| O those aches that worsen with age... Ooo! I just remembered that Éowyn is a healer! Is there arnica in Faramir's future, perhaps? (I think Pippin ought to have brought with him for Faramir a new pair of slippers made from sheepskin with the soft, warm woollen side on the inside of the slippers. After all, the Green Hills of Tookland are perfectly suited to sheep! And best of all, no breaking-in period is needed. Heck, he might have brought shearling slippers for the whole family! Light and easy enough to pack.) I can imagine great progress made over twenty years. Ithilien was already beautiful, and it can only be more so after Faramir's diligent attention to the matter. At age fourteen, I would have loved to have an uncle who brought me a horse. I had to wait until I was an adult to buy my own. I'm so glad to see Pippin and Diamond here. And Merry! Is Estella here, too? Yes, I see her now! Ah, yes, I too envisioned some rough sailing in Pippin's early years. So this sounds comfortingly familiar, even if it wasn't all that comfortable for the young Thain himself. Sigh. An echo of Boromir: "One does not..." "Never getting married..."! Hah! Spoken with all the short-sightedness of Youth. But I do adore the love you portray between the various couples. I also love the friendship between the two queens. And "...a time for new directions" sounds... promising? Are you sure this story will have only three chapters? Author Reply: Lindelea! Oh No! This story will have more than three chapters! But I really want to finish at least "Destiny's Child" first. Those plot bunnies are restless and have developed sharp teeth! LOL!! I sense that Eowyn has formulated some form of Arnica! And the application of rubbing in the Arnica may have directly lead to at least one of the children! *LOL* *evil grin* I think the idea of Pippin having some difficulties at first quite probably can from your wonderful Pippin stories! I grabbed the idea of the relationships between Merry and Estella and Pippin and Diamond and ran with it. hee-hee! I think the relationship between Eowyn and Arwen would have grown quite strong and close. Lounging around the solar was quite an easy chapter to write. And once my story gets a little boozy. There will be more... Thanks for writing! (((hugs))) MM Author Reply: And yes! Pippin should have brought slippers for all!! But that thought went away as he was tucking into Second Breakfast and fail to mention it to Diamond, who laden with 17 other things to do for the trip! So it didn't happen! Fool of a Took! :-)) (((hugs))) MM | |
