Great fun! I love that Pip was in the tree. Merry should have let him get Sam in the arse! hehehe.

Author Reply: I almost let him get Sam in the arse, but decided to let Sam out-smart them instead. Sadly, then I turned on Sam and let him be drawn into the plot! LOl I never knew where I'm going when I start! Thanks for reviewing!

lol! That was great! I laughed through the whole thing! My first thought was that someone's aim was off and they would end up braking a window, but I don't know if pebble from a sling shot would do that. Poor, Sam being the one to actually hit Frodo! It was lots of fun, thank you!

Author Reply: I almost did have them break something until the idea of somone, Frodo, being hit came to me and then I decided that might be an interesting way to go. I started to make Sam a bad shot, but changed my mind and just had Frodo get in the way. Glad you enjoyed it and thank s for readig these!

You've done it again, LOL! I really love Sam playing detective, and thet Merry and Pip are able to tempt him to do just what he caught them at! Hilarious!

Author Reply: I started to let his catching them be the end of it, but then I decided that Sam deserved a chance to shoot at something. He was going to hit something breakable but then, well, Frodo got in the way. LOL

"Frodo is *always* reading!"
Somehow I don't find that hard to believe.

“Brilliant,” Merry growled. “Now, will you please get your foot off of me?”
You have a deft sense of timing, as usual.

Thanks for an enjoyable read!

Author Reply: So glad that you liked it. I just seem to be writing only these short fictions at the moment. Before, I couldn't seem to end one even when it needed ending, and now I'm doing this. LOL I never know what's coming.

Sorry I'm late in getting to this, vacation and then computer glitches. I am having sooooo much fun reading these!! They brighten my day. Thank you for sharing them with us all.

Author Reply: So glad that you are having a good time with these. Hope the vacation was a good one. I know how those computer glitches can be and I hope yours is not giving youtoo much trouble. Wouldn't want anything to happen to future chapters of "While We Dwelt in Fear" ! Thanks for reading!

I love Pippin's joyous certainty that running into the fort again would work fine.

And Merry's decision that he needs to think a bit more about braking - it just seems so typical of both of them.

Author Reply: Merry has to be the practical one because Pipin just figures if they get away with it once, it should work again. Thanks for all of your lovely reviews.

Such attachment at such a young age! I guess that was a big part of thier foundation as friends! Very sweet! Thank you for such wonderful stories!

Author Reply: I love the way little children look at older ones. They always want to go with the bigger kids and I think Pippin was always wanting to go with his Merry.

The last bit was great! "“Won’t running into the fort again work?”" That Pip was brave enough to want to go with Merry was very nice. I like the way you wrote Freddy and Folco, that they would tease Merry a bit but still realize that it could be serious if things went wrong. Thank you for the tale!

Author Reply: Freddy and Falco don't mind teasing a bit but they don't want anyone to get hurt. Glad you liked them in this one.

That was great! At least there wasn't a snake to be found! But a skunk? Oh dear! And Frodo got it instead of Merry! Frodo should have made Merry look for the "kitty" and Frodo should have taken Pippin! I like what Pip calls Bilbo! What fun! Thank you!

Author Reply: Thanks so much for reading all of these. Your reviews are a great help to me.

Pippin thinking he was going to be trapped in a bucket forever, poor guy! I laughed thorugh the whole thing! I like the way you write Pearl, calm in the face of a problem such as this must have been difficult! Thank for asuch a fun story!

Author Reply: As the oldest, I think Pearl would have to be the one in charge and calm in the face of trouble. It's a tough job but someone has to do it.
