| Adorable! He is indeed "Took, the Terrible!" - at least to all those midges. Author Reply: Hello Pearl Took, yep, that Pip is a cheeky rascal alright. You've got to love him, eh? I'm delighted you enjoyed his trip to the marshes (although he obviously didn't) and thanks for R & R-ing, m'dear! M ;) | |

| LOL!!! Midgewater Marshes! It had to be there! Did I understand correctly that Pippin used his sword as a fly flap ("Fliegenklatsche")? I would have liked to see that scene in the movie. Don't worry about the blood amount. After all, we are referring to a story in which trees can walk and talk! I've never seen one in real life ;-) Author Reply: Hello Andrea, Yes indeed, Pippin used his sword as a substitute Fliegenklatsche - clever little Took, eh? Thanks for the supportive words about the blood, etc. It's so lovely to hear you say that. Or should I say to 'read' you say that? Thanks for R & R-ing, M ;) | |

| Those last few paragraphs were adorable, cousin dear! I look forward to more outtakes! :) Namarie, God bless, Took the imp! :) Author Reply: Hello wee Took bloom, I giggled because I could almost see you recoiling in horror at the first few paragraphs, wondering if Pip had lost his senses (or if I had for writing such a blood-thirsty tale). But I'm delighted you enjoyed the latter part and saw the humour of it, blossom that you are. Pip would never really relish the death of anyone or anything (other than orcs...or midges). Thanks for R & R-ing, M ;) | |

| *giggles* Thanks Maureen! When Pippin does something, he does it with determination, doesn´t he? I nearly feel sorry for the moskitos, but then...they can be rather annoying, those little beasts. I wonder the Hobbits must have looked quite funny after the Midgewatermarches and probbaly scratching all the time. Thanks agaun, Golden :) Author Reply: Hello Golden, My pleasure - I know what a Pip fan you are. Oh, just the thought of spending several days in midge infested marshes makes want to scratch all the time too! Thanks for R & R-ing, M :) | |

| Don't apologize to us for having some fun--I've found a few reviewers are simply too literal-minded. And I can see this happening! Yes--get the midges and whatever mosquitoes might be mixed with them! I'm with you, Pip! Author Reply: Hello Larner, Of course, you're right! I shouldn't let a few words needle me so. I'd only written this as a bit of fun and thought others woulde easily recognise it for the clear exaggeration on Pip's part that it was - and although the reviewer said some very nice things too (she's really very sweet, actually), I was just annoyed beyond reason that a few ridiculous things had been pointed out and critiqued in a fic that was supposed to be a light-hearted piece of nonsense. Constructive crit I can take, petty nitpicking on the other hand, just leaves a bad taste. Anway, I'll stop rambling... The marshes must have been a blooming nightmare for all the hobbits, Aragorn and poor Bill (imagine having no hands to swipe the blighters from your face...ahudder). So it seemed like the perfect way to have Pip act like a perfectly justified (although slightly crazed) crazed killer. I'm bad, and I love it! I also love that you R & R-ed, so thank you m'dear, (A more calm & relaxed) M ;) | |
