| The memory of being under the troll must have lingered so. Lovely accomplishment, meeting this challenge. | |

| Sharing the grief of the great Elven lord must have been shocking. Lovely short one, Lindelea. | |

| Oh, Marvelous! Wish I'd seen this one elsewhere! Yes, Rosie knew, and was able to tell Marigold to hearten her. Am so glad Saruman only got a month in the Shire--unprintable word that he'd become! But Sam is back and has hardened--become sterner, like the trees he sees replaced. Lovely! | |

| He was surrounded, and they were seizing him from all sides, and some of them had sharp claws, and he thought for a panicked moment of Bilbo and the goblins. Poor Pippin! *giggles* Author Reply: Poor little lad. Bet it took him a long time to live this one down. Can't you hear Eglantine telling the story over tea...? | |

| Reading and reviewing this again, for it is so marvelously done, Lindelea. The moment when the Ring goes down, the fear and terror when It takes Frodo and then is destroyed anyway.... And the destruction of Mordor felt so very far away by some who loved Pippin best! A marvelous tale. Author Reply: Much belated thanks for stopping and leaving a good word. I don't know what happened, that I don't seem to have seen so many reviews. I don't know if this reply will go to your current email or an old one, but in any event, here's hoping you and yours are keeping well. | |

| Oh! ROTFL! Oh! *wipes eyes*grins* Dana's going to *love* this one!! And what a nice little change from angst! This is adorable--poor Pippin! I love his suspicion and his stubborn defiance, even in the face of being *tied up*! (Oh, yes, Dana will *love* this all right!) Poor little fella! *snicker* It's a good thing though, that Merry didn't tumble to what the lasses had in mind, or he might have attempted the sort of rescue he made Ferdi a few years earlier... Author Reply: Yes, I tried to get a few of Dana's fav themes in. Pippin-and-Estella. Pippin-tied-up. Poor Pip, at least they didn't dress him up in finery! | |

| Bravo! Bravo!! Bravisimo!!! This was a wonderful story :) I love Mari and Merry's initial discomfort with, well, everthing it seemed, to then just doing what needed to be done and laughing over it all. The anxiety and horror you painted for the family and the searchers was also spot on! MEWD!!!! Author Reply: Thank you! It was so nice to write a story that was more comfort and comedy than angst! | |

| I really enjoyed this sweet, humorous, tale of the misadventures of Mari & Merry. Their characters were so wonderful to read; I especially enjoyed Marigold's practicality and throwing some propriety to the wind. I just love how Merry was rolled up The Hill in a wheelbarrow at the end! LOL!! P.S. You've also inspired me with a chapter title for an upcoming series of mine. Author Reply: A chapter title for an upcoming series? But now you have me curious! Are you going to let me know when I can read it? Thanks! | |

| This is lovely and so sweet. If this is a product of a heatwave then long may it continue. Oh, oh, only joking........ really I am hating every minute of it! Author Reply: Oh, I hate heatwaves too. Now we're back to "normal" summer temperatures. Normally a little too warm for my blood, but twenty degrees cooler than the unbearable heat we had a little while ago, so who am I to complain? Actually, I have a little more writing time than I had before, and hope to continue at least until the school year gears up again. Will keep pegging away just so long as the Muse keeps whispering. (And so long as people keep giving me feedback, so that I don't have the feeling I'm just talking to myself. You know what they say about people who talk to themselves! Amazing how motivating such a thing can be. I thank you, once more, for yours.) | |
