@Alpha - I agree - for example many Georgians hate the Russians - having been at war with them within the last 5 years! But they have similar tastes.

I think the politics can definitely tip the balance, although perhaps not make the difference. I think Georgians like the Russian type of song, and vice versa, in spite of politics

Actually the voting is much less political than people say - I asked a bunch of Brit teenagers today and their 3 favourites were all in the top 6 - and they thought UK entry 'old'.

Reviewer: zeedrippyvessel Signed
Date: January 07, 2012 Title: Chapter 1: 1 Memories

I MUST apologize. I have watched this story go up and up and up somewhere else and was so wrapped up in my silly world and stuff.... I've not read it. The thought was always in the back of my mind... I REALLY need to read this someday. After all,, she is Rohirrim.

And we know I LOVE my Rohirrim. Adore them to the point of almost obsession.

so today, after taking TOO much cough syrup and now being as lethargic and limp as a wet dishrag, I decided - well what the heck?

I think I will enjoy and savor this one... once chapter at a time. This was a very enjoyable start...

Author's Response: I can't begin to tell you how thrilled I am to see a review from you. I must have spent a good 2 years reading fanfic before I decided to try my hand at it. I think I read every Legomance on the internet and then decided to give Haldir stories a try. And then I stumbled across yours on oeam and fell in love with your Empty Vessel story. It was one of only a few stories I read more than once. Bronwyn is one of my favorite ofc's of all time. It wasn't long after coming to the end of yours that I decided to try writing my own. Now I have 22 in all. I just have to tell you what a big influence you were for me. I'm afraid I've been just as guilty, seeing that you have a new story and being too wrapped up in my own to read. I too love the Rohirrim, my fav humans in ME. I will definitely have to find the time and set it aside to start on yours. I do hope you will enjoy Journey. It's not your typical ME tale and just about all of my characters are my own, with special appearances by certain canon. It is so nice to see a review from what I consider fanfic royalty, lol. Thanks and I hope to hear from you again.

I do believe I have developed a soft spot for old Alric.

Author's Response: Poor Alric, he tries to do the right things and he really loves Terrwyn as the daughter he never had. I think he feels he's honoring his deceased wife in a way. She would be proud to know that he took the young girl in and gave her a home.



Reviewer: zeedrippyvessel Signed

Nasty nasty men.

Author's Response: This is the moment that changes things for Terr. Her life is about to be flipped upside down.



Reviewer: zeedrippyvessel Signed
Date: January 12, 2012 Title: Chapter 5: 5 Escape

she's leaving behind probably the best thing that happened to her. Taldred is more than good man...

Author's Response: Taldred is very near and dear to my heart. Terr could have just settled. She knows he loves her and would take care of her, but she just couldn't live with that. Just as she feels there is someone out there for her, she knows there is someone for Taldred too. Unfornately, it's not her. But don't worry. Taldred will be fine. If I ever get enough time, I'd love to write a short story for him.



Reviewer: zeedrippyvessel Signed
Date: January 15, 2012 Title: Chapter 7: 7 The Firien Wood

I remember well my first kiss... under a rose covered arbor in a resturant garden. It was every bit as sweet.

Still holding a VERY soft spot for Taldred...

Author's Response: Aw, sounds very romantic. First kisses are so important arent's they. We never forget. Mine happened while vacationing with my parents, during a walk with a local boy. One kiss and then I was on my way back home. I'm glad I let Taldred be Terr's first. I knew he would make it very special for her.

Title: Return of The Key by curiouswombat
Rated: Teen [Reviews - 50]
Summary: The ancient mystical force of The Key finds its way back to its home dimension - unfortunately still in a human body, and suffocating under a pile of bodies in Middle Earth.

While Dawn comes to terms with her new surroundings, and the existence of elves, her sister is trying to get her back...

This is NOT a Tenth Walker fic, and NOT a Legomance. Some knowledge of Buffy the Vampire Slayer might be useful for this first story - but not essential.

Elroy.... lol!!! that ranks up there with Thran-drool (you'll see soon.)

I'm not up on my Buffy stuff. I might have to be.

Author's Response: I'm so glad you liked that line - it was one of my favourites when I wrote it! and Thran-drool sounds fascinating!



Reviewer: zeedrippyvessel Signed
Date: July 16, 2012 Title: Chapter 2: Chapter 2

No mirrors... NOT a good sign.

Yep. definitely see me digging out my Buffy vids.... AFTER I've gone through my Xena and Heracles vids... and McHale's navy... and watching DOOM for the 5th time.... this month...

Author's Response: Yay! How nice to see you reading. If you'd been beaten black and blue with extras I think they may keep you away from mirrors - at least for a while! A brief knowledge of Buffy helps - but not a deep one.

Date: January 15, 2012 Title: Chapter 11: Let not the sun go down upon your wrath

I will be very honest - I do not like Arwen here at all. I don't blame him for sending her elsewhere, as I'm finding her rather headstrong and obstinate at this point. Of course, that's just me... and I love dragons.

Author's Response:

Many thanks for your much appreciated review. Yes Arwen is being difficult atthe moment and this dragon is very lovable!

I loved this ENTIRE series and THIS made me sob. I love my HorseLords and it kills me (no pun intended) to know that while the Elves have pretty much immortality, Men do not. Death in its way, is a gift...

Thank you.

Author's Response: They now celebrate in the halls of their fathers! You and your love of the Rohirrim are responsible for planting the seedling that grew into this whole mess and has ensnared me totally! Elves...what elves? Thanks for the support and making me smile! ~G

What do I do now?” Gamling asked as he and Erkenbrand sat at a small table in his room.


Easy-peasy, my darling bonehead... KILL THE INNKEEPER!!!! Turn him loose in the polo field and go after him on horseback with cricket bats. Sell tickets and popcorn! JOILA! Rohirrim Golf!!!

(she thinks I jest!)

Author's Response: Oh I know better than to think you jest. it is sporting game, but not for the inn Keeper...no, I have other plans for him and the Ladies of the Tavern! Anyway, once Erkenbrand hit him, it would be over as the Keeper would "poof" into oblivion due to our dear Rider's shear strength...*sigh* oh what a man...



Reviewer: zeedrippyvessel Signed
Date: April 28, 2012 Title: Chapter 11: Chapter 11 New Beginnings

I still think a round of Rohirrim Golf would have been more sporting.

Now, I need to take a bath! Where is my Horse Lord.....

Author's Response: Okay, fine! He can die by Rohirrim Golf! I'll even sell popcorn! As for where you Horse Lord is...I'll send him right back! *wink*



Reviewer: zeedrippyvessel Signed
Date: May 01, 2012 Title: Chapter 12: Chapter 12 It Started with a Bath...

This is absolutely one of the sweetest love scenes I've read. Ever. Good job.

Author's Response: Thank you! That means a lot as I really think you write some of the most realistic stuff out there--no manby flamby stuff...you write what is real: the good the bad the ugly the tender...inspirational for sure.

Ah yes. Rohirrim golf with the captain.

Poor Gamling and little Gwendel. I'd take them both home and feed. Nasty apples... where is that captain's silly brain...

Author's Response: Clearly up his....you get the picture and by the end (or rather the middle) I do not think you will feel quite the same about the Captain...

GO THEODAN!!! Time to kick some Wulfhere butt! ROHIRRIM GOLF!!!!

Author's Response: You know what I was thinking of as Theoden was talking to Gamling and pointing? The scene in TTT when he asks (and answers) Aragorn "Who will come..." He almost lets his temper go then pulls back and replies more civily, "we are not so lucky as you..." Wulfhere? cau you say, "karma"?

AH! Elfhelm. Love Elfhelm. Almost as much as I love Gamling, who now has gone through too much.

Author's Response: Yah, not sure how I stumbled upon him---OH YAH~looking for Gamling images come to think of it. Then combed through the movies to see if he made the cut (and he did); then it was teddy bear love! I regret to inform you that I am not through with Gamling...though some lessons he has yet to learn will be more...pleasant.
