I love this story! I am intrigued to find out who and what the beast is and I like your Glorfindel and Melpomaen pairing. And poor Erestor, can't wait to find out what torments him so.

Ai! Just finished Ch. 16. Always leaving us, just like Glorfindel, somewhat frustrated. It's been such fun following the story. I've been so busy, I haven't been on the computer in many days. I'm delighted to find you've been writing away.

Motorcycles, huh? What fun. I admit I'm not the risk-taker I once was, but my older brother has a couple of Harleys. he's given my and my oldest rides. I hope he brings it again. I find horses more thrilling, but as I said, folks tend not to let me on anymore. (Given my tendency to fall off. Well, you know it's hard to learn to ride when one is let on a horse only about once every nine years or so. I think that's been the average.)

What is going on with Erestor? I'm usually turned off by the twincest thing, but for you I'll keep reading. (Well, that is, for you and Glorfindel and Melpomaen, poor guy, ....)

Ah! Some passion! I can't write much except that I've caught up with you and again and thanks for the story. We've repaired the car, but now I have an extremely sick cat, who may be nearing the end of her life too soon (3 years old) due to a chronic health condition. Probably won't be back for a bit, but I'll check when I can. Escape is sometimes the only comfort we have, eh?

Ah, I thought you were skipping around in time and the beast carrying the twins was going to turn out to BE Erestor. I'm sure the beast has some bearing on the mystery, yes? Thank you for the chocolate and vanilla elves. I was dosing myself with chocolate as one of my worst vices, especially since I tend to get migraines if I have too much. I should have waited for your literary versions: much healthier for me.

The "gravelly injured" should be "gravely." Otherwise it sounds like he fell in the driveway. I myself fell off a horse into gravel once. I was kept home from school for some days and my nose was broken. I looked so bad that some of those days had to do with how I looked, not how I felt. Why my face was what I fell on, I can't remember. I lost some memory around that time. In fact, I assumed for years I had been unconscious, though my friend (whose horse I was riding) tells me that I had not lost consciousness.

I'm borrowing a car for now. Thanks for your good wishes.

I'm delighted to see how busy you've been. I am tied up in this story enough to mind that Glorfindel has not yet found Melpomaen to comfort him in some way. I really liked this part: "As the afternoon wore on, the increasingly frazzled seneschal found himself longing for the relative tranquility of say, a rampaging orc horde." I feel like that every single day. The trivial stresses of everyday life are so very wearing and unsatisfying. (For example, my car broke down for the third time in eleven days. I'd reallly rather be doing something dangerous and heroic rather than arranging for tow trucks and repairs. Give me a hoard of orcs anytime!)

Thanks for the story. I'm glad to see it moving apace.

Well! Thanks for the quick post! How kind of you to write back to me, and with "meldir" attached! Oh, to speak even two languages well! My Spanish is pathetic, just a school Spanish really, as I've never travelled to a Spanish-speaking country. I sure would love to.

Well, I'm delighted we have a couple here. At first I thought, noooo! Glorfindel is supposed to be with Erestor, but I think I can see where Erestor might end up. Melpomaen and Glorfindel can work for me. They seem very sweet together here. Yes, practice makes perfect, they say.

Looking forward to the next, meldir!

Oh good. Not everyone likes to be copyedited, though everyone, including myself, needs one, since we see what we meant to say rather than what is exactly on the page.

I user wish I spoke/wrote ANY other language as well as you write English! With a lot of pity on the part of my listeners, I might be able to negotiate my way around a Spanish-speaking country.

If you truly want corrections, I have a few: "toguether" is "together"; "certaintly is certainly" (no second "t"); and you don't use a period with an end quotation mark if you are using a "!" or "?" at the end of the sentence. For example, " . . . Lord Erestor was attacked?." is just ". . . Lord Erestor was attacked?"

Good chapter. I'm worried that those violet eyes are distracting our good Glorfindel from (I've been assuming) his love-to-be, Erestor. At the same time, it looks as though Melpomaen is in love with Erestor. Heartbreak wherever we turn!

This IS funny. That "I user wish . . ." is supposed to be: "I sure wish . . ." I'm so glad I mentioned that I need a copyeditor too! Now maybe I can be forgiven for not even rereading my post. Sorry!

I see you're on a roll.

I live in an imaginary world when I can get away with it. I'm pretending to be someone else, and working on the last "fic" in my head, which I run like a movie when I'm not having to actually do something. (Like just before I go to sleep.) I admire people who can find the time to set it down.

I wanted to ask if you minded an occasional proofreading kind of correction? In this sentence: "Glorfindel aquaised with a nod, relinquishing the advisor's body . . . " I think you mean "acquiesced"?

Is Erestor a werewolf of some kind? This is what I've been thinking. Of course, your fans are hoping for a cure.
