Adagio   by Rose Sared 36 Review(s)

I like Gleowyn, even if she is a klutz. And Gimli's so sweet to her. It was also touching to read about how Gimli was comforted by the plant Legolas gave him. That was a nice addition.

I hope there's more coming!

Gimli, accused of rape? How awful--the Rohirrim should know better, as Eomer found out how Legolas reacts to those who threaten Gimli. But Eomer's dead in your fic, of course. That's an interesting thing about this story so far--the dialogue is light and dryly witty, but because it's so late in Aragorn's reign there's an undercurrent of sadness with stuff like the sea-longing and Aragorn's age and the fact that Sam is gone and Rosie dead.

Oh, I like this! Great characterization of Legolas and Aragorn, interesting concept of "feast-day friends" (do not like Minuial. Do not like any girl who is mean to Legolas) and funny dialogue. Legolas and Gimli must make up, though!

And I like it how you don't shy away from the issue of Aragorn's age. He must be quite old 98 years into his reign.

I hope we see more of Tolman, too.

Heh...I love your sense of humor, and your characterization and dialogue are delightful! I can see it clearly as I read, thanks to your attention to detail. I can't wait for the next part...

This is lovely. I already love Tolman - the talented hobbit. And the idea of feast-day friends. And Gimli's embarrassment. And Aragorn with a sense of humour. Keep writing - I want to find out what happens next.

I can tell I'm going to enjoy this story. You have a lovely use of language and expression, and some wonderful OCs, not to say good characterisation of Legolas and Aragorn.

The 'feast-day friends' sounds rather interesting as well! Poor Gimli must have been rather shocked.
