This fic has both appealing slice-of-life details and the big question (or questions) in it...

Good to read your take on this!

Beautiful!!! Painful, but so so beautiful!  Elrond being left-handed was a lovely detail. 

He did not say whether they were still watching for someone to come to get them

Oof, but yes, it makes sense.  I really enjoyed the turmoil that Maglor feels about it, as if there really was no 'right' choice, only picking through various bad choices.

The comment that they weren't Amrod and Amras hit very deep.

This whole fic was just so well done!

I love this worn-down Maglor and worn-out Maedhros. And left-handed Elrond! What a lovely touch. And Finwean Elros, frowning. Did he say please? Oh, if it were only that simple. Wonderful world-building and moment-capturing, here. :)

There is a very effective weariness that comes through this, but not all hope is gone. 

Wow, I really enjoyed reading this story, both about their life as a “kidnap fam”, and the Big Question that had to be asked one day. The writing flowed pleasantly, and I liked the hopeful ending.
