Holy heck, this is so amazingly creative and well-written! I don't even really *like* zombines but this gripped me from the beginning and I love seeing all the various character interactions (particularly of characters we wouldn't see interacting otherwise). And so many of my favourite lady characters, too, from Idril to Nellas to Luthien. I'll have to check out your other fics soon while I wait for the other parts you mentioned. :)
