It's such a nice respite from the usual fare to have a Gondolin fic that is so light-hearted, so utterly sweet, and so deliciously devoid of even the merest whiff of angst! Thank you so much for giving these two a hearty and wholesome romp!

That said, I quite liked that Maeglin was the culprit... despite the innocence of his actions, it does sort of lay the groundwork for the development of a more devious persona later on, doesn't it? Well played!

I'm also delighted that Ecthelion was able to see through Glorfindel's ruse before Glorfindel had to own up. I'm glad he can see what a wonderful treasure is his for the taking!

I'm sorry it took me so desperately long to read this... this hasn't been quite the season I anticipated for a number of reasons, and many factors have converged which have either robbed me of time, or robbed me of motivation, to stay on track with LJ. Hopefully spring will see engergies, inspirations and aspirations returned, along with a more timely participation with friends both online and off. :/

That said, your Yuletide offering has aged quite well, and was just as delectable as an early spring treat!
