I love the character you bring out in the hobbits. Every line I read seems like something each of them would say. You have a real talent for writing, Grey Wonderer. Author Reply: Thank you so much.

“You can’t measure yourself against others, Master Pippin,” Sam said. “My Gaffer says that everyone is different and all ‘o us just have to be the best at what we’re able to do and leave the rest to others.” “Then I had best sit down in a corner and leave everything to everyone else,” Pippin sighed. “I’m not terribly good at anything.” Oh, how often I've felt like that!! This is a joy to read :) Author Reply: I am very glad that you like it. I have also felt like that. I just wish I were more like Sam; good at many things and not too concerned about the others. | |

Bless Sam, rock of support that he always is. Pippin needs support, and Sam is letting him lean on that foundation. Lovely! Author Reply: Sam is actually doing a great job of keeping things under control while attempting to teach Pippin something along the way. He is a very brave gardener to take this one on. But everyone knows that Sam is special. | |

I am loving this story, even if I do want to shake Merry! Frodo must have a lot of patience not to kick the irritating tween. Oh Sam! He is so adorable and so patient with poor, ham-fisted Pip. Loved the foot-guards and the fact that he is now looking for a helmet. I've been giggling so much at this that people are starting to think I'm madder than Denethor! Great story - looking forward to the next chapter. Sam may well need a suit of armour by then! Author Reply: You don't have a Palantir about do you? Happy to hear that you are getting some laughs out of this one. Just don't set anything on fire and you should be ok. LOL | |

Frodo is very strong-willed - not to have thumped Merry yet. It all goes to show that Pippin might be a sensitive, easily-hurt teen, but Merry is still at the huffy tween stage. I don't know how Frodo and Sam cope! Sam is a star. If anyone can get Pippin through this, it'll be him. And, hopefully, boost his confidence along the way. I think Frodo might find it a bit more tricky to bring Merry to an understanding of his own weaknesses though. Looking forward to the next part! Author Reply: Thank you for reading and I am glad that you are enjoying this one. I think everyone may just learn a thing or two before this is over, even Meriadoc. LOL | |
