"You do look ever so much older than I do, after all."

I love the way you write Pippin. So wise, so cheeky, so totally himself at all times.

Author Reply: Thanks. I consider that very high praise. Thanks for taking the time to review.

I loved this. I found it tonight and I don't think I've seen before. I love the way Pippin sets Merry straight and that last line of Pippin's is priceless!

Author Reply: Thanks, GW.

I finally got around to putting this up here. It had been on my LJ, but without a title for several months. PF suggested I put it and the other one in a short story file here. Like I have that many short ones.:)

Merry's heart was in the right place, but he just forgets that Pippin isn't a child anymore.

Cute and sweet. The film Return of the King was like one big favorite scene for me but if I had to choose specific scenes it would be Merry watching Pippin be put onto Shadowfax and then watching him be taken away from him. They were always there for each other and then to be separated like that hurt so much.

Namarie, God bless, Antane :)

Author Reply: I'm very glad you liked this.

That moment when Gandalf rides away with Pippin gets me every time.:)

God bless you, too.

Wonderful! I love these two lads. It can be so hard to let someone growup, to not hover over them. You did this beautifully, Garnet!

Author Reply: Thanks, Pearl.

Merry probably really did have a very hard time realizing that Pippin could not only look after himself, but could also now look out for Merry, too. That had to shock the slightly over-protective older hobbit.

They really two wonderful lads.

Just a proper argument for the two of them, silly and wise and loving Hobbits that they are! Yes, a proper one.

Author Reply: Yes, it was. There is no way that two friends could be that close and never argue. It's just not natural. Disagreements are part of the food that friendships grow on.
