What a lovely set of drabbles!  These hang together like jewels threaded for a necklace - carefully crafted individually, but working together as a whole.  It's also more than evident that you take great care in your word choices, which is absolutely vital for a good drabble.  And that's what each of these are: good drabbles.  That is no mean feat.  I think drabbles are the most difficult writing form out there, and here you have provided insight into the characters, again, not at all easy in a short form.  Really love your characterization of Elrond!

 

Oh, what a wonderful review! *blushes* Thank you so much, you absolutely made my day - and gave me quite a motivation boost, too, particularly to not put my drabbles so far down on my to-do-list.

As you very likely know, the drabbles for this challenge are usually written by prompts one didn't know beforehand, so making them sit well together is an extra challenge. I don't always manage to answer to the prompts right away but did with this set, so I'm very pleased they work together not only in my own perception.

Judging them to be good drabbles is the best compliment you could have made me, since writing them at all in English is difficult enough for me. Getting concent, prompt, characterisation, language and grammar together and end up with 100 words is no mean feat and wouldn't be possible without my awesome beta.
