Jewels  by Lindelea 4 Review(s)

The twin to his other pony, and now recovering and finding just the proper Hobbit to partner in Merry. And I love the idea of Frodo's smile actually reaching his eyes this time.

'Yes, he is bright...' Merry said absently. He smiled. 'His name is Jewel.' He turned to meet his older cousin's gaze.

For the first time in a long time, Frodo's smile went all the way to his eyes.

Oh! Just so wonderful! I love it all. Poor sweet pony, I'm glad he'll have one of the best homes in the Shire :)

Author Reply: Oh, yes, he'll go from hell to paradise... except that he'll have to put up with unusual hours, seeing as how his new master is half owl.

Thanks!

Nice little bits of the Cotton family character. it seems only right that the sons inherited their father's feel for living things. I always knew they were my faorite hobbit family. Delicious description of breakfast!

Author Reply: The Cottons are your favourite hobbit family? What a lovely thing to say! (I do love the glimpse we got of the farmer in the original, during the scouring of the Shire.)

I got to know them a little better in "A Small and Passing Thing" and found them to be "salt of the earth", as my grandmother used to say. *g*

Brilliant Lindelea. To see the potential in the used and abused is a rare gift. I am glad that Frodo is there to be part of this redemption

Author Reply: Yes, Frodo was an essential part; he'd understand better than any other, I think.

Thanks!
