Well... I'm happy to see it end. LOL! Because for a while, I wanted to abandon the story because I have no idea how to end it. Hahaha! I'm glad I didn't though.

Hi Estelle! I've been reviewing on the MC list, but I decided to review the last chapter here.
Nice ending. I enjoyed the word play on the quote "To err is human, to forgive divine." I like the insight into the differences between elves and humans.
Also, I think Elladan and Elrohir might have had entirely too much fun with this situation, at Estel's expense. LOL. Estel and Legolas need to get them back at some point.
I really liked this story. Thanks for writing.

Hello there! Fancy seeing you here :D
I've got this quote "To err is human, to forgive divine" stuck in my head for so long. I'm glad I finally got it out and over with. Hahaha!
I do agree that the twins are having too much fun. Aragorn and Legolas should teach them a lesson some day. :P
Thanks for reviewing! It's much appreciated! *hugs*

I just love the last paragraph Estelle. It is great to feel the difference in the age and experience of the elves and the man just occasionally.
Author's reply
Legolas is just too forgiving :) I wonder if there's anything that would annoyed the 'leaf' out of him. LOL!!

Oh I loved this story, looked forward to it each day. Sorry to see it end, but I knew it had to at some point.
Thanks for a great journey!
Author's reply
Thanks for reviewing :D It took me forever to end it. LOL! For a moment I was planning on abandoning it :P

Poor Aragorn *and* Legolas!! Legolas to have to go through that particular treatment and for Aragorn to realize he had forgotten something so very important. I'm very happy everything is fine between the two of them though. That is...Until Legolas regains his strength that is. ;o)
Great story Estelle!!
Author's reply
I'm not sure what Legolas is planning to do after he regains his strength. Hehehe. He could be as bad as the twins *g*

Author's reply
You have my permission to maim him a little. But do leave some for the others. LOL!

Have waited anxiously to see what was wrong and now that Legolas is on the mend I guess I can relax now..... Unless you have something else in store?;-) I am enjoying reading your story.
Author's reply
You can relax now. Nothing bad will happen since the story is ending. LOL! I can be evil but decided not to. Besides, my muse is on strike. :P

Been with this story since the beginning ( sorry for not reviewing - I was a little worried about where it was going ^__^ ) But, it turns out, it looks like everything is going to be fine for our Prince.... Whew!!!!!! But, poor Aragorn is going to catch it from all three of his elves.... for a looooong time........
Author's reply
Thank you for reviewing then :D Yes, things are going to be fine... I think *g*

Ugh! I would not want to be Legolas! Think of the sore muscles. I am sure Aragorn will never forget Ick!
Author's reply
Oh, Aragorn will never forget this. I know the twins will never let him forget it. *g* And imagine what Elrond will say when he finds out. LOL!! He's gonna get an ear full. Hahaha!

· Chapter 4: Misdiagnosis
Oh, poor Estel. Not only is Legolas miserably uncomfortable because of his error, but he has to face the fact that his misdiagnosis put Legolas at risk of permanent disability.
I would not have thought that a plant could have such a poison in it, but of course they can. I tend to think of poisons in LOTR stories as something that orcs put on their blades and arrows to incapacitate their opponents, but the orcs must have gotten those drugs from somewhere -- presumably plants or animals.
Author's reply
I'm not sure about plants in middle earth but I know some plants on our planet are very poisonous and can kill if one accidentally ingested it. *shudders*

A thorn?! Not a splinter?
Why didn't I think of that...
Poor Aragorn. He must be miserable, thinking about his mistake.
Your stories are unpredictable--that's part of the reason why I like them so much. ;-P
Author's reply
LOL! I did not meant it to be unpredictable. But that worked out nicely too *g*

Author's reply
Perhaps it's not the splinter that you're suppose to hate... :D

The poor elf--nasty splinters are annoying! I hope he won't lose his finger over it...or will he?
Update soon--I love all your stories a lot!
Author's reply
Lose his finger? Noooo *eg* Of course not. I just posted chapter 3. :D You'll find out how stubborn an elf can get. *g*

I am enjoying this story a lot. We have a hurt elf and a worried ranger, what more could we ask for? I know something but I wont get it so I wont even ask.
Author's reply
Uhh... I hope it's not romance. LOL! I don't do romance especially slash. Eek!!

I like this so far...you've done a good job to show just how stubbord the elf can be, as well as Estel's depth of concern for his friend.
Author's reply
Thank you. Thank you. I'm being mean to the elf as always. Hahahaha.

I'm glad Aragorn finally understands Legolas' plight.Whatever can be wrong?
Author's reply
Oh, he has no idea what's happening to Legolas yet. *eg* Don't worry, the twins will not let him forget that. LOL!!

Uh oh...The hand is worse and now poor Aragorn is feeling guilty. Not a good combination. I only hope they get to Rivendell before something *else* happens. The twins surprising them is one thing, an Orc patrol when Legolas is in no condition to defend himself is another.
Looking forward to the next chapter!! :o)
Author's reply
Nothing else is gonna happen on their way back. I think they already have their hands full. LOL!!

Uh oh...Stubborn elf and stubborn Ranger. Not a good combination. This looks to be an interesting little story. I'd say I'm looking forward to the next chapter, but I think the Leggy-lasses might come after me w/arrows ready to fly from their bows if I did. ;o)
Author's reply
Yes, the stubborness and that darn elven pride is gonna kill him someday. LOL!

Thanks for reviewing :) I have a drabble which is an excerpt from this story if you're interested in reading. It's called "Forgiveness" :) But that will give you a little spoiler to later chapters. ;)

Hmm... I'm thinking something is seriously wrong with our elf. And he will get another lecture for hiding it from Aragorn. Hopefully his hand wont fall off.
Author's reply
His hand won't fall off. That would be a mean thing to do to an elf. LOL! But he'll not be happy for a while. Hee hee hee *eg*

Ouch. Poor Legolas. What happpened to him?
I also feel sorry for Aragorn. Truly, to err is human.
Is Imladris near?? I hope so for the sake of Legolas...LOL
Author's reply
Legolas' got a boo boo and Aragorn is having a time of his life teasing his friend. LOL! But how long is that going to last? That's for me to know and for you to find out ;)
