All's Fair  by Inkling 4 Review(s)
Breon BriarwoodReviewed Chapter: 4 on 3/18/2005
Oh, my dear lad.... not only in the throes of first love, but to also be betrayed. I can already tell my heart is going to be breaking in the next few chapters.

Author Reply: Well, I don’t want to give too much away but if it’s any comfort, Frodo gets to stay happily deluded for a while yet…thanks Breon!

Oh, OUCH! Frodo! LOL! OK, so maybe he is innocent, but wow! You are right, I can so see where this is headed. Poor poppet! Well, this is one way to learn.

Author Reply: Hee hee! Poor Frodo seems to be eliciting equal parts sympathy and giggles in this chapter. You’re right, Ariel, this will be quite educational for him…

Ah, it was obvious what Coronel, the Rake of the Tooks, wants with that poem. Poor Hyacinth and Frodo--both about to be taken for a ride!

Giggling, even if it is over the naivete of our favorite Hobbit lad.

Author Reply: The Rake of the Tooks…I like it! (and rather think Coronel would, too!) Thanks Larner, glad it gave you a chuckle.

Another great chapter!
Well, at first I thought, Coronel would hand over the poem to Hyacinth pretending he wrote it, but he wanted it to be signed. Why?
"Udo" sounds much like "Frodo", but there is no similarity to "Coronel"!
I really wonder, what he's up to. Hopefully, Hyacinth will not so easily be deceived. She and Frodo would be the perfect couple, I think!

Looking forward to the next update!


Author Reply: Thanks, Andrea! You’re right, it’s not quite as simple as it seems. Scumbag though he is, the idea of identity theft has not crossed Coronel’s mind…yet. But such is his supreme confidence that he is sure Hyacinth will find him irresistible, even while delivering a poem signed by another hobbit.
