| That was so brilliant of Sam--poor Frodo can't stand hurting his gardener. :) I loved it when Sam answered the door when Merry and Pippin arrived: "Frodo!" "You're not Frodo." LOL!! This is off to a great start, I'm off to read the next chapter! ^^ Author Reply: Sam's showing his potential for being a future spy, and Merry's taking notes. Frodo will abuse his cousins to no end (but kindly and politely of course!) but he can't hurt Sam's feelings. And Sam's got that infectious smile which makes it nearly impossible to crush his spirits. Frodo doesn't stand a chance against those three! Thanks for reading. | |

| lol~!! this is such a great story so far!!! All the hobbits are in character and it's just so funny what you have them say in order for them to convince Frodo that he go with M&P... this is one of my favorite lines: “Well, you’re doing a very poor job of it,” Merry stated matter-of-factly at the same time Pippin asked, “Then why is he making lunch?” “Really, Pippin, you’d rather eat Frodo’s cooking?” Merry said. LOL This is hilarious so far~ ::running to next chapter:: =) Author Reply: LOL, Frodo gets no peace from his cousins does he? I'm really surprised Frodo didn't just drop kick them out the door. He wasn't in a very good mood when they showed up and then they go and tease him mercilessly. I'm continually astounded by his patience. Glad you're enjoying it so far. Thanks for reading! | |

| Apparently he doesn't know Sam very well. This is looking good! Author Reply: Oh, he knows Sam pretty well, he's just rather flustered at the moment. Once he gets a minute to himself to think, I'm sure he'll put two and two together. Thanks for reading! | |

| Very nice start. I can't wait to see where this story/trip is going, but I bet it will be a real adventure. Author Reply: Thank you! I can't wait to see where it goes either, lol. I have an outline of course, but I'm already starting to stray away from it in my writing. | |

| 'If he didn’t know Sam any better, he’d almost think this was a conspiracy.' What an excellent line, full of dramatic irony. I don't blame Sam for wanting to ensure that Frodo has company. And they've worn him down - cunning move from Merry and Pippin. Now they just need to pack Sam up and take him - purely to avoid eating Frodo's cooking, of course. Interesting start - liked the characterisation and emotions displayed here! Author Reply: Our Sam is certainly getting his feet wet for a later conspiracy isn't he? Poor Frodo doesn't stand a chance when his friends decide to gain up against him. And Sam will get roped into this, Frodo's not as guillible as he seems to be. Thanks for the encouragement! | |

| Sam involved in a conspiracy? Surely not! Loved that bit. I am glad to see a new one starting up again. I loved how organized Merry was in his planning. Looks like a good start and I will look forward to more of this one. Author Reply: Our darling, innocent Sam would never do anything like that, would he? lol. If only Frodo knew what was in store for him down the road. Merry's get his own training for the Quest isn't he? Thanks for the encouragement! I'm not sure how long this will eventually be. I'm already straying from the outline I had drawn up, I don't know why I bother with those, lol. | |
