The Last Homely House Welcomes Mr. Baggins  by Dreamflower 4 Review(s)

A great and also very interesting gap-filler.

I especially liked the description of the contents of Bilbo's crates, the discovery of "Trotters" journal and of course the Yule decorations.

This makes a lovely, and I am sure deliberate, pair with the other Yule snippet that you have just published. I don't think that I have read anything else that covers this period. I found your take on Lindir to be interesting and quite in keeping with the conversation between him and Bilbo in the hall of Fire when Frodo comes. I wonder what Lindir made of four more Hobbits turning up on the doorstep.

this may have been a gift for Shirebound but we are all enjoying it. This is a transitional period that we see very little of in canon and that hasn't been given much treatment in fanfiction either. Really really nice job, both on Bilbo's story and also on that of the elves getting ready for him. Thanks loads for your hard work on this, very much hoping to see further chapters if any are planned.

Author Reply: Thanks! I've set a few little stories in that time period, but I always enjoy revisiting it.

I've always imagined that Elrond had a bit of foresight that Bilbo would return to Rivendell at some point, and rather looked forward to having him with them.

One of the best things about writing (or receiving) a gift fic is that not only the one it is meant for can enjoy it, but everyone else can enjoy it as well!

Happy new year to you my good sir/lady?

Am always delighted to read on Rivendell Elves... especially the creation of the author's new characters as you have done with this story!

More please of Eledhwen and Maeron and Avorn :)

PS- Lindir is it not? instead of Lindor?

Author Reply: Yep! You are quite right! I guess I saw too many chocolate commercials during the holiday season! ;-) I will fix that soon.

Eledwhen and Mairen will make their appearances in a long fic I am co-writing with another person. I borrowed them both for this story, and gave Mairen a husband as well.
