Change their name to Baggins? Horrors!

So glad Tolly got to keep the best of both worlds :)

Author Reply: The only name I can think of that might be more shocking than (mad) Baggins would be Sackville-Baggins! (And that name also has "Baggins" as a component, come to think of it.)

I'm also glad that Agate can point to Tolly as one of her successful cases, where he was able to keep both parts of himself and integrate them into a healthy, whole person.

Thanks so much for reading and for taking the time to share your thoughts! I do appreciate it.

Yay! What a happy ending! And I am glad to see the links, for I will have to check out the story of the hard winter and the wolves….

So happy all worked out for them, and that everyone is now settled and comfortable in their family. Thanks so much for your work on this story - I have enjoyed it!

Author Reply: You're very welcome! And let me thank you in turn for your steady stream of reviews, which were so encouraging. I'm glad you enjoyed the story. I'm also glad to have explained that rather large plot hole satisfactorily at last.

I hope you'll enjoy reading more about the hobbits who've captured my attention and refuse to let me go!
