Rosie knows her Sam so well. She knows just how to get him to stop talking nonsense about her finding someone else. There's no way he could think of telling her to find someone else after that kiss. Author Reply: She certainly does. *grin* As I mentioned previously, I am very influenced in my Rosie by that scene that was in an Epilogue JRRT cut out--I *thought* it was in Unfinished Tales, but it turns out it's in Vol.4 of HoME, The End of the Third Age I don't know if you've seen it, it's lovely: All the children were in bed. Lights were glimmering still in Hobbiton and in many houses dotted about the darkening countryside. Sam stood at the door and looked away eastward. He drew Mistress Rose to him, and set his arm about her. March the twenty-fifth!" he said. "This day seventeen years ago, Rose wife, I didn't think I should ever see thee again. But I kept on hoping." "I never hoped at all, Sam," she said, "not until that very day; and then suddenly I did. About noon it was, and I felt so glad that I began singing. And mother said 'Quiet lass! There's ruffians about.' And I said 'Let them come! Their time will soon be over. Sam's coming back.' And you came. "I did," said Sam. "To the most belovedest place in all the world. To my Rose and my garden." They went in, and Sam shut the door. But even as he did so, he heard suddenly, deep and unstilled, the sigh and murmur of the Sea upon the shores of Middle-earth. *sigh* And that's how it *should* be writte. We've a lot to live up to. | |

I am so glad you're continuing with this! :-) Great run-in with Sandyman--gives credence to his sneering remarks when they come back to the Shire. And Pippin confessing to Merry about his own little conspiracy...very nice scene. My personal favorite: She glared at him for an instant. Then she reached up and wrapped her arms around him and began to kiss him very thoroughly. ...kissing him till his knees started to buckle. - Dreamflower Love those little romance pieces!! I'm a sucker for "thorough" kissing scenes! :-P Will be waiting for more... Pippinfan Author Reply: Yes, I thought it would be good for Rosie to give Sam something to remember her by. 8-) | |

Aw! Sam and Rosie - that was so gorgeous. I know in "The History of Middle-Earth", Rosie says she always knew Sam would come back, and this chapter gave her the perfect reason why :P Getting closer and closer to the unmasking! I think you're doing just fine. There's absolutely no reason for you to worry about breaking the cannon. Author Reply: Thank you for the encouragement. I really want to do this right, and do justice to JRRT. | |

Wow, Sam really didn't stand a chance after that kiss! Rose is so lucky. I want a Sam. Author Reply: I have a "Sam", though that's not his name. When you find someone who is absolutely true you make sure he knows that you know it. 8-) | |

Rose was wonderful!I love that part with her and Sam in the kitchen alone. Author Reply: I seem to set a lot of important scenes in the kitchen. Just seems right and hobbity. | |
