Has Gimizh ever stolen any of Dain’s clothes? Or Dis’?

I don’t think he’d steal from Dain’s – not for lack of trying… it’s only that Dain’s apartments were guarded. He’s the King. 

It was probably a thing, a final test for elite guards like jeri. Keep Gimizh out of the King’s Apartments, and you’ve leapt the last hurdle. 🙂

(he has absolutely NOT stolen Dis’. At all. NOPE. He’ll go steal Mizim’s instead – she’s a lot less terrifying.)

Laerophen and his small posse of curious dwarflings. He’s very patient, and more than a little freaked out about being (even nominally) in charge of the smols.

‘who in the hell thought it was a good idea to leave me in charge, i have no idea what i am dooooooing, dear Elbereth they are STICKY urgh, Legolas was never sticky, perhaps if i sit very still and don’t make any sudden movements maybe then they’ll amuse themselves, oh god is one eating my hair…?’

LotR was my first fandom and I haven’t been properly part of it for many years now — but your recent chapters, and in particular the one you just published, have reminded me of why I joined in the first place. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful writing with us <3

oh gosh. 

*gawks*

This is… absolutely one of the most touching and humbling and AMAZING things I have ever read. I can’t actually process that. I am so grateful. So SO grateful. I love this world, so very much, and I’m glad you do too. 

*hugs* Thank you, with all my heart.

(I AM HONESTLY SCREAMING ON THE INSIDE holy moly…!)

Do you do NaNoWriMo? Lovely new chapter.

Thank you so much!

Nope, I don’t. It’s not that I wouldn’t like to, one day. It’s that I know my own “””SCHEDULE””” (she says sarcastically, heh). I couldn’t guarantee that I would keep to the 50K wordcount deadline. 

I mean, I can pump out 10K in a couple of days, if I am in a good headspace and if I have the time. If I am in a good headspace!

(if I’m down, lol no)

It’s coming up to the end of the school year here in Australia, and I am a teacher. I am NOT going to have the time, sadly. So, for the meanwhile I will I just putter along at my own stop-start speed!

So, I’m rereading sansukh, and I just have to say, screw you for the iron hills song. I hate it so much cuz I cry every time, but it is so beautiful! You are amazing and wonderful and I love you! Never stop writing, cuz you’re fantastic at it. <3<3<3
