Fields of Gold  by Anso the Hobbit 10 Review(s)
PIppinfan1988Reviewed Chapter: 3 on 6/15/2005
This is very well written...I like how you are writing in Pippin's whole family along with the special relationship between these two. I'm looking forward to reading more chapters!

Oy, the chicken pox! I remember that well...and I feel sorry for Eglantine and Paladin in the near future; a house full of very uncomfortable children. Pimpernel and Pearl are both older than Merry, I wonder how they will fare. Great reading!

I've never read sick Merry fics before but i must admit that i like it as much as Frodo sick fics.. hehe ;)
i hope Merry gets better soon~ but i like the gentle comfort that you have in this chapter and the genuine concern that Pippin and his mom have for Merry.
Poor Merry~ =( have the Chicken Pox, eh?

::excited to read more::

Author Reply: Thank you for your kind words! I`m glad you like it. And welcome to the world of sick Merry fics then. I write a lot of that, and half my stories are a Merry h/c in one way or other.

Such an ominous title as this chapter has!

Glad Pippin has already been sick with it. Wise Eglantine. Sweet Pervinca!

Author Reply: Thanks! yes, well I`m not that good with titles but this is really the start of things :) Oh, and in respons to your respons to my comment, I wouldn`t be upset by spoilers... :)

Chicken Pox! I knew it, but I didn't. Can't wait for more! :D

Author Reply: Yes. I think Merry will be happy that it`s something you only can suffer once.

Looks like Merry is in for a very rough time and then the Tooks may have three sick daughters to see to as well. I am wondering if they will have to send for Merry's parents. I enjoyed him trying to talk himself into being too grown up to need his mum for this illness and the way he tried to assure himself that Pippin's mum would take good care of him just like she always did Pippin. I think Merry may just need his mum before this is over. Looking forward to more now that I am caught up.

Author Reply: Thank you! Merry is still a child and being sick isn`t something he`s used to much either, so wanting his mum is quite natural though. Still he`s so used to seeing his aunt care for Pippin so he know she does that well and with love.

Well written and excellent characterization.

Poor Merry--chicken pox! I remember getting it when I was in sixth grade--was pretty awful.

Author Reply: Thank you!

I remember having it too, but I was 4 I think and it wasn`t fun. :)

This is so sweet. Poor Merry, stuck with chicken pox. But at least they are not going to have to keep his Pip away from him, for a change Pippin can't get what he has.
And poor Eglantine--none of her daughters have had it yet? Uh-oh, she's going to be really overwhelmed!
You don't suppose Frodo will turn up to help, do you?

Author Reply: Thank you! Yes it`s good Pip has already had it. And Eglantine will have a stressful time of this. Taking care of sick people is hard work.

You don't suppose Frodo will turn up to help, do you?
Well, he is on the list of characters... :)

This is coming along so well! I like that Pippin is getting to be the care giver and that Pervinca is being so kind to her brother. Well done!!


Author Reply: Thank you! I think Pervinca is just as scared over her cousin being sick as Pippin is and if there`s anything she can do to help, she`d do it.

Author Reply: Thanks! More is coming soon. i`m afriad I haven`t read your update yet, but I`m going between bed and the computer at the moment so I will get there, and I am looking forward to it.

"Poor Merry! Maybe he would die after all, because if Pippin were to judge by how Merry looked this morning, he didn`t have long left."

Poor Pippin!! Oh my, what a wonderful, loving (and suspenseful) story.

Author Reply: Thank you! Yes, Pippin is in for a hard time, he is that. And when there`s nothing he can do to make Merry happy he gets very worried.
