I'm the same, I don't get it either! I prefer to read than to do chemical equations. I refer to such things as Mount Doom. I'll be waiting for another update! God bless, Ellie Author Reply: Yes, Mount Doom is my nickname for such torture called "school" as well, but particularly math and chemistry and science...I love learning. If only I could pick what I learn...ah well. I have no choice in the matter. I will try to update ASAP, which might be like the end of June!! SOrry!! Namarie! God Bless, Frodo Baggins

Oh, this is lovely Frodo! I am so glad Halmir is going to stay with the hobbits! As long as Frodo's not cooking, apparently (Exploding eggs? never seen that before!) giggles So glad to see you back here, mellon nin! Do update again soon! Sorry it's taken me so long to review this, i had Chemistry finals groans unhappily But I will review alot sooner next time! God bless, Ellie Author Reply: Hannon le! It's good to hear from you again. It grieves me to hear that you have been subject to such torture called 'Chemistry finals'. It truly is torture. I can't stand anything that has to do with math or science. I just don't get it. But I love Literature, history, language, and the like. That's beyond the point, forgive me. Are you sure you're happy Halmir is staying with the Hobbits?! Some interesting things are ahead! Very interesting! Lots of...well, you'll just have to wait and see! Unfortunately, it may not be soon. I'm leaving town tomorrow and shan't return until the twenty fourth of June. But I promise to update alot after that! Namarie, and hannon le for the review! God Bless! Your friend, Frodo Baggins

Oh, Frodo, I was sooo excited to see this update, and came to read it right away. But I got interrupted before I could review, so I had to wait till now. I just love the way you've done this meeting. Sam blushed to a colour similar to that of roses. Heehee! :) I'm one to talk, me, who blushes at everything and runs off when my brother comes this close when teasing about boys, but I just can't help laughing at this-so Sam! "Well, you know what happens when you try to cook..." "Peregrine Took! I can make lots of things!" "Like?" "I can make oatmeal biscuits, and chocolate chip biscuits and sugar biscuits and...I can make a nice pork chop dinner, with mashed potatoes; and scrambled eggs for breakfast, and toast; and peanut butter biscuits and...and..." "And the lad can’t live on biscuits alone!" Merry laughed. "But Frodo," Pippin said, "Things...happen when you cook. Scary things! Like...exploding eggs...strange looking biscuits...or..." "Now, now, we all know Mr. Frodo’s cooking has improved." Sam finished the argument before it could go any further. Everyone was now laughing as the cousins bantered back and forth about Frodo’s culinary skills. Even Frodo was chuckling. "Well, seriously, I think Halmir should stay with us. Goodness know there is enough room. What do you say, lads?" Frodo queried. "I say that Sir Peregrine Took, Captain of the Citadel Guard, should gladly welcome Young Master Halmir into his home." "His home? What about Sir Meriadoc Brandybuck, Holdwine of the Mark and Esquire to King Eomer? Does he have any say in the matter?" "Forgive me, sir." Pippin bowed with a flourish. "What does Sir Meriadoc Brandybuck, Holdwine of the Mark and Esquire to King Eomer and future master of Buckland say?" Halmir giggled at the two Hobbits’s antics. He looked to Frodo, who only rolled his eyes and shook his head at his cousins. claps a hand over mouth to stifle a convulsing fit of hysterical laughter Oh, oh, my goodness, Frodo, this is HILARIOUS!!! LOL! LOL! Especially the cooking! Biscuits, biscuits, biscuits! Goodness, Merry's right! LOL! Exploding eggs? Hmmm. Part of me wants to see that, because I didn't know it could happen, but I sure don't want to be the one responsible! The closest I'll come is to clean up the mess! :) It was so characteristic of Sam (who gave some of the cooking lessons, no doubt) to step right in and stop the arguing before it really got out of hand. And it was so sweet how they seemed to deliberately get all carried away just to make Halmir laugh. Now, don't get me wrong, I don't think it was all on purpose by any means...LOL! Oh, I so loved this chapter! But seriously now, you know, Frodo, you say I did most of this, but it's not true. Really. It started with an idea (which, if I remember rightly, was not mine, but that's another story), and we made a game of it; we weren't really serious. But you've taken our scrambled pile of story and are turning it into a wonderful masterpiece. This can't be easy, I know, and I admire you very much for taking it on and believing in it in spite of all the revisions that have to be made. You're doing a wonderful job. God bless, Galadriel P.S. Good grief! Talk about a long review! Sorry. Author Reply: blushing and bowing at waist Hannon le, Queen Galadriel! I don't feel that is appropriate, considering the praise you gave me. I don't deserve it, but I'm too tired to argue that right now. Exploding eggs. WEll, maybe I should change that. I didn't mean "exploding", but I had to think of something with eggs. What I meant was scrambling eggs that are in batter. Actually, it was my cousin and sister who did that. They were making cookies, and they mixed the butter and eggs. Then they decided they wanted to put it in the microwave to soften the butter. When it came out, the eggs were scrambled. Gross!! I'm glad you liked the way Merry and Pippin carried on. I just thought it was so...so them! I had to add humour to the story and was very pleased with what I came up with, as I usually am so hopeless with humour. And, seriously, Milady, all masterpieces must start with an idea. And the idea was so yours, and don't you dare deny it!! Our "scrambled pile of story" is my guideline, and it's rather easy and very fun. The problem is finding the time in which to do it. But...bowing deeply at waist hannon le for the compliment about admiring me for taking this on. You must know, that it is only a dim reflection of all you take on and all you do all the time. Hail, Queen of fanfiction!! LOL!!Namarie! God Bless, Frodo Baggins P.S. How's that for long? Sorry!
