| He is "waking-waking" at last. Good enough! | |

| ’He’s grown a bit,’ Frodo said. Just a wee bit. :) Like Frodo has grown just a wee bit. Well, if that's not an understatement! Ha! Namarie, God bless, Antane :) Author Reply: Very nice use of subtlety! Well done! *g* | |

| Frodo is positively enjoying poking Freddy. I think we all enjoy it more, once Freddy starts to come out of the fog a little and can respond. He doesn't know what's going on right now, but his memory of old days is returning and a little of the old spirit. It's quite a relief. Frodo is funny! Nobody else ever writes write post-quest Frodo joking, but he couldn't have been sad and sick all the time. Pippin's 'Wakey, Wakey" makes a return as well as a memory of Estella the Terror, jokes about feeding Freddy like a new father with a cranky babe, and even a couple of quips at his own expense. I am absolutely enchanted. Of course, the business with Estella is a bit more serious. I understand that this is an old-fashioned culture, but I'm getting a little tired of all the menfolk protecting their wives from bad news. Some of the strongest characters in the Shire are female, and they're not getting a chance to prove their worth in a crisis. Odo doesn't even have a plan right now - who will he talk it over with, if he can't talk to his wife? I'm looking forward to hearing about Stell's adventures, from her point of view. I'm sure it wasn't pleasant, but I'm also glad you gave us that hint that she's alive and well. | |
