Chapter 19
I shouldn't do this so late at night. I seem to hit all the wrong buttons. If I knew how toete ete I would.
When I read the chapter title and summary it started getting really warm in here.
So they will have a truce for now. But not for long, just until Legolas learns the whole truth. "Erestor" has no idea why Legolas is full of contradictions about his sexuality. He has yet to have one loving relationship that has any meaning for him.
Not sure if he wants "Erestor" to see him in desire. Well we do. We want to see both of them in want and release and fulfillment and totally naked in the rain, dripping wet.
Seventeen years is a long time to wait for satisfaction.
Poor Legolas, "Erestor" can tell he's been so abused in every way and he is so afraid he won't be adequate. He also seems to have a masochistic leaning here. He has to be hurt when taken to get the full impact of release.
What a lovely erotic chapter. This makes up for lots of foreplay. Now I need a cold shower. giggle

Chapter 20
Now we have the real Erestor, he is not in a very good mood and who can blame him. Lousy weather, all alone, no chance with Legolas now that Elrond has taken over and got his mitts all over the fallen prince. To add insult to injury he has to listen while Legolas calls out his name in release and he doesn't even get to watch.
waysways like the forest and wood elves being in sync so your scene about the forest being glad that Legolas got some relief was a nice touch with Erestor getting a glimpse of Elrond and Legolas after the fact. At least he feels a little better now.
So Elrond brought gifts to Legolas. I wonder where that mithril ring was supposed to go? HMMM.
Elrond doesn't trEresErestor to keep his mouth shut. What an insult.
But now we get the truth. Elrond wants revenge on Thranduil through Legolas. This won't hurt Thranduil, only Legolas. He's got this celibacy thing still going on as far as I can remember. This is probably why Elrond put up with Ninglorien all these years. By having her spy on the king he got back at Thranduil. My he's going down on the nobility meter very fast here.
This was a nice telling chapter. The plot revs up a little here. giggle

Chapter 21
I hate humidity and sticky heat. I am sure Imladris doesn't have to suffer this kind of weather. That means that Elrond and Erestor are truly suffering. Good, I think they deserve to suffer.
Elrond is going ahead with his plan of revenge. Sigh.
Poor fragile Legolas. Erestor has a conscience. Good, let it ache like a bad tooth. Even he believes that Legolas might be Elrond's son and yet he didn't object to Elrond having sex with him.
So Legolas keeps a note. I doubt it is from his mother. She probably neveok tok the time to write him anything. I need to remember this for the future. I have learned that it might take you a lot of chapters to reveal something in particular but reveal it you do. It was sweet of Erestor to care about Legolas' privacy considering he takes every opportunity to paw him. A little late and not nearly enough but care he do I w I would like to see Erestor's picture also. Sounds delectable. Ah the hair bracelet, footlet, whatever. This definitely needs to be remembered for the future. Then Erestor sees the blood. I don't buy Elrond's story one little bit. He could have taught Legolas true, warm, gentle coupling but no he got a chance to fulfill some of his more base and darker desires and he took full advantage. I think Elrond has perfected the art of blaming others for his actions. You can't learn this too early.
Legolas, full of pain, fear and sorrow. Now even more because of Elrond's comment. None want me dead, but poor elf he is in such denial here. There are quite a few who want him dead but not Mithrandir. So now he has more pain, sorrow and fear. Rotten Elrond.
Maybe Erestor knows more that he realizes. Now that Elrond has joined with Legolas Tawar may indeed be watching him very carefully.
I enjoyed Erestor's mulling things over very much. Nice to see the differing personalities, wants, desires of both elves revealed even more. giggle

Chapter 22
Summary - Do they have anything in common. I would say a resounding no at this point.
The linkage to Tawar and the wood elves was just beautiful. I love the world you have created here. That was a lovely explanation of Legolas' being known to Tawar even before his birth. That Yavanna and Manwe deemed him to be TawarWaith. Being separate from all other elves by nature and nurture.
I thought Elrond g thr through Legolas' things was really tacky but then he is a Noldo spy despite his nobility and they have to do things like that.
No Legolas you shouldn't have given yourself to a Noldo spy but it has been seventeen years and you need to give yourself a break here. After all he did seduce you, with your approval of course.
So the scales have fallen from his eyes. Both Naneth and Malthen want him dead. They never loved him, just used him. More pain, sorrow and fear for himf hef he thought he was alone and bereft before what must he feel now.
Elrond lost. Good I hope he falls and breaks every bone in his body. Rats he figured oherehere Legolas is. At least he took food. His plans would fail if Legolas were to die.
As far as Elrond as a healer using his skills to harm what else is new here. Must not have a Hippocratic Oath in Middle Earth.
Ningloriel never really speaking of Legolas, and he never though of Legolas as real. Just something to manipulate. Well get in line Ed, td, this is how most elves seem to view him.
Now at the very end we have the commonalities. They both lost their first greagreat loves, lost their parents, as if Legolas ever had his, both were fostered out. After all these centuries the noble Lord of Imladris has found someone who understands. Sigh. This can't last.
This was a really great chapter. Moving the story along and revealing more of each character. giggle

Chapter 22
Not much to say about his chapter except why don't we all get together and beat Elrond senseless. Sounds good to me. Here he has a really sweet, gentle, kind elf who wants to reach out and care for Elrond's loss and pain and what does he get? A hissy fit from the Lord High and Mighty.
The elves are disgustingly proud sometimes and this has led to many bad things, like kinslaying, rape, torture and the destroying of whole cultures. I think Elrond just may have a touch too much of this pride. He may think himself so noble but his ignobility is breathtaking here. Not even Celebrian wouldp hip him deal with his pain but when he finds someone to help him he has to debase that one. Squicky.
So more pain, sorrow and fear for TawarWaith. He's beginning to feel something is wrong with him not with all these others who use and debase him. I know people who always choose the lousiest people to be with. Maybe he needs some therapy.
The nobility meter is in the minus for Elrond right now. giggle

Chapter 24
I am so screwing up the chapters here.
This was an exciting chapter. He bested the Nazgul and Sauron caused an earthquake. Wow. He even impressed the haughty Noldor.
But he got poisoned by the orcs. I liked it when he acted drunk and passed out. Also when he wouldn't "go" in front of the spies. He sounds like a petulant child.
So Erestor watched him bathe and eat while he was naked. I must admit I would have done the same thing given the chance.
I was so glad when he kicked Elrond. He may be an outcast and have problems with self esteem but he isn't a bug to be squished by these two.
As far as acting like an adult, I will listen to Elrond when he stops acting like a pig. They realize quickly enough that they must make nice with Legolas or he could lead them into orcs, orc traps or even the Nazgul. Don't make him angry, you won't like it when he gets angry. giggle

Chapter 17
Just the title of this chapter got me really interested. Big smile here.
Five years so close to Dol Guldur. It's amazing he is still sane. Maybe he isn't? So the orcs are smarter, is that an oxymoron, traitraiths are after him and some of the trees have turned against him. Not a pleasure trip at all for Legolas. It is very scary to think of what the Shadow does. They want to catch him and take him to Dol Guldur to their dungeons. Not good.
So he was on his way home to fulfill his ly tly thing and then had to rescue H & R from certain capture by bad guys. Then R disses the forest. Not a good idea at all and he learned. I liked the comment that Tawar doesn't serve Legolas he serves Tawar. And he tries to protect the trees even more by disposing of the orc bodies. I hope that will work.
Now we are on a road trip with two disgruntled and not very truthful elves. At least Legolas has them somewhat figured out and they have to make new plans, figure out new plausible lies to tell. He is pretty good at seeing through elves so we will see how good these new plans work out.
Well I don't know anyone who could keep their hands off the elf so I won't chastise R too much. At least we got a really erotic scene out of the deal. And R got a very sore stomach but it was almost worth it. If they had coninued to the end it would have been worth it. Now it is H's turn. If they had his best interests at heart that would be nice but they don't. Run, Legolas, run. giggle

Wow sealmoalmost inappropriate, and too weak, but I can't think of anything better at the moment. I think this is probably the best LOTR fanfiction I've ever read. Your descriptions are breathtaking and the storyline is heartrending. I am really impressed with how you've kept Legolas as a strong character intead of making his turn all weak and weepy like so many stories do. He has severe emotional pain, and it shows, but he's still tries to be strong and caring. This story makes me feel so much, it goes beyong stomach-clentching to rake at my heart. My favorite part was the realization that he so hates to cause discomfort to others, he will leave, or even suffer pain himself to keep others from hurting because of him. I find myself relating to him on so many levels. I also really enjoyed your lovely descriptions of the forest, and all its life. I feel like I am actually there with the trees and the wildlife.
You are an absolutely fantastic writer! Thank you for sharing it with us!
Please, sir, I want some more?

So Legolas has moved closer to Dol Guldur. What a Task he has set before him with that move.
The description of Legolas, half naked, hair all mussed, piercing blue eyes. Is it getting warm in here or is it just me?
That was a great shot for Legolas. Got his boot and missed his toes. He is getting lots of practice out there so close to evil.
I liked how the forest stills when Legolas gets upset. They are in such harmony now. And the elves H & R (sounds like H & R Block, they do taxes) shouldn't underestimate this feral elf. He has the moves.
They've found the orcs they were looking for. I am sure that they two of them were going to do so much damage. I would be amused by them also. Now we have a Wraith. In the books the Wraiths weren't worth much. They really couldn't do anything but scare people and force the orcs to fight. They were almost amusing sometimes. Fanfiction makes them much more scary.
So did TawarWaith give them a vision of the flet or does the forest guide them? I will have to remember this.
I don't blame the two for having libidinous feelings toward TawarWaith. Don't we all? Lonely, yes he would be and don't you take advantage of that. one one ever listens to me.
Now the forest makes a path. I wonder if the forest just does what the TawarWaith needs to have done. I like thinking about things like this.
I thought how you portrayed the battle from H & R's point of view was really good. They can just huddle in the rain and listen to what is going on and make good guesses but that is about it. Then the woods become more and more silent. That would be y toy to have to listen to.
No elven army caused all this damage. Nope just our handy dandy, highly motivated TawarWaith elf. Just think he has had to build more traps and flets and get all set up here in the south now. Far away from his home and Fearfaron. Lonely probably doesn't even begin to touch how he feels.
Here we have the two "see" Legolas. The forest must be doing this. It may be sorry and want to dump these two soon.
Well we got one pooped out elf on a flet. His poor scarred body. Sigh. I wonder how many decades it would take for those scars to disappear? The comment on his chest scar was sad. It had physically healed but his sould still bleeds. H being able to count and date the scars was interesting.
We got two horny old elves here and I liked that Legolas knew exactly what they were saying. Now we can add a third horny young elf. Good things are heating up. After seventeen years this celibacy stuff has to go. Legolas will go blind.
So glad that Legolas has them pretty well figured out. This is were I had them figured out also. He may not want to play but they have other ideas. He is such a sharp cookie and clever as all get out.
This was a very exciting and fast moving chapter. giggle

Chapter 14
A turn for the worse.
Infections, abscesses, unconscious, how gruesome. At least his eyes were still open at times. Poor Fearfaron having to haul a nearly dead elf around must have been tough. Then of course no one can help him. At least he won't get in trouble. He has to help Legolas fulfill his Tasks. He had to raft down the river that puts you to sleep. Yikes. No wonder he didn't want Legolas to fall in.
I think Lindcalon is cute. Boring old elves chattering about dull old politics and stuff. Now he and Legolas can talk about interesting stuff like archery and guard duty.
Now Gandalf's beginning to have doubts about Legolas' role in this messy battle. Murder will out and this could easily be murder but not by Legolas' hand. In fact Legolas waobabobably the murder victim to be and the elves who died the weapon.
Ah big news for gossipy elves. A Warrior's Release. Those gits. No one has ever realeased a fallen warrior before yet they insist Legolas has to do it. Of course what they really want is for Legolas to die. I think the woodland elves as a whole should get out of the gene pool. As you may be able to tell I am on Legolas' side 1000% here.
Poor Lindcalon. He would like his father released and in peace. I think that Legolas can do that. He has to lead a very sad life now in the stronghold. Sounds like he could easily become another Legolas. Redundant, unloved and unwanted. He could get offed really easy too. If it weren't for the men at the battle Legolas would be history.
Malthen the despicable is back. Aren't we thrilled. Wonder if Elrond got to him. Eerie music in the background.
I wish I could like Meril a little but I don't. She is a real problem. I think you write very complex characters and do a good job of it. Each one has their own agenda and actions. They don't seem cardboard characters at all. They seem real in most cases. Lousy, rotten, miserable excuses for elves but real.
So Malthen is off to the South since his deep dark secret remorse has been discovered by Fearfaron and guessed by Meril. I'm sure Thranduil has an inkling here about Malthen's breach of trust but since he wants Legolas dead he will just save that up and use it someday to harm Legolas to the max.
I liked Fearfaron's change. He stood up to Malthen, Meril and all the elves. Go Fearfaron. Kick elf bootie.
That was a nice scene with Malthen and Meril. You showed them up for the louses that they are. Hypocrites both. I say that with cheer because I am sure you have plans for them both. I would so like to have Meril up to her eyeballs in this big plan to off Legolas but alas I don't think so. She is just jockeying for the best position she can for herself. If that entails sficificing her son she will.
Satisfyingly despicable elves. Chortling with glee here. giggle
