The Great Escape  by jenolas 6 Review(s)

Ooooooohhhhh! A party! A skin of wine (or 2..or 3), a loaf of bread (or in this case, cheese and dried fruits) and just about every male elf in Minas Tirith! Sounds like fun! :-) But, poor Lindir! Bless his heart, so polite and helpful...of course, he'll be the only one not in trouble with Arwen later!
I found the disagreement between Glorfindel and Erestor very interesting...Glorfindel always is so lighthearted, but he can still be offended by a friend. Liked the race, tho'...a good wager is always curative for the tender male ego! *vbg* So, a bunch of elves and a lot of the King's best wine....do update soon!

I just love the runaway elves. Typical males, dodging all the work of a wedding!

Author Reply: Yes, ask them to take care of a stray orc or two and there's no problem, but ask for a little help in the sewing room and they vanish!

A very entertaining chapter1 This story could go in so many different direction that I don't dare speculate what might happen next and am looking forward to the next chapter.

Ah, mischievous Elves!

Mischievous, gorgeous, male Elves!

Mischievous, gorgeous, hunky male Elves playing hooky!

Mischievous, gorgeous, hunky male Elves playing hooky and meeting up with even more mischievous, gorgeous, hunky male Elves to eat, drink, be merry, and get all sweaty while they spar and race each other!

Rivers of flowing Elven testosterone! YESSSS!

Great story! (Pardon me while I wipe the drool off my keyboard...)

Oh no! Poor Lindir! For some reason, me shouting “Run, Lindir, run” just didn’t work…

That’s some list of elves who have ‘disappeared’. If I were Arwen, I’d be getting a little paranoid. Where’s Celeborn? He’s not gone too, is he??! I wouldn’t be at all surprised either if that meeting between Elrond, Aragorn and Gandalf was taking place somewhere far outside the gates of the city…;)

Elladan and Elrohir obviously find the idea of Glorfindel in a veil utterly amusing! But then, who wouldn’t? I like that Legolas reminds them of their need for weapons. I thought it served as a great way to bring us back to reality for a moment and as a reminder of the times in which they now live.

Btw, Erestor in knee-length riding boots?? Yummy...

Oh, I hadn’t realised that Glorfindel might be offended by Erestor’s words. I suppose that his reputation for mischief could lead people not to take him seriously and I can see how that would hurt. I’m glad Erestor let him now how much it meant to him to be taken on this little adventure. Even though it sounds like he’ll have to be the one to explain to Arwen!

Ah, so they found Haldir & co. Not to mention the wine. I can’t even imagine where this will lead to! Bring on the next chapter!:)


Author Reply: As the author, I allowed myself a small indulgence..(Erestor is my eye candy).

The males really do seem to be taking to the hills here. They'd better watch how much wine they drink, because if they come back drunk, Arwen will really be peeved!

Author Reply: I know, but I wonder if they realise it?
