awww Merry comes! the whole dialogue with Gandalf was written so well... i love Merry angst and i love the fact that Pippin awoke and Merry and Gandalf are there for him.

Sighing a little in disappointment when he found nothing, Merry opened Pippin’s hand a little to steal a glimpse at the stars inside. They gleamed vibrantly in the dim tent, their light casting into shadow the lines of care on Merry’s face, his worry making him seem much older than his years.
I really like these sentences... =) I think i was always an unconscious Merry fan. :P

and PIppin waking--awww! more "c" to come i'm sure. :)

Author Reply: Thank you, dear! Glad you liked the Merry angst (unconscious Merry fan, eh? *grin*) and Pippin waking. I loved writing dialogue between Merry and Gandalf because so often I write Pippin and Gandalf. Gandalf is a great mentor to all hobbits :D

The gift of stars for a wandering spirit. May they guide him often and well.

Such a different take on Pippin at Cormallen. I love Gandalf comforting Merry. There's just not enough Gandalf-Merry in fics to suit me. And I love that when Gandalf asked Merry if he believed Pip about the stars, that he did, and so simply, because he believes his Pip.

Looking forward to more...

Author Reply: For a long time I refused to even consider doing a Cormallen fic, because I didn't want it to be a sort of 'been there, done that' type of story, so your comments here mean a lot to me. I'm thrilled that you think it's different and that you enjoy it! Thanks so much! :)

Merry's dream was truly frightening.

This was a very nice chapter. I like the way you show how much Gandalf really loves Pippin.

Thanks for sharing.

Author Reply: Thanks, Connie! I think that Pippin and Gandalf have one of the great friendships in LOTR, and I like showing a bit of that in my fics. I'm so happy that you're enjoying this story! :)
