Approaching Rivendell by Ysilme

Fanwork Notes

A take on the 100 drabble challenge in the Tolkienverse. I'm doing this just on my own outside any challenge community, though I took the liberty of using the prompt table of fanfic100 at livejournal.

The drabbles all have an exact word count of 100 as by my Apache OpenOffice (German edition) / Scrivener edition.

Disclaimer: Middle-Earth belongs to Tolkien. I'm just borrowing it to have a bit of fun.

Many thanks to curiouswombat and shadowycat for looking these over! Any remaining mistakes are my own.

I've never been spoilt with reviews; every single one is precious to me. ;o) So thank you even more for reviewing each single drabble so far!

Indeed, he would. Elrond is such a multi-layered personality in my mind, with the inquenchable thirst for knowledge forming an important part of his personality.

 

And another favourite! What I love a lot about this drabble series is the amount of facets that you are managing to give Elrond - we know he is a great healer, but somehow (for me) this drabble shifts everything into the right focus. Wonderfully done, again. I'll keep my eye on this drabble series!

I like this! You really capture a lot of different moods for Elrond, and in only a few words. I like how the drabbles are getting happier as this goes on...it usually happens the other way!

I especially liked A New Home. Elrond's a true loremaster, finding useful knowledge and excitement in any situation, haha.
