| Bravo! Bravo!! Bravissimo!!! A lovely tale. I love the understanding of boys and the burdens they bear as they become men. Yes, let them have their silliness, their tussles and their ill-said words while they may. A wonderful story, Pipkin! | |

| Ah, how darling! From Elboron's description of how the poop deck came to its name to the reunion with the children's fathers, to the naming of the small ship... And it was such a pleasure to see Stevenson's poem here! Yes, a lovely tale to read (and read again!)! | |

| Wow! This was exceedingly well-written, and the first Lothiriel-pov fic I've come across that's not shippy! The notion of Elboron taking to the Sea just as thoroughly as Eowyn rejects it was highly amusing, as well as Elanor's "perspicacious" comment: she does seem to be the type that would try to use Big Words as soon as possible, if not sooner! And Pippin, managing to slip nuggets of wisdom amid all his mirth, was perfect (though possibly not that comment at the end, *grin*!). So there were so many different little things that made this entire tale enjoyable. Thank you! ~Celeritas | |

| Ohhh, what a lovely, soothing story! I love Fellowship stories where they all work together to accomplish something each person could never have done on his own. And this... “Some day, if we succeed in our effort, perhaps the cradle songs for your own young ones will be brighter and happier songs."... It came true after all, didn't it? | |

| Pipkin, as lovely and poignant on the second read! Thank you! | |

| I thought I'd reviewed this, but I didnt see it when I checked. I am so glad to see Boromir so well featured. I'm sure no one expected him to be quite so handy to have around for his needle and peppers! Now that I've found your stories, I hope you have lots more out there about 'my guy' and his little ones. Author Reply: Thanks so much, sweetie! Matter of fact...if they don't have Boromir, I don't do 'em, except for Theif of Hearts. All others either have Boromir or at least a sense of his presence. When I think in terms of writing Tolkien fanfic, I think about Boromir and Pippin, usually with a bit of Merry, too. Thanks so much for the review! It means so much to hear someone liked a story! | |

| I've never seen Ioreth quite so kindly done. Grin. I just cant imagine taking something as simple as crab and turning it into a Boromir story. Thank you so much for sharing it! | |

| Yes, a proper song to sing to remember the son of Denethor. And quite the story to tell, of young Pippin getting sick and the snipe soup. Author Reply: Thanks so much! I need to post some more here... | |

| Did I read this on FFN? It's a wonderful tale, after all, of Merry coming to realize there's something special about this new cousin of his. Am glad to read it again, I know. | |
