I liked this conversation between Bilbo and Legolas. A calm, thoughtful exchange, and Bilbo has long learnt patience and the ways elves. Author Reply: Thank you, Nurayy! There are so many intriguing gaps to be filled. I hope neither of us ever run out of inspiration. :) | |

Hmm...so Bilbo planted the idea to accompany Frodo in Legolas's head, did he? Wonder if he ended up doing the same with Gimli, since it was he and not his father who went with Frodo and Sam on the Quest. BTW, shirebound, somebody has hacked your account and posted an add on the story summary. Author Reply: Thanks for your review, Kathy, and also the tip about the hack! I'll go in and correct the story summary. | |

"... Trusted companions... Hmmm, I wonder whether Gloín and his son are still at luncheon..." Definitely Bilbo. Very nice! A short story, and yet it has a definite point to it. I am not a fan of stories - or drabbles, as they are often called - in which there is nothing but a brief 'emotional' scene with nothing behind it. This, however, had a point and a plot, and I like how you did both Bilbo and Legolas' voices. They sound like the characters. :) Author Reply: Thank you for that nice compliment. I enjoy unexpected conversations or meetings that turn out to have a strong impact on events. | |

What a lovely idea, that Bilbo might have gently have influenced the makeup of the Fellowship. Author Reply: Thank you. I just couldn't resist exploring this idea! | |

Indeed important paths and errands have crossed and met here. Elrond indicated that it was obvious that a purpose had brought so many there at that time, and now both Bilbo and Legolas have realized this, too. The Powers be with them.... Author Reply: It usually takes me a long time to come up with a story title, but this one spoke to me right away. I was 'meant' to find it, as Legolas and Bilbo were meant to converse! :) | |

Nice story! I like how Legolas and Bilbo met, and how Bilbo ended up giving Legolas the idea to join Frodo and Sam on their journey. Author Reply: Thank you! This was a fun idea to play with. | |

What a neat meeting! I never thought of that but of course it makes perfect sense for this fun little gapfiller to take place. :) Namarie, God bless, Antane :) Author Reply: I'm glad it rings true. Thank you, Antane. | |

Yes, Bilbo did his bit and he did it very well. When you think on it a little you recognize that they were all meant to be there at that place in that moment. They always had a guide, even when they were alone. And that is, as Gandalf once said "an encouraging thought". Author Reply: It certainly is, Andrea. And I appreciate *your* many encouraging thoughts and comments. :) | |
