I can now announce that Chapter 14 - The Mirror of Galadriel is complete, and is even posted.
Hopefully less editing errors snuck through this time. _________________ That which does not kill me probably hurt like a sonuvabitch. |

Well, I'm a great fan of BOTH series, so I'm trying REALLY hard to get them BOTH right...I guess I'm doing okay at that. _________________ That which does not kill me probably hurt like a sonuvabitch. |

I'd certainly say so. I find it a most enjoyable read. _________________ "But the wildest of all the wild animals was the Cateagle. He walked by himself and all places were alike to him."

Yep - half of Boromir falls to the right, half to the left...
Amusingly enough, if you know the books well enough, you can guess who's in whose role. Other than the flipping obvious one (Harry is Frodo - DUH), anyone have the rest of them figured out? (Not that difficult, really - not too many choices.) _________________ That which does not kill me probably hurt like a sonuvabitch. |

Actually, I don't think it's quite that obvious, yet - though I do have my theories. As far as this chapter went (and the previous one, as well), Ron is taking the part of Samwise - the other one to look in the Mirror of Galadriel, and his reaction to the Lady (and other elves, for that matter). Overall, though, Hermione is far more Harry's emotional support, which is the other part Sam plays in the original.
Merry and Pippin I always found to be mostly interchangeable up to this point in the story (with the exception of dropping the stone into the well in Moria - which Ron did, making him "Pippin"), not really diverging from each other until they seperate after Rohan.
If I'm guessing right and you're casting Ron as Pippin, he'll be the one to accompany Gandalf the White to Gondor, and to pledge his service to Denethor - though I'd reverse that, personally. Draco seems far more likely to fit in at Gondor, with its more chivalrous outlook, while Ron would be more natural riding for Rohan - and attacking the Witch-King alongside Eowyn seems far more the sort of impulsive act that Ron would take than Draco. (Though if the lore about the Witch-King still holds true, it had best be Hermione fighting alongside Eowyn; either of the boys would be facing the likelihood of dying in that case.)
I know I've mentioned this to you before, but I still find it an intriguing notion: if Ron plays the part of Samwise, what is going to happen when Shelob comes into play? Could be a major character development point, I should think - or a rather impressive proving-out of Ron's new mithril wand...
Come to think of it, what happens if Draco takes the part of Sam at that pass? There's still the question of whether or not he can stand to take up the burden of the Ring a second time, after all... _________________ Galadrion - Member of the Longbottom 3. |

Well, here we go, finally. Not happy that this one took me four days to write - it shouldn't have.
Hopefully the next one will go faster. (BTW - the word count is up to just over 70,000 words. I probably won't break 75K by the 10th, but I'll be close!)
Edit: Caught a line that should have made it in, but didn't. The file has been changed and updated. _________________ That which does not kill me probably hurt like a sonuvabitch. |

Well, it turns out that the real 30 day limit was yesterday. I still had managed to get 75,000 words finished by midnight last night, although the chapter wasn't finished.
It is now.
Enjoy! _________________ That which does not kill me probably hurt like a sonuvabitch. |

I don't know whether or not I've bothered to mention it at all in the past few posts, but we are now up to Chapter 19 being posted.
You might want to read the New section on the kinsfire.com site as well - there's some news about the story there as well. (Nothing bad, so don't worry.) _________________ That which does not kill me probably hurt like a sonuvabitch. |
