This was great!

This fic is as well-executed as the rescue story it depicts. Clean and impeccable, written in sure, bold strokes. Great attention to detail and characterization. Thank you for sharing your work :)

:) love

*stare in awe*.. that was... .. go.. a majestic journey..

you are beyond talented lady..

I love this. Wonderful job.

glad he could rescue him from whoever they were...

Please, please, please write a sequel to this one telling of the reason why those men were out to get Legolas. That would be sooo wonderful. You are definitely one of the best authors I've ever come across. Thank you ever so much for all your generous postings. Elen sila lumen omentielvo indeed - for me, at least. :)

Nice work! Just thought this deserved a review! It's always nice to read a fic about Aragorn being a badass, but this took it to the next level. I loved all the calculations, both as a healer and a ranger, and how Aragorn has that rule against killing children. The thing about the the neck vertebrae numbered in Quenya because the are high, nice touch. The emotions in this otherwise straight-forward rescue piece are brilliant and I also loved the way Aragorn saw Legolas, thought about the trust that was there. All in all, beautiful writing.

excellent rescue and Aragorn fic...plus liked the darker tone and the emotion hidden there

this story is awesome ! thank you so much to have write it !

Thank you for this delicious section!

This was wonderfully done. The prose. The action. The flow. The setting. All of it. It was visual and engaging, drawing on the themes of friendship and struggle, honor and perspective, subtle where it needed to be and overt where it didn't. I love this portrayal of Aragorn. Somehow showing him simultaneously as ranger, chieftain, and king, through his actions and words, even if he does not fully realize his true worth and ability as the latter. The carefully chosen dialog... The trust portrayed in the friendship... Wonderful short tale.

Great characterisations, and I loved hearing Aragorn's strategic thoughts and healer mantras running through his mind all the time he was rescuing Legolas. This was very well written and totally in canon, I really liked it.

ooohhh!

This is brilliant. I love the symmetry of this piece from beginning to end. I love Aragorn's practiced, urgent efficiency mingled with caution in the rescue, love how a part of his mind automatically supplies him with medical terminology and treatment for injury. I love that Legolas has such unwavering trust in Aragorn, and that Aragorn is terrified by it, and yet the trust/belief in one another is obviously unwavering on Aragorn's part, too. I love that, as you say, this is a rescue mission that "for once, goes off without a hitch." Thanks for telling a great story. Bookmarking so I can come back and read it again and again.
