Oh Dear! You weren't kidding when you said the ride gets bumpy! Poor Pippin! Those Plotting Tooks! *Fume* *Fume* Plotting against our Pippin!! Needless to say I am really liking this story! Pippin would of course always be welcome in Gondor with the King, but still!! MM Author Reply: MM, I am so glad you are liking the story! I am doing my best to write it so that it fits on the timeline I constructed years ago (and have written to, for the most part), and yet still works as a standalone. Hopefully it works! Ah, those Tooks! (But of course, JRRT said himself that hobbits could be quite stubborn and tiresome and have limited imagination, or something like that... But Gandalf also said that hobbits were full of surprises, so there is that.) Thanks! As I'm sure you'd agree, reading reviews is so very encouraging. | |

Hmm. And who is guilty of this joke at justice, eh? Am angry on the accuseds' parts! Author Reply: Tooks, actually. Which will come clearer as the story proceeds. Thanks! Author Reply: Will modify my answer thus: Tooks who are seeking what they consider is best for their homeland. Whew. Author Reply: And, because I am rather driven to distraction at the moment, and hoping for a good outcome, I will divert myself with a riddle hopefully worthy of a Tookish-Bagginsy Burglar himself, with his "burahobbit" answer that, while perfectly true, also served to confuse certain others in his story. Tooks, and Tooks who are seeking what they consider is best for their homeland, and a few more Tooks into the bargain. Thank you for having patience with me. Will tell you all about it when we meet again. | |
