Yes, I can certainly see this happening, this wondering if they'll find the right ones for them, the ones who love Merry and Pippin and not just the notoriety.

Author Reply: The trials of the rich and famous. They do have problems that the rest of us will never have.

Thank you for reading this story, Larner. And for responding :) :)

An interesting introduction to the problems of courting when you are both famous and high society! When all they really want is true love - like Rosie and Sam. (Could be they're looking in the wrong place - at the wrong sort of lass.)

Author Reply: Yes indeed. A problem I myself have never had to deal with ;) I lucked out, I have a Sam.

Thank you, Bodkin!

Well, I know you've said this is a story that was posted before but I must have missed it because it all sounds new to me. I love it by the way. I do think it must have been hard for Merry and Pippin to tell if a lass was enjoying their company because she actually liked them or if she was just enjoying being with someone considered famous. I look forward to more of this one.

Author Reply: Sorry for the long delay in replying, GW. :(

Yes, it was posted at ff.net and I hadn't moved it here because I wanted to wait until I was in the right frame of mind to do a rewrite.

It is a problem that Billy, Dom and Elijah have faced, I'm sure. As Bill Murry once said, "Those people who say they want to be rich and famous; I suggest you try just being rich first and see if that doesn't do it for you."

Thank you for reading and responding, GW!

Author Reply: Thank you so much, Elanor :)

I'm planning on posting once or twice a week, depending on how well I do with keeping up on making the corrections and doing the rewrites that my editor and I agree upon.

I'm so glad you are enjoying it :)

I am in awe, Pearl! In AWE! This is very well done! How long has it been since you posted this on ff.net? Three, four years? It like coming home to re-read a good friend. :-)

I still find this way too cute:

"Married!" Merry's pipe fell from his mouth in his surprise. "Married! Pippin, what brought that up?"

"Well, you know, we really ought to sometime."

Merry grinned wickedly as he rolled over and up onto his forearms to better look at Pippin. "Is that a proposal Pip?"


That is *so* very Merry! Gotta love that Pip! Very fine start to a beautiful tale.

Author Reply: Aw, thank you, Pippinfan :) I hope you'll enjoy it as much this time as you did the last and find the changes only improve it :)

Thank you so much for reading and responding!
