| Baggins! by Grey Wonderer | 10 Review(s) |
|---|---|
| Larner | Reviewed Chapter: 1 on 9/22/2008 |
| Ah, been a good time since I read this one--definitely worth another read. Ah, Bilbo, you devious soul, you! Author Reply: It would have been very difficult to get something over on Bilbo by this point. Spending time with Wizards, Elves, and Dwarves probably put him way ahead. That and just the fact that he is Bilbo Baggins. | |

| LOL! Hilarious! And I agree with Larner-if you haven't, you should read Primsong's "Nothing of Note," a regular Bilbo-gem. God bless, Galadriel Author Reply: I have meant to read that ever since Larner first suggested it to me but I had forgotten about it until your review. I will have to mark that down to read as soon as I can. I just adore Bilbo. Thank you for reading this! | |

| Oh, hilarious, GW. Have you read Primsong's Nothing of Note? You will love it, and love seeing Bilbo doing all kinds of wonderful things to promote his own legend. Author Reply: No, I haven't read it but I will have to now. Sounds as if I will enjoy it. Glad you enjoyed this and thanks for reading! | |

| "but Frodo and I need to purchase some shovels and maybe a pick axe." This was great! I laughed out loud at the picture of Frodo watching Bilbo help to spread the rumors! Great story and when Bilbo told them they needed shovels, I almost cried:) Excellent as always! Author Reply: Glad this made you laugh. I like the idea of Bilbo as a rather sneaky prankster. The voice trick was a little something he learned from Gandalf. | |

| Oh, this is GREAT! I love it! I love Frodo-centric fic. And I really, really love the way you write. Bilbo and Frodo just come right off the page. I feel like I'm right there in the Shire . . . I'll be waiting for more! Thanks! Author Reply: And thank you for the lovely review. | |

| If you ever want me to go over a piece for grammar nit-picks, send me an email. Your writing is so wonderful, that's about all I'd nit-pick! evesdropping like a nosey old gammer, grinning like he'd won a prize at fair for bringing the best calf to market, "Don't know his hat from a hay wagon" I just love your word pictures. Bilbo! You make me laugh! And now I see you're doing something like what Gandalf did with the trolls... I can just see you sitting in the Ivy Bush, listening to speculation about the tippler. Yes, life with Bilbo will be quite the adventure. Author Reply: I always meant to get a Beta, but I am so impatient about posting. LOl I do appreciate the offer and once I grow some common sense I may take you up on it. I always suspected that Bilbo might have picked up a thing or two from Gandalf while on his first adventure. After all, there'd be no point in living past the age of the old Took if he don't enjoy himself now and again. Glad you liked this one. | |

| What a fun way to deal with all the rumour-mongers. And good, probably, for Frodo to see that not everything has to be taken seriously; it is possible to get a lot of entertainment from the way that others see you. (Though that is a lot easier as an older, richer, independent hobbit of means than as an orphaned tween.) Author Reply: So true! This might be a source of amusement for Bilbo but it might not strike Frodo in the same way. It's more important to fit in at Frodo's age. Bilbo enjoys being a character and can get away with it. Thanks for reviewing! | |

| Goodness, I can just see Bilbo doing such a thing! So Frodo was adopted to dig up Bilbo's treasure, eh? And I think Sam could take some lessons on 'dropping his eaves' from that rascally Baggins lad. Author Reply: Maybe that's where Sam learns what he coes know about it. After all, it's very difficult to fool a wizard! Glad you enjoyed this and thank you for the lovely review! | |

| Ah-ha! So we found the source of all those rumors! Or some of them at least. Very sly and tricky of old Bilbo - and funny. Great job! Author Reply: Thank you. I have always enjoyed Bilbo but haven't written as much for him as I would like to. I hope to have several stories in this group about him. Thanks for reading. | |

| That was a hoot! Old Mad Baggins...at it again! Very nice, Grey Wonderer! I really like your Bilbo and Frodo, so it'll surely be an adventure as you post more snippets. Looking forward to more! :-) Pippinfan Author Reply: I wrote that one and posted it to my LJ for the birthday of Frodo and Bilbo and then moved it and a couple more over here. The other two will be up sometime this week. Thanks for reviewing! | |
