see what I can do to make it better.

Thank you again! More Aearlinn soon (May) smilie

MessageGalad-in-elin: I do not know what to say smilie This is incredible. Thank you so much for this feedback. I will try to answer as best I can, but you have so many kind things my mind is reeling. To start: it is fantstic to me that you found me over on Slashfiction.net first, because it was on Shadowess' group, Legolas in Chains, that I posted my very first chapter of anything. That was a long time ago! But it pleases me that you love Aearlinn best and your reasons make me all warm and glad inside.

Yes, Olpathu was my idea. i guess i think about what that is like, to be able to live a waking dream that both refreshes the body and mind while permitting someone to carry on. So that is how I decided it would be for my elves. All the sylvan traditions and customs have been building in my mind over time.

As you can tell i love the Wood Elves and always felt their culture must be very different from other elves, especially Noldorin elves. On top of that, I was challenged by someone who prefers Elrond/Legolas,while to me it seemed an unlikely pairing, precisely because of those differences. Why would either one want the other, beyond base physical attraction? Voila! sylvan bond of extremity to the rescue. Now, how to make them fall in love? Well, make Legolas adorably fascinating to the old elf, of course, and so all those little quirks of his started to come forth.

Believe it or not, Aearlinn was originally a dark tale, but Feud had me so weighed down - continued

MessageWell, that was a nice cliff-hanger, wasn't it? smilie And you may be a wordy writer but I am a wordy reviewer! smilie
...and then I returned to Aearlinn. I thought:,,I may not like this story but the author had to work hard on it- it is long and wel-written. And if only beacuse of that, you should give it ago." And so I read it studiously, too studiously- so much that I've fallen in love with it. I have noticed little details that work well with the entirety, I found the doting attention of the writer who thinks before writes. I will always say: the smallest details decide on whether the fic is good or not good. And I'll tell you what it is: the interesting take on Olpathu (is it your idea?), the elvish words carefully used so that they really mean what they mean, and, which is my favourite- all the Silvan traditions! Ened ethuil, pole vaulting, quite erotic comb smilie , candied rose buds... And I like a little bit of humour you're inserting- like the Aragorn's incredulity about Legolas making frog noises and the serenity over the topic of the elves telling him about it.
I adore Legolas above everything and so I like it that you make Elrond still better and better (but still not good enough, well, here's my protectiveness over Leggy), that he found accord with the twins and that Erestor and Lindir (though I like them together and I laughed abot Erestor running naked) are not geting too much screen-time in the main story (I love it when there's much of Legolas). Just one more review

MessageWell, I promised to review only when I read all your stories but I truly couldn't hold myself. Besides, I have already written in your guestbook, so it doesn't matter so much now. Plus when I read Aearlinn I wanted to review right away and now I have enough time to write about this magnificent work of yours. So, here we go...

If I had to truly choose my favourite, it would be Aearlinn. Not that I don't like your other fics, which are otherwise great, but Aearlinn is for me something like first love- it is something always fresh snd new and you won't ever forget it. It is because it was your first story I have ever read, it is also because I stumbled upon it accidentally- I was frustrated and searching the Internet for some longer and not stupid, fluffy fic about Legolas/Elrond mpreg- sometimes I have need for such a thing and I couldn't find anything actually good which I haven't read yet. And then I found something on slashfiction.net. This something began with ,,Ai, Valar, it is HOT today"- interesting, I thought. I looked through the first chapter and found that it is not some second-rate scribbler's rubbish but nice written story- I will always praise your descriptions of nature,architecture,people and such. They are making the atmosphere without bpring reader- and that is an achievement of a good writer! So I thought reading Aearlinn for the first time but it wasn't love from first sight. I still wonder why but I abandoned your story. And then...Characters are ending!

MessageHi Pansy! thank you for following me here and so glad to see your favourite is Cuthenin, one of the one's i like best too. well, that is a major undertaking, rereading feud,and good timing as the next update is for feud and will be a long one. and you're right, i do give elrond a terrible time in almost every story where he is a major character. i'll have to do something about that.there is a story i began a long time ago and did not finish that gives him a better personality. thanks for your wonderful compliments!

Stef, those are such kind words and they lift me up.i thank you so much. sometimes i do forget. i love you guys bunches. stef, you are nothing less than amazing. smilie i hope many blessings find you and those in your life, for you are surely a blessing to me.

Messageyou know what Nietsche said:"when you look too long into the void, the void looks into you".
yes, immediate reality can be too hard and too ugly to look upon, but even if phisically distant we (your faithful readers and pen-friends) are no less real and we do love and care for you very much.
hugs!

How did you find me?Your directions
MessageThank you for directing me over here (I'm pansy chubb on ff.net). I just got finished rereading Feud. I enjoy how you write elves as elves and not just elegant humans. I must say you seem to have it in for Elrond, or at least enjoy taking him down a few pegs. smilie All your stories are hard to put down.
