I meant to read this when it was first posted but Life was insane for me then and I wasn't reading anything except what had to be read. I'm glad I got to come back to it. :) I thought you did well with the slightly apprehensive feel of the magic, threaded through with such delicious eroticism. This made me want to see more of these two, of Galadriel's learning from Melian especially.

Thanks, Dawn! I'll admit that I eeped a little bit seeing your review come into my inbox, since very little thought went into the story. As mentioned in the story notes, it was an impromptu thing over a complaint that there wasn't a lot of Galadriel/Melian fic, and the friend I wrote it for so aptly described it as "booty call Maiar style", which fits perfectly. :^D So I'm very happy you liked it anyway, and who knows - if I ever manage to catch Melian again (she's elusive), this might as well become a series of little vignettes, because the pairing does hold a some appeal to me and for the simple fact that there needs to be more femslash, damnit. ;)
