Baggins!  by Grey Wonderer 13 Review(s)
LarnerReviewed Chapter: 9 on 9/22/2008
I know I didn't read this one before--oh, it is SO priceless! One in the morning, and they woke him up AND poured a bucket of water on him! And then locked themselves in Frodo's room while he cleans up! Oh, he so deserved it, and particularly after first denying there WAS a bucket and then telling Frodo to get on with it!

This is wonderful, GW! Just wonderful!

Author Reply: I liked the idea that Frodo would plan this out and wait until Pippin was old enough so that revenge could be taken without this looking like the 'much older cousin picking on a mere child'. Revenge is a dish best served cold as the Klingons say. And this was some very cold water!

Pippin growled something that probably wasn’t repeatable in polite company but made no effort to get up.

“I don’t think that would be very pleasant,” Merry said. “Besides, if I were to attempt that I might injure myself and then you’d have to get up and go get a healer.” He reached over and poked the largest portion of the blanket pile sharply.

Bwahahahahaha!!!!!!! Oh dear, I laughed so much at this story when you first posted it that I completely forgot to review!

This was absolutely hilarious - Frodo has a very inventive evil streak, doesn't he? Cunning hobbit, and I just loved the 'it's all in the details.'
great story, GW.



Author Reply: That you! I just adore it when people laugh at these things. I like to let Frodo master mind a trick or two now and then. Merry and Pippin shouldn't have all the fun. (In this case, Pippin didn't have too much fun at all. LOL) Thanks for the lovely review!

A delightful dose of Pip-torture - and a clear indication that revenge is a dish best served cold ...

Mind you, locking the bedroom door is a way of keeping yourself safe overnight - but I dread to think what a worked-up Pippin might do to the rest of the smial.

Very entertaining.

Author Reply: It is hard to tell what Pippin will do at this point but I am very certain that he will have to get his own revenge at some point in all of this. Frodo may need more than just that one door bolt. LOL

Oh you do know how to keep up the suspense and then leave the very best bit til the very last. I was rolling around in fits of giggles - great stuff!

Author Reply: Why thank you! I love it when these bring on fits of giggles. Thank you so much for reviewing and for reading! It means a lot to me to know people enjoy these.

Ahahahaha this was wonderful! Evil cousins!

I loved this...

“You do like to sleep until it becomes light, don’t you?” Merry said grinning broadly.

“It’s a weakness,” Frodo said.


...and the bit about Pippin's howl being heard as far away as Bree. Brilliant!

Author Reply: Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it. I imagine that if someone dumped ice water on me then they'd hear me howling for a good long while if the shock didn't kill me. LOL
Thanks for reviewing!

YEE-haw!!!!!!! I LOVE these stories!! That Bilbo, what an irrepressible rascal...hehehe...and poor old Otho, talk about henpecked...and that with the punch bowl...and Frodo getting Pippin back with a bucket of icy water.......hehehehe....I'll be chuckling all night! I hope you come up with more soon!

Thanks for a most enjoyable read!

Author Reply: Thank you. For some reason I hadn't posted anything to this little group of stories in a while but I do hope to have more of these at some point. Most of the things I write seem to fit better under "Trust a Brandybuck and a Took" but this was just Frodo's moment. LOL

"The really entertaining part of all of this is going to be when he realizes that it’s only one in the morning and he is wide awake."

ROTFL!!!

That was brilliant, G.W., really brilliant! One in the morning?! Pippin will be furious! But Frodo had that bolt installed, and that will prevent Pippin from doing something nasty - "It's all in the details" ;-)

Author Reply: Thank you for the lovely review and I am very glad that this gave you a laugh. Sooner or later Frodo and Merry will have to come out of that room and then, who's to say what might happen. Pippin will have had time to think about it all and.....

You are absolutely wicked, and this was a riot.

Here I am caught short with no time for a proper review. I love your way with ocnversation, and your cheeky hobbits!

sounding as if this were news he’d never heard before. (and many more snippets. many many more snippets. buckets. and details.)

Great job!

Author Reply: Thank you very much! Sometimes I like to allow Frodo to pull out his own bag of tricks and show his younger cousins exactly who the expert is on such matters. Thank you for reviewing!

This reminds me of that Klingon saying, "Revenge is a dish best served cold." Omigosh, Pippin will be FURIOUS! A plan ten years in the making... wow. No wonder our hobbits were persistent enough to make it through the Quest.

*giggles*

Author Reply: I love that Klingon saying! I had to fight to keep from putting it into the story. Now, I am thinking of another Klingon saying, you know the one, "Today is a good day to die"? Personally, I'd want to kill someone if they did that to me. LOL The Hobbits were a persistent bunch, weren't they? I always think of Pippin as the underdog, but really in matters like revenge, when he was small he had the edge because Frodo and Merry would have been limited by what they could and couldn't do to a small child. LOL

LOL, poor Pippin! I think he needs to plot some revenge against his cruel cousins! :)

Author Reply: Oh, I am certain that he will think of something given a bit of time. After all he will have to be thinking about something while he's cleaning up the water and getting warm. hehehe
