I first read this when I was a closet fanfiction reader, too shy to review but now I just had to drop in and tell you how much I enjoyed reading this again.

This was just lovely !You write Aragorn beautifully and make him so warm and caring.I love Aragorn and Faramir and Aragorn and pippin stories.I think he has more in common with Pippin than the other Hobbits as Pippin will one day be Thain of the Shire.Beautifully written !

An unusual and much needed additional scene prior to the coronation.
Pippin shows his new found maturity and certainly deserves to be a knight
of Gondor.

Aragorn shows his "quality" in reminding Pip that he's still his
friend Strider for a bit longer!

I really liked your story, especially the explanation of why Aragon held on to Boromir's vambraces.

Wow! What an amazing story! I absolutely loved it, you captured Pippin and Aragorn very well. I can't wait to read more of your writing!

Just wonderful. I had never thought of how confused Pippin might be about his standing since Denathor had released him from service. A very enjoyable read.

Author Reply: Well, I figured being released from service with the words "Go now and die in what way seems best to you..." might just make Pippin a tad stressed. Especially considering his need for reassurance from Aragorn in the book when they part from the King... Glad you enjoyed it...

What a sweet story! I love your Pippin and Aragorn, and the way they seem to understand one another. I'd also love to see another chapter (the knighting, and Pippin's thoughts during the crowning).

Author Reply: Glad you liked it, and saying "ACK!" at the realization that there might be another chapter to this one. (I'm currently trying to finish a totally different story...)

Oh, this is lovely. I always thought that Pippin would need some clarification from Aragorn and this clears things up nicely. Very sweet and touching with some great characterizations. I love the bit about Aragorn sprawling. :)

Author Reply: I am glad the characterization worked for readers. As for sprawling...well, I have to admit to having Viggo's image in my head as I wrote, and I could see him reverting to Ranger in unguarded moments.
