Well, of course there would be pocket handkerchiefs on Bilbo's mind--never too many when you are going on an adventure, even if it is merely to Whitfield! Heh! And now, for him to learn which of his Mannish acquaintances this one is. Author Reply: Yes, a good thing for him to know. He does have that Man-sized bed at Bag End, after all, doesn't he? (Or is that fanon? I'm tired tonight and not thinking quite straight.) I love Shirebound's idea that Aragorn periodically visited him in the Shire... But am trying to stick to canon as much as possible. There were occasional Men in the Shire even before the Troubles, at least. | |

And their off! It must be nice to go anywhere at the drop of a hat (or note rather). ;) Love the referral to 'The Hobbit'. He probably never was without a handkerchief after that. Author Reply: Must be nice. Not something we can manage, what with pets to feed and bills to pay. But then, Bilbo brought all that treasure back with him from wherever it was he went, or so the neighbours say, and so he doesn't seem to have much trouble with heading off on a whim. (I imagine he either learned to do without, or he always made sure he had a supply, after that.) | |

Oh yay! Bilbo and Frodo will be there soon! *grin* I can just see the two of them young adventurer and old, racing along! Author Reply: What fun! (You know, if Bilbo hadn't left, and left the Ring to Frodo when he did, eventually they would both have looked 50ish at the same time! The thought boggles the mind.) | |

I love the pace at which this story is progressing, speeding towards Bilbo's arrival! I would love to be a Quick Post messenger in the Shire. :) Author Reply: You know, I think being a Quick Post messenger would be just about the best job going. Thanks! | |

Poor Frodo. Bilbo needs to remember not to say anything he doesn't want that one to hear. Hopefully, the older hobbit can be of help to the Tooks of Whitacres. Looking forward to what you have planned next. Author Reply: And Merry and Pippin (and Sam) seem to follow in his footsteps, although Sam does get caught in the end. Thanks! | |
