Interest in a Legolas/Gimli fest?

How many other people are having this problem where The Hobbit is mostly making them want more Legolas/Gimli?

Like, I think maybe a lot, because I’ve been getting waves of comments and kudos on the fic I wrote when I was a teenager which, in my 10-years-older eyes, is more generous than its quality deserves.

But it seems from a glance at AO3 that we’ve mostly seen a spike in Legolas/Gimli consumption without the corresponding spike in production. In fact, there’s been some, but the vast majority is in the form of spikes in Legolas/Gimli as a background pairing to (mostly Thorin/Bilbo).

I wonder if the level of interest would be enough to support a fest?

This post on Tumblr, where a few enthusiastic yeses have sprung up... not enough for a fest quite yet though I think (21).

I've never organized a fest! Anyone got any tips?

Yay. Hope you're better. Should be as it's been three weeks since your cold...!
