Peregrin and Diamond  by Pearl Took 5 Review(s)

The little HUSSY! To do that to poor Pippin!

Loved the description of the lasses playing with them like marionettes, dangling them with their hair ribbons.

Lovely imagery, and all too true descriptions of the more manipulative.

Author Reply: Yes, she's a nasty bit of goods.

Thank you, Larner, for the compliments :) and for reading and responding!

Definitely looking in the wrong place at the wrong sort of lass. That Persimmone! Gold digger. And strumpet. None of that bunch of lasses seem likely to make happy marriages, since their idea of courting seems to be to entice suitable prospects into impropriety.

Glad to see Estella is among the other lasses! But poor Pippin is probably doing himself no favours by storming off to escape female attention. I can see this leading to disaster, adventure and meeting his true love.... Oh, hang on, that all sounds very promising!

"I'm not as warm now." She said softly. "In fact I'm a bit chilled." She moved herself tightly against Pippin."

Yeah--that's how it always begins! Persimmone is a loser.

You ain't kidding! Lasses/women *are* more terrible than guys/fellows at gossiping about who they've conquered.

Poor Pippin! I hope he finds the *right* lass soon! ;-)

Yes, we lasses can be just as bad as the lads :D

Thank you, Pippinfan, for reading, responding and befriending me :)

This line was so very Pippin!
(she seemed a nice enough lass who just had trouble with adjusting to the temperature around her.)
Such an innocent trusting hobbit with no idea he is being had.

I am beginning to remember a bit of this story and I do think I must have read parts of it before this, but I am enjoying it very much and I look forward to more of it. I loved it when Pippin tossed the lasses out of the house.

I do feel sorry for Pip but also for Merry because he had to let Pippin ride off and he has no idea where his dear friend is going or for how long.

Author Reply: Thank you, GW :) It's so nice to have something fit the character well. I'm so glad you are enjoying this story.

Yes, Merry is one thing getting improved in the rewrite, I kind of neglected him in the original.

Thanks so much for responding :) :)

Oh those evil little brats!!!!!!!!! And now poor Pippin's leaving!? And I have to wait how long till the next chapter!? But really, I love this story so far and can't wait for the next part.
God bless,

Author Reply: Yes, they are a rather nasty bunch.

Hopefully you won't have to wait too long :) I've got a couple of chapters that are needing more work than I expected and so I'm taking my time posting as I don't want to catch up to the ones I'm working on.

Thanks so much, Elanor, for reading and responding :)
