Ehehe. This made me laugh :D

[sasha_honeypalm]

Thank you.

[keiliss]

Yes, I'll buy that. It solidly beats my guess which was 'Oh f**k, not you again' Nice :D

[sasha_honeypalm]

Thank you.

[octopus_fool]

XDXDXD This so would have happened!

[sasha_honeypalm]

Thank you. If it wouldn't it should have.

*half dead of LOLS*

(Why is wing fic crossed out?)

A Glorfindel, indeed...and yet it was Ecthelion who slew the Lord of Balrogs. Wonder why they didn't send *him* back?

Anyway, love this!

[sasha_honeypalm]

Thank you.

(Why is wing fic crossed out?)

Because I didn't actually end up mentioning wings anywhere. But it's a legit MPTT category, so it was too funny not to use.

[zdenka]

LOL! I like your take on it.

[mirkyking]

*Giggles* At least the Balrog took out some orcs in it's wake😅

[sasha_honeypalm]

Thank you.

*snort* The chuckles-per-word-of-fic ratio for this ficlet was much higher than for most fics I read. :-)

[sasha_honeypalm]

Aw, thanks.

[mybluerose]

you made me snort hot tea... it burns... like a balrog!

[sasha_honeypalm]

*solemnly* I suggest applying a soothing Glorfindel to your burns. Or an Ecthelion, if your CVS carries them.

[shirebound]

Bwahahaha!

[sasha_honeypalm]

Thank you.

[bunn]

OK, the crossed out wing-fic made me laugh, almost more than the terrified Balrog!

[sasha_honeypalm]

When I saw "wing-fic" on the list of Offical MPTT Genres, I couldn't resist.

[erulissedances]

Thank you.

[hhimring]

That's an excellent (non-)wing fic!
I enjoyed the Balrog's shriek and reaction.

[sasha_honeypalm]

Thank you.

You'd shriek too if you ran into a legendary horror from the First Age. ;)

*cackles!* :D

Thank you!
