Louise, the last few chapters have been amazing!
Chapter 79 was just so special ...
I loved their little commitment ceremony, and to think that Ennis initiated it! :D
As I read their vows to each other, I was reminded of the scene in A Love Borne from Steel by our very own Leslie here, where Jack and Ennis were at the fair in Quanah and decided to buy each other rings, putting it on each other's hands and saying simply: "That's it". Seems very simple, but to them, it was like a wedding!
With Ennis saying: “To us. You belongin ta me, an me belongin ta you.” and Ellery replying: “To me belongin ta you, an you belongin ta me,” - they have essentially wed in my eyes!
Here's a toast to E & E: :-*

how very very sweet Lucise. I am glad the angst of the past two days led to some definite resolution and we can all breathe a momentary sigh of relief.

I see you figure out how to read the story while at work. :) I was wondering how come you can edit and post those pictures at work, but not reading the story.
I just cut and paste them in a Word document and pretent that I am working. :P Don't tell anyone, ok?

Hehe Jenny.
I dont edit most pictures at work, simply because I dont have my paint program here.
But other simpler stuff, I can do while at work.
Also, I choose not to read the E&E updates at work because I like to do that at home with a nice glass of wine! ;)
But today was different! It's been abit slow too! ;)

--- Quote from: MaineWriter on July 11, 2006, 05:51:30 pm ---Thanks for the great compliment, Milli, one of my favorite scenes in the whole story, to be honest. Just a few points of clarification...they didn't decide to buy the rings until after they were on their fingers...it was more of a spontaneous thing. And they each put their own ring on (ie, Jack put his on his own right hand ring finger). When Jack put his on, Ennis reached over and touched it and said "That's it," then Jack did the same thing for Ennis. If anyone feels like re-living this moment, here is the chapter:

Oh Leslie, I have the entire 'A Love Born from Steel' series printed out ;), so I can go back and read that chapter.
Thanks for correcting my mistakes there ... 8)
When I was reading Chapter 79, that scene came to mind!

Err..Louise, is the keyword there: momentary? :)
I am just happy to see Ellery calming down a little, although we all know he is not over it yet!
