An Unexpected Adventure [IN HIATUS]  by KathyG 4 Review(s)

Lovely! I do adore spending time with hobbits. Especially the Travellers. Merry holding his breath while concentrating sounds so familiar!

I do have a question about Boromir being addressed as "sire"? I hadn't seen that before.

The picnic makes me hungry. I agree, I'm not a huge fan of jerky, though it will do in a pinch.

I forgot to say how much I enjoy glimpses of Northern and Ithilien Rangers in these chapters.

Best to you and DF.

Author Reply: I adore spending time with hobbits, too!

You'll have to ask Dreamflower about that word. I don't know why she decided that Boromir would be addressed that way.

I'm not sure I'd want to eat jerky even in a pinch! [wry grin]

Best to you, too! =) K.G.

These have learned their lessons well enough, at least. I always believed Pippin would do well teaching swordsmanship.

Author Reply: Yes, he would, wouldn't he? =)

"'Hit it off'? Is it the custom in your world for courting couples to hit one another?"

How strange many of our figures of speech would sound to them!

I enjoyed this chapter very much. Kathy, would you please give Dreamflower my best wishes for a smooth and complete recovery from everything? I think about her so often.

Author Reply: LOL! Indeed. =) It's true. The figures of speech we're familiar with and don't think twice about would indeed sound very odd to the people of Middle-earth.

Sure, I'll give Dreamflower your message. K.G.

Ah, it does sound like all's well in the end with all of the children's adventures to this point. Now, just waiting for the big reunion.

Author Reply: Yeah, no kidding! =) K.G.
