"'Eru is nice.'

'How do you know?'

He shrugged. 'I just know.' He jumped lightly down and skipped away."

D'aww. I wanna squish ickle!Aragorn, and is profound and adorable statements. Love the way you carry this kind of scene off, making it sweet but not goofy.

Author Reply: Thank you! I try not to let my little Estel stories bog down in treacle, so I appreciate your words immensely. :) And yes, I was definitely going for "profound" with this, working out in a drabble a trait of Aragorn's that's intrinsic to him alone, and present from the beginning, that of his 'estel'. Somehow he did "just know" and held onto that knowing through his entire life. No mean feat, that!

Indeed, the proper name for him. As young as he is, he already has that appreciation in the depths of his heart.

Author Reply: Thank you, Larner! Exactly what I was trying to show with this... how even at such a young age, he had an almost instinctive understanding of things of hope and faith. Thanks for the review!

"And a child shall lead them" Loved all of these, but the last one especially. Young!Aragorn is so adorably serious!

Author Reply: Thank you, bookworm! I'm glad you liked these. With that last one I was trying to convey how innate Aragorn's faith really was, showing itself even at a very young age. The quote you give suits it well!

You put a big grin on my face with this adorable scene.

Author Reply: Thank you, shirebound... I just love picturing Glorfindel with little Estel. :)
