Elf and Ranger Tales (Post-Quest)  by Legolass 17 Review(s)

That was incredibly entertaining, and very well-written. I love how you brought out the Ranger in Aragorn while contrasting his rough characteristics with Legolas' need for cleanness. It just shows how strong their friendship is if they can look past/put up with those contrasts.

I just can't get the image of Legolas shoveling rice into his mouth with his hands out of my head! Bahaha. Thank you for writing that.

We had as much fun writing it as you did reading it, telturwen! Thank you for sending in a response, and I hope you enjoy the sequel as well.

This was a delightfully amusing story and it is lovely to have a new story from you. I hope life is treating you well.

Well, life has its ups and downs, Linda, but I'm glad that I could write this. :-) Thanks for this review - it's great to hear from you again!

LOL! I loved this. The hot peppers in Aragorn's gravy was kind of a mean thing for Legolas to do, but it was quick and over in a few minutes. The torture Aragorn has in store for Legolas will last for weeks. Poor Leggy. Will he call a truce...or seek revenge?
More please.

Author Reply:
You're right, Beverly - the punishment for Legolas will last longer than the hotness on Aragorn's tongue did. I'm afraid there's no truce in sight though. The elf will just have to handle the twin spices as best as he can. :-)

I doubt there will be a sequel to this, but I do hope I can get down to other stories. How else can we keep sane till Dec 2012?!

Thanks very much for your review, Beverly!

Oh Mellon nin,
how wonderful to see you writing again. I suspect i'll be reading these stories quite a few times to get my fill until 2012. LOL

Will these two ever grow up! I guess not. Thank you for the lovely afternoon with my favorite elf and ranger. Athough I suspect Arwen will be ready to give them both a timeout by the time they arrive back to Gondor.

Do you *want* these two to grow up, Eliza? How else shall we keep our sanity till Dec 2012? :-) I think Arwen needs a little vacation when fanfic writers are at work.

It is SO good to write again - even a little - and to hear from friends like you. Thank you so much for writing in.

Hugs

LOL This was as delight and as funny as the first story, and it was great to see Aragorn getting back at Legolas.

So glad you sympathized with Aragorn and enjoyed his getting his little revenge. :-) Thank you for the review, Estelcontar!

Ah, even our beloved King Returned can be downright EVIL at times! Heh! Look forward to seeing how Legolas responds!

Author Reply:
Hahaha - Aragorn is certainly not faultless, as he admits! But how satisfying for him it must have been. :-)

I'm afraid there are no plans for follow-ups to these episodes at this point, but... you never know. Have fun imagining Legolas' horrifying experience in the meantime, Larner. :-) Thank you so much for reading and responding to this sequel.

Both of htese stories are really nicely done. Humor, cultural confusion and some good character development in each.....
Thanks so much for both of your work on these stories.

Thank you, Matt, for sharing our appreciation of "cultural confusion" as you so nicely put it. :-) Doubly fun to explore it when it involves beloved LOTR characters!

Aiii Legolass,

I've been kept so busy at work, I haven't looked into Arda for ages, and I would have missed this new story completely, if I had not had your note dropped into my nest - so big huge thank you from this rodent for both note and story. It was that hilarious, and also very realistic. I wouldn't have been able to resist trying that innocent pepper, as I have to try absolutely everything new in the food line. I remember still being in school, I had a chili pepper plant which was meant for decoration, not for eating, but we braved one another to eat some... frankly, it was hell. Tears flowed freely. So, my deepest sympathies to StarLight, Legolas and Aragorn (they are still friends, I hope?);-) and compliments for the wonderful story to you both!!

It's a long long wait for the Hobbit, is it not? Are there any rumours about Legolas and Aragorn being part of the script?

It's great to hear from you again! I may be off to Egypt soon for quite some time, but I will drop in again before that
till then
hugs
your rodent ever

My dear, dear Rodent!

I've missed you! *giant furry hug* My note said nothing about the story so I wonder how you knew it was here, but I am absolutely delighted to hear from you again nonetheless. I thought you'd be somewhere in Africa or Europe digging up delicious nuts. Hope you've been keeping well, my friend.

Starlight will read this review, and she'd want me to thank you for your sympathies. :-) We can also assure you that Legolas and Aragorn are very much friends still, and all 4 of us thank you for reading our story!

Yes, it's a long, torturous wait for The Hobbit. Unfortunately, there's been no further news about Aragorn and Legolas being in it, though I'm sure the producers know what we die-hard fans want. I wish Gandalf could cast a spell so that they could hear all our appeals and - oh well - threats. If I read more news, I'll let you know. Do drop me a line before you leave for Egypt, and I hope you can try and keep in touch even after, okay? Who knows - a new little story may just find its way to you. (Being ambitious, I am!)

Take care in Egypt.

Hugs
Legolass

Wow, it's been a long time since I last reviewed. How have you been?
I love this story, it's so funny and Legolas was so evil at the end, poor Aragorn LOL
There was one thing I noticed that seemed a little inconsistant but I can't remember it right now.
I'm still having problems with my computor, example: there seems to be certain pages which mess my comp up, this site doesn't fortunately. I need a new computor.
Anyway great Story, looking forward to some more...
You will have more right?
Oh by the way, I'm glad you're still writing
Talk to you later

Author Reply:
Hello, Tiari! Yes, I've missed hearing from you, so this review was very welcome. :-) I'm waaaay too tied up at/with work, otherwise there'd be another story from me by now. Sigh...

As for the inconsistency you noticed: actually, I'd long been aware of one myself but had been too lazy to fix it. I don't know if we're referring to the same mistake, but because you mentioned one, I went in and fixed the inconsistency I did notice anyway. *grin* It had to do with Legolas picking up the little pepper. ;-)

Hope your computer woes go away quickly. Thanks very much for checking in!

As someone who has just returned from India, I can fully appreciate this story. Indian hot food is hotter than british hot food, I stuck to korma from then on (which strangely was always green in India... not the funny yellow colour I'm used to)... anyway, enough about my eating habits.

A lovely little story.

Omigosh, SilverEagle. This response to your delightful review is WAAAAAAY overdue. *shakes head* I don't know HOW I could have overlooked this for so long and can only be thankful that I happened to check this site to see if I'd missed any reviews. My deepest, *spiciest* apologies, and you may feed me three little chillies as punishment!

You're right about Indian hot food being hotter than British (or American or Europen, etc.) hot food - and you're wise to stick to korma. :-) Try Jeera as well - it's very tasty without being murderous on an unaccustomed tongue!

Thanks very much for reading and sharing your thoughts.
