Oh my goodness - I knew, almost from the beginning that something had gone horribly wrong and that Merry was in a bit of a fix - but I started to giggle when I realized that Pip was caught along with him... I just howled!

Was reading this one to the Grandson, and he couldn't take any more guffawing.

It's still as hilarious the first, second, and fifth times I read it. You do have a way with drawing predicamates!

Author Reply: Thank you and I just love repeat reviews! Sometimes I actually forget about these little stories and then someone reminds me by reading one of them. Thank you for the review.

It's been a while since I read this one. Still love it, with Merry and Pippin having to contemplate having to beg for help from Merry's rival and enemy. Poor Pippin is sometimes slow on the uptake, isn't he!

Author Reply: Thank you! I always love it when someone says that they have actually read one of these more than once. Thank you for the review!

Alas, poor Merry--we knew him well! Poor Hobbit. I am chuckling mightily over this one.

*hoots with laughter*

Oh, by Varda this is FUNNY! So like Merry and Pippin, too.

Pippinfan has had nothing but praise for you, and now I know why! Kudos for a job well done!

LOL, caught in their own trap! That was priceless, as I'm sure Garrett will agree when he comes out in the morning. After he finishes rolling on the floor with laughter that is.

Author Reply: I almost continued this one, but decided to stop it right there and let everyone make up the ending in their heads. LOL Maybe later on I will write more for it and we will all get to see Garrett's reaction.

Perfect! Very appropriate that Merry and Pippin get caught in their own snare! I like that Merry isn't going to beg but Pippin is ready to do a little begging in order to get down! I think I would too if I was hung by my ankles! Thank you!

Author Reply: I figure that Merry has too much pride to beg for much of anything, but Pip might be able to charm his way out of this mess. Glad you enjoyed this.

Oops. Missed seeing the "age thingy" at the top first time round. Ignore question.

ROTFLS (the 'S' is for silently, so I don't wake up the whole house!) I can just picture this! The funniest, and yet truest part of this was Pippin's solemn faith in his Merry. Why of *course* Merry would know how to get them down--his Merry knows *everything* doesn't he? How old are they in this one?

Author Reply: This one didn't really have ages attached when I wrote it. I knew that they would both be at least teens, but I hadn't decided. When I moved it here to post it, I decided the ages then. I see by your post above this that you found the note at the top of the chapter. LOL I do that all the time myself! Thanks for reading!

LOL...oh, my gosh! Leave it to Merry and Pippin--only their own contraptions would turn on them! Hope more ficlets are on their way! ;-)

Author Reply: I have quite a few of these little stories to post. Be careful what you wish for, you may just get it! LOL
