One of my mates explained the Gimli and Legolas friendship thing to me yesterday. I haven't read the book for ages and I never remembered that part. But when he was telling me about the fact that Legolas refused to leave middle earth unless Gimli went with him I just went 'awwwwwwww'...it is kind of sweet. I can see why that pairing makes sense as far as canon goes.

But I still maintain that elf/dwarf is wrong.

Hmmmm...Legolas and Elrond...just makes me think of Elrond in the films, who I find kinda scary. Who are the twins? I'm sure I remember seeing fanart on DeviantArt of Legolas with a couple of uber-hot young elves...*drool*
