Every bit of Bagginshield that you have written–ever–is my favorite. This chapter in particular was so fulfilling. It feels like they are beginning again, only now they are both aware of it. What a novelty! My other favorite thing is your unabridged Houses of Healing sequence. There is so much lovely snarky Aragorn in there, I was sad when the movies kind of glazed over it.

YESSSSSSS THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT I WAS INTENDING, OH MY GOD, I JUST PUNCHED THE AIR – THANK YOU, THANK YOU NONNIE, THANK YOU SO MUCH

Ahhhh, the Houses of Healing is such an awesome chapter too! I am so stoked you liked my spin on it! IORETH FTW. And snarky Aragorn! YUS. *dances* Thank you, Nonnie!

Well, I can finally say it, I got cast as Aragorn in the sansukhpodfic of determamfidd‘s amazing story! I feel like I should be giving an acceptance speech I am so happy. I really hadn’t expected to make it and I feel on top of the world. Drinks to celebrate?

KEN!!!

It is just so wonderful to have you on board! O mighty King of Arnor and Gondor, he of many many (many MANY MAAAAANY NAMES), welcome!

lotr meme: seven relationships [3/7] → The Three Hunters

“With hope or without hope we will follow the trail of our enemies. And woe to them, if we prove the swifter! We will make such a chase as shall be accounted a marvel among the Three Kindreds: Elves, Dwarves, and Men. Forth the Three Hunters!”

I know this is a small thing but I just want to say I love the amount of detail you put into the different fighting styles. Not just of each race by also individuals. I remember one scene where Thorin is watching the Fellowship in battle and comparing Gimli’s solidness to Legolas’ unearthly quickness, and even Boromir’s practiced forms to Aragorn’s blended style and my little nerd heart cried with joy. (The part where he judged Aragorn as the best swordsman he’d ever seen didn’t hurt either.)

*blushes* AHHH thank you so much, Nonnie. You are very kind!

I like the contrast of their fighting styles, so adapted to their lives and physicalities and, yeah! I don’t know a damned thing about actual expert-level sword or axe fighting, but gosh I like to watch it. 

boinkaboink marathon anon again: thandruil shows up at gondor like “BRING ME TO MY SON, PEASANTS” and Aragon’s like “uh you really don’t want me to do that. he’s kinda busy.” and Thandy’s like “what could he possibly be doing that is more important than seeing his father????” and Aragon kinda shifts awkwardly and goes “… getting married?” AND THE ELVES ALL FLIP THEIR SHIT

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA OH AWESOME THAT IS HILARIOUS PFFFT
