I just wanted to say I've been reading (alive : Fili Durin.).
And it is one of the most beautiful fan fictions I've read. I cried and sobbed when I read kili and thorin died (even after watching the movies), and the filis proposal was absolutely adorable. I loved this book, and it has become a comfort read for me. I've been rereading it nonstop.
Thank you for writing this it has brought so much joy to me and others who have read it.
I hope one day you'll continue this Hobbie as you mentioned you were studying to be a nurse. (Awesomesauce of you)
I hope to put in a request that will probably never happen, but I'd still put out there if you ever get inspired and am comfortable with it, of course.
But I was hoping for a bard and oc fanficton.
For I think he deserves it as much as fili kili and thorin.
Again, thank you for this amazing book.
