This doesn’t sound like Legolas, or the Legolas we know as the elf who-lifts-my-eyebrow (heh heh, sorry, personal joke) he sounds a bit I dunno… too soap operaish dramatic to be the “let’s go find the sun” or “see how many Orcs I can kill with my super doper bow and **one** knife!” elf we know from Tolkien; so we get one OOC (NOT talking about Thrandy yet) either way, he doesn’t strike me as the kind of dude who grew up being raped and abused and Valar knows what else… and *please* take your time to ponder and wonder, rape isn’t something to be taken lightly, and elves are pretty darn sensitive about anything concerning sex. And yes, the common belief is that they die from being rape, and if Legolas’s life was hell as you describe it, his fae would have left for the halls all ready.
And you know, elves have a different approach on death then man… so it’s a bit.. extreme, IMO, that their reaction would be so harsh… and dumb, if I may say so, to hate the kid, if Thrandy is the one who after all had to support his wife and son’s fae during the pregnancy and all… (elf thing.. hard for me to explain, I’ve read the books in my native language which is not English so forgive me if it sounds a bit off)
Oy, why did you have to make Thrandy such a bastard? I dig the dude, he’s cool. he abandoned the pomp of Noldor-influenced Beleriand to live the simple elvish lifestyle of his Silvan people, he defends his kingdom without nooooo stinkin’ ring, he’s bl– al– always a plus, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand he’s secured enough in his masculinity (elf – masculinity?) to wear flowers on his head! Isn’t it awesome!? Ack, I love the dude, to tell you the truth… and I have no problem with what other people likes to read, but.. I think everyone would be more happy if you’ve made this story a little more…realistic, be more creative, make them act more elvish-like(speech and behavior is a bit off, IMO) and more plot! when was Legolas born? Are you going with the silly num number? Who was his mother? Sivan? Sindarin? Mary-Sue™? Don’t his brothers have anything better to do in their lives? Where are all the lovely wood elves? How come they name Thranduil their “greatest king”? stone walls echo around you know (scream inside a cave, it’s fun as hell) is Greenwood still Greenwood? The whole plot revolving around the rape abu abuse would is er-…
Please, rethink your approach on the rape issue, and the Thranduil i, an, and the OOC issue, and the-elves-who-hurts-their-kids-hey-that’s-AU! Issue .I think it would do you good if you’d read this: http://www.ansereg.com/what_tolkien_officially_said_abo.htm (what Tolkien said about sex) aaaaaaaand the “laws and customs” on the same site, y’know, learn a bit about them elves and their home life..and all.
This isn’t a flame, by the way, just my opinion. I actually believe people can write whatever they want, these are just my advices, you tak take them to heart or you can ask aff.net to bloke me from the review boards – I honestly don’t care.
Cha cha cha!

Hey-this is Orli's Lover (formerly known as Elf Girl Tati), I just read the chapter and I thought it was bloody brilliant (no pun intended). I hope you write more soon! I'll be waiting for it....and the chapter was good-not kidding. Nice job at your first shot at rape-made me feel REALLY bad for Legolas!!!! I can't believe he has to sleep of the floor after he got beaten AND raped like 3 times!!! Wow-such cruelty....Well-good job, keep it up!
Cheers!
Orli's Lover
