| Awwwwwwwwwwwww!! This was so adorable! I think a sequel detailing how Merry and Estella end up together is in order. *firm nod* I'll even buy you a plot bunny if it will help! *holds up a wee black bunny enticingly* Come onnnnn, you know you want it! ;) Anyway, this was very well written. You've got these hobbits DOWN, man... it's like reading what Tolkein would have written if he was a girl and prone to writing romances where the lovebirds in question actually, you know, interact. ;) FFN is missing out, and it serves them right for being so anal retentive. Now to catch up on Return of the Dude... maybe if I wind up watching the desk tomorrow... *shifty eyes* ~Platy Author Reply: A post-Quest fic is in the very early stages of work. As soon as I get a couple of other stories finished and done, I'll put my full attention to that, as it's promising to be even more involved and complicated than "A Tale...". I think the lasses do get more than a bit short-changed in Tolkien's world, so it's fun to go in and try to figure out how certain things might have happened. | |

| We know things turned around for Estella while Frodo, Sam, Merry and Pippin were gone, but it's nice to see what happened with Pervinca. Lovely story and well told. Thanks! Author Reply: LOL, Pervinca will have much to keep her distracted and preoccupied over the next several months. Now she'll understand what Estella was going through, though she will get things resolved much more quickly. It won't take her long to figure out how to tell Ev of her feelings. Thanks for reading! I'm glad you enjoyed it. :) | |

| I adore your works dear! You truly have talent, and have a strong way of working a plot and a good balance between dialogue and description. I also enjoy your characterization and the ways the characters interact and have evolving friendships with each other in your ficts. But this ending has interested me greatly! Now I wonder how Estella and Merry end up together in the end, or if they even do! Are you keeping them apart in your work of fanfiction? Or not? You've got my interest, that's for certain! But remember now: Curiosity killed/incapacitated the Took, as they always say. I'm sad to say that as my forbearers were Mennonite, and that after painstaking research I've discovered that Menno Simons was actually a hobbit descendant of the Thrain Peregrin I insist I've got some Took in me. Please don't condemn me to a horrible fate of not knowing! Excuse me as I roll on the floor making inarticulate sounds and blubber. All hail thee, Gamgeefest. May you computer never suffer memory loss or software error! Author Reply: Hello Rabid Penflinger! Good to meet you. :) Thank you for your kind words. It's such an honor to know that others enjoy what my work. This is, in fact, canon, I just have something different in mind for Estella and Merry. That will, however, have to wait for my post-Quest fic, whenever I have time to actually sit down and work on it. I'm also still figuring out a few of the details. Thanks for reading! | |
