Lord of the Rings: Untying Knots by Keelywolfe
Untying Knots (Legolas/Gimli | G | 933 words) is a short interlude with Legolas combing Gimli's hair. It's sweet and makes me go, "Aww," so I like it. The language is very pretty too, and you can see that Legolas and Gimli's friendship is still new and fragile.
Excerpt:
"If you are trying to knot your hair into a mass of tangles," Legolas said finally, "then you are doing it nicely. If that is how you always comb your hair then I should think it would be nothing but a mass of knots and snarls, a soft nest just waiting to make a home for a rat."
Gimli stiffened visibly as he whirled to see his unexpected visitor. "Just because Dwarves don't see the need to bathe every time we wipe our arse doesn't meant that..." he began, but a soft laugh from Legolas halted his angry flow of words.
"Must you take insult to any words that pass my lips?" Legolas teased softly. He sighed as the frown remained stubbornly on Gimli's lips. "My pardon, then. I meant no insult."
