One Who Sticks Closer than a Brother  by Lindelea 3 Review(s)

Oh, Aragorn--what a limitation you've put on yourself and the folk of the Hobbits! Come on, Pippin--put it together!

Author Reply: I know... I would love to know what JRRT's thoughts were, about his Edict. I don't recall if any of his letters discuss the matter. As far as I know, it's only mentioned in one place--the Tale of Years, isn't it?

Oh yes! Pippin *will* understand! (And I'm not just saying that because of you know what; I would say that anyway!) but because Pippin is Pippin, and he knows Ferdi very well--it's likely the only hobbit he knows better is Merry.

Author Reply: Yes, I have every confidence in Pippin! (If not Nell, who practically reads Ferdi's mind because of their close bond. That's not exactly a spoiler, because the next chapter isn't written yet, only outlined. But you're right, he knows Ferdi very well, sometimes even better than Ferdi knows himself, I think.)

I am shirking my duties, and must go... How tempting on a cloudy morning to bask in the light shining from the screen.

But there's much to be done today, and I have stolen as much fanfic time from the schedule as I could...

Will hope to post more in the next day or two.

(And quite looking forward to your next posting as well!)

Methinks that there is a pair of hobbits that need the healing hands of the King. But what a prognosis! Poor Ferdi!

Author Reply: Wow, quick response!

Poor Ferdi, indeed, but there are still some chapters yet to come.

Thanks!
