Oh, sheesh, jo! "Mr. Frodo didn't say nothing, just sat watching the fire, but his face was sad. The rug by his feet looked empty, somehow, without Fos curled up there, leaning against his knee. I saw him rubbing his hand along his knee sometimes, absent-minded like, as if he missed the curly head that used to rest there." I'll have you know you had me sniffling there and tears are dripping onto the keyboard as I type this. And now you've got me wondering -- had Fosco been able to stay, would Frodo have needed to leave? Hmmm. Now there's something to ponder... Ever since I came upon your "Following the Other Wizard" I've wondered if there might've been another way for Frodo to heal. What if he had a child (and not necessarily his own -- a little waif like Fosco, perhaps) to care for... would that have been enough? Well, I'm going to muse on that for the rest of the afternoon, after I finish this story. Thank you for always giving me something to think about! ;) Author Reply: A good question.
