| Sam frowned. “But no one’s named that. Strider’s name is...” He thought hard. “Strider!” he said triumphantly. “Hah, I win.” Bwahahaha! Oh dear, that is hilarious! Never reason with anyone who had one or three over the eight. I loved Frodo grumbling about Lobelia's name too. They won't be as cheerful in the morning though. Author Reply: Let's not think about the morning... let's just enjoy our hobbits happy, tipsy, and totally entertaining. Thanks, BB! | |

| ROTFL!!! I reviewed this before, but I could not resist! “You shouldn’t have tried to trick Sham,” Frodo scowled up at Merry. He tried to swat his cousin on the leg, but missed. “Strider’s name IS Strider. You should know that by now.” Don't try to argue with a drunken hobbit, for he'll always win ;-) Just a silly question: How much ale does a tankard hold? One litre, or more? Author Reply: You sweetie, thank you for the second review. And I really don't know the answer to your question in this particular case, sorry! There are tankards, and then there are large *ceremonial* tankards, from which the hobbits are drinking in this scene. :) | |

| As a healer he must know one cannot properly debate with someone who's drunk, as they can barely think as it is. Poor Frodo! Poor Aragorn! Author Reply: If he didn't know it before, he certainly knows it now. :) | |

| “Drinking without eating is... well...” He looked confused. “Who would do that?” Well certainly not hobbits - even ones who are one drink past tipsy! *g* Love gentle Aragorn! Author Reply: They *are* slightly past tipsy, aren't they? :) | |

| ROTFL! *gasps to recover breath* Oh my word...wow! Just...wow. They'll feel *great* in the morning, LOL! “Wait a minute, mine had seven shyllables, and he only had six!” Frodo protested. “Irrelevant.” Merry waved him off and held up the paper again. “Sam, here’s your last one.” “What is that?” Sam asked in horror. “Our new king,” Merry explained. “His name is Strider,” Sam informed him haughtily, in a tone he never would have taken if not drunk as a skunk. “This is the name he’ll be known by,” Merry explained. “You can do it, Sam; I’ve only given you six syllables, the same as Pip.” “I told you Pip only had sixth,” Frodo said, vindicated. He slid dizzily to the floor and sat there, confused. “Where did Sham go?” “Mr. Frodo needs me,” Sam said desperately. “I can’t be playin’ this silly game anymore, Mr. Merry.” *giggles* Nice try, Sam. And Merry is just being so...Merry! :D “It’s not Merry’s fault that Cousin Lobelia has such a complistrated lash name,” Frodo continued. “Aren’t I right?” “Of course you are,” Aragorn said soothingly. He carried Frodo to the bedroom, followed by the three other hobbits. Sam staggered to a chair, Pippin hiccuped his way to another, and Merry stood, not that steady on his feet himself, watching Aragorn seat Frodo on the bed. Frodo pulled on Aragorn’s tunic. “Poor Merry, he only got to have one teenshy weenshy mug before his handwriting started getting fuzzy and he had to stop. But we left enough for you and Gandalf and Migli and Leglas.” “That is very generous,” Aragorn said. “However, those ceremonial tankards are hardly ‘mugs’.” Um...was that supposed to be "complicated?" *grin* I'll say hardly mugs. Let's hope the rest of the fellowship knows how to use moderation a little better than our Hobbits! :P Thanks for a great laugh, Shirebound! God bless, Galadriel Author Reply: Frodo *was* trying to say 'complicated', but he didn't quite succeed, did he? Glad you enjoyed, QG! I agree that our hobbits may be in less of a party-like mood, come morning. :) | |

| *snort* Chuckled my way through this. Wonderful sense of timing. What is it about hobbits and drinking games? Sam's perfectly right. Strider's name is Strider. I didn't quite get the point of the game, but got the general gist, I think. Author Reply: I guess the point of the game is seeing who can read and speak coherently the longest. *grins* Glad you enjoyed! And Sam *is* right, of course. :) | |

| lol, they certainly wouldn't want to wait long before getting back into their ale. "Frodo concentrated mightily through the ale-induced fog that had once been his brain..." Poor Frodo, I think Merry rather tricked him, giving him more syllables. Thanks for the laugh this morning! Author Reply: Yes, Merry should be ashamed of himself. Strider too, for having such a complistrated name. Glad this gave you a laugh! :) | |

| Wonerfool! Prefect! Marvilouse!!! I needed a good laugh. And Pippin and Sham did both win even though Strider keeps changing his name ;-) Author Reply: Thanks, Pearl! This was such a blast to write. :) | |
