Seriously?!? (I know it's too late to post this comment, but I didn't discover this website soon enough to read it when it was first published, and I just have to say this even if nobody ever sees it -- TLDR too.) OK, for one thing, I doubt if there were such things (ESPECIALLY among the Elves) in 3rd Age Middle-earth as medical thermometers, rectal (because Elves would never think of it, not even the Noldor) or otherwise, and even if there were, I don't believe that Elrond, of all people, would subject his patients to such indignities, being as kind as he was and not for fear of the wrath of Sam :) Besides that, Elrond was probably able to determine body temperature by feel alone, with his hand on someone's head (and nowhere else!), and with at least enough accuracy to know what treatment or medication was called for, what with his Elven senses as well as several thousand years of practicing the healing arts without the aid of such "devices," even if they had been invented by then. Or maybe I'm taking this all too seriously. It's a joke, right? Or at least I hope it is. Just my opinion, for whatever it's worth. And BTW, I did enjoy the other stories in this series. | |

Lol! I see much banana bread and many banana splits in Frodo's future. Author Reply: It's delightful to imagine that. | |

Really, Frodo... Don't be such a fussy Hobbit! It's not so bad! Author Reply: Heee, I still think of this scene when I peel the 'strings' off my bananas. | |

Love these! exactly what i am looking for. I always was biased to Rivendell! recovery Frodo with the Morgul wound so the first one is right up my alley. I liked the stubborn!Frodo of saying he's fine in the last one because that is so me. :) Author Reply: I'm so happy to share these with you right now. Practically all I've written for nearly 20 years is h/c, so let me know if there's any specific subject or character that you'd like to read about! LOL, stubborn!Frodo. I thought that would give you a grin! | |
