Tag: sansukh reactions

Hi! So I just wanted to let you know that I read Sansukh in around 36 hours and it made my life. I have smiled to split my face, laughed out loud, flailed, and ugly cried all in hours of each other, and that’s all thanks to your wonderful writing. I think I actually broke with the teaching scene. I don’t really get into fic as much anymore, but you changed that and I just wanted to stop by and say thank you for that. You (and the appendices authors) are absolutely amazing. ❤ Have a wonderful ❤

I just need to hunt you down so I can hug you for 800000 million years 

or so

*HUGGGGGGGS*

honestly Nonnie – thank you SO SO much. This was an amazing thing to hear, I ended up with my torso flopped over my own legs and whining high in my throat because I can’t put together how EPICALLY LOVELY YOU ARE

I am so glad you like it, so glad you enjoyed it so much, thank you SO much, and I agree that the Appendices Authors (we sound like a band lmao) are INCREDIMAZING

and I am super super curious about which teaching scene now, bc there are a few…!

(ALSO – 36 HOURS, WHOA. YOU ARE AMAZING)

Hi! Who’s your favourite LOTR character? <3

estel-of-the-eyrie:

…. This is so difficult; I KNEW someone was going to ask this one! But I love thinking about this, so here we go:

first thought? Aragorn. (I may or may not have a type with dark haired men with stubble who are sassy…) He was perhaps the first character that I appreciated and respected when I watched for the first time.

Second thought? Boromir. Initially, naive me hated him – and I can’t believe I ever did. True, this was because I hadn’t really looked into the books and the background of his character before I was 13-ish? But now? I will defend my Gondorian Son with my LIFE. There’s a whole lot more here, and I would rant (which someone is also able to ask me about) Plus I feel like I have a bit in common with him, and tbh he’s probably inspired personality etc.

Honourable mentions: Eowyn and Haleth (from the Silmarillion) – badass women who inspired me to not take shit that I don’t have to; Gimli – strong and dedicated companion and one of the main reasons that I take more steadfast ways of dealing with everything (This may or may not be why the title for When The Road Darkens is what it is…)

Oh shit. I’ve picked 4 human characters and 1 from the other races?
Rosie Cotton! Esp. her portrayal in @determamfidd ’s Sansukh (especially in the Scouring of the Shire – “Brave and Clever” and I am quoting here!) Also Sam Gamgee for pretty much the same reasons.

Elves? Idk I don’t really have strong feelings towards any? I mean I appreciate Legolas and Thranduil and Galadriel, but. I just feel detached from them all so it’s kind of more difficult to relate to them. Ah well.

~*~

I’m bored, so ask me a question – any question! – to distract me from revision!

ESTEL AAAA THANK YOU!! *hugs and snugs* you delight, I am so HAPPY you like what I did with her!!

A different one. I finished the one I spoke about before (or, well, finished what there was. I laughed, I cried, i swore, I still haven’t forgiven @jeza-red for bringing this amazing epic into my life and fucking me all up.) And then moved on to, uh, reading every Legolas/Gimli fic that caught my eye on ao3. …*coughs* and have since branched out into actual The Hobbit fic.

This is basically how I spend my not writing time now: readingHobbit fic.

;] no problem, always willing to help :0

Ruined my life. I have not only accepted it as the canon behind the canon, I sometimes read other fic and find myself thinking “But wait, what about…wait no, that’s not a real character.” Or “Wait, the dwarf ghosts aren’t a thing…”

This is what you have exposed me to. Something so good I get confused about what is and isn’t real!!

I have accepted it as a canon and a Bible and Tolkien can come and tell me off himself, but I will never not consider it an “and after the things were better in a sense that they died” TAT

Not to mention, Determamfidd is an amazing person and should be preserved. There’s no fail with this story, only wins all overTAT

omg jeza ❤ ❤ ❤

thank you!!!!

Your work is amazing and has gotten me to pull myself out of my no reading strike (except it wasn’t really a strike- just haven’t been reading). Anyhow, your story telling is phenomenal, and the characterisation is so good, that when reading quotes of dialogue to a friend who hasn’t read sansukh yet, she got quite a large amount right! Carry on the good work, but do the push yourself too hard. The only thing I ask of you is a sprinkle of more Glorfindel 😉.

Oh wow…! Thank you, friend – I am so so stoked to hear that! Seriously, consistent characterisation and character growth is an obsession with me, so you’ve made me SO grateful to hear that! And HI TO YOUR FRIEND TOO, thank you so much, and my thanks to them as well!

(Oh, we are getting more Glorfindel! He’s turning up again, heheheh)

I have been working up the courage and trying to find the right words to properly describe what you and Sansukh have grown to mean to me and I have totally failed in finding words beautiful and fitting enough for you and this amazing work. I have been staying up to ridiculous hours in the morning reading this beautiful piece of art. I can’t tell you how much it has meant to my life. I used to be ashamed that I was in fandoms but now I’m practically bursting with pride at my nerdiness. Thank you

*hugs very tight*

Nonnie, it has been my honour and my pleasure. And thank YOU for being a part of it all, and sharing your generosity and joy and enthusiasm with me. I’m proud, too. *hugs again*

I think the last anon just explained to me why I love sansukh and why I will carry it in my heart, like no other fanfiction every will: There is so much healing. You send hope out into the world.

oh my…

wow. just. oh my absolute wow.

I had a whole lengthy and very personal sort of answer here and it’s just not even enough so I deleted it – even with all that context, even trying to say WHY it means so much, I still can’t put into words how much this affected me. 

I am honestly and ridiculously happy. And just so grateful. SO GRATEFUL That’s just the best thing ever to hear, and thank you SO much. SO much.
