| It took a bit of flipping thru the pages, but I finally found this story and am glad I did. What a delightful way to spend my lunch hour. I hope Sam relents and lets poor Goldi marry Faramir. | |

| As with the other current story, Truth, you probably have missed reviews for this one too. I don't mind if you don't want to bother replying here, as I may very well read on ff.n still, but I'm not going to trust any more reviews there for a while. First of all, the version on storiesofarda has some formatting problems you might want to fix - everything is in one bolded paragraph, which is I know not how you intend it to look. It is interesting that there are rooms kept ready for the Mayor and his family, yet it does not appear from other things said that they visit that frequently. Or is it just that Ferdi does not dine with them often? It is also interesting how well Elanor has fit into residence at the Smials with her family. She is clearly comfortable and at ease. Pippin spoils her baby (not a surprise) and she has a minder for him. Will Sam and Rosie think she is getting above herself? Is it so big a step to think of Goldie there as well? Poor Goldie, she's so sad Faramir has been sent away to Buckland. And whose idea was that? Is Pippin trying to avoid confrontation, or did Sam enlist Merry's aid? I'm sure there'll be a bit of trouble and heartache for them before the end, but I trust you to finish it to canon. I'm an incurable romantic, so I'm mostly eager for the course of true love to run smooth, while at the same time I'm looking forward to seeing your solution to the pickle you've set up for them. It is welcome to see Ferdi and Nell at ease. I knew Ferdi would retain his handicap, from what you had written before, yet he also retains his good humor and equanimity. I think dealing with his Da for so many years taught him to see beyond the externals (yes, I did mean it that way) and it has served him well in his own adventures. I hope he'll play a part in this story too. Looking forward to tomorrow, FantasyFan Author Reply: So glad to see you over here, I've missed you! Thanks for alerting me to the problem with chapter 2. | |
