| Oh I am so pleased to more of these tales here. I did track them down elsewhere. It does Pippin good to realise that even his respectable elders were young once. And how could he even imagine that he could fool Sam! Author Reply: From Dreamflower: Yes, even his "respectable" elders, as you put it, were not so respectable once. And I think he was mostly being hopeful. You have to admit to a certain "logic" in his plan, LOL! | |

| Wonderful, Dreamflower! This made me laugh out loud: If anyone but Gandalf had told the story, he would never have believed it. But he could easily imagine that it was something that Mr. Pippin’s and Mr. Merry’s grandfathers would have done--in fact, he could just as easily imagine Mr. Merry and Mr. Pippin doing such a thing themselves. It was a good thing they were still too young for such mischief when Bilbo went away. Do you mean PJ got it wrong?! Truly, a most "excellent adventure" for the previous generation, dear. Blessings, Mum Author Reply: From Dreamflower: Well, it would be surprising if he did not; clearly he was not solely relying on the Red Book for his information, and so allowed misinformation from lesser secondary and tertiary sources enter into it. I am sure that when he heard the account of a Took and a Brandybuck being involved in such a thing, he naturally assumed it was Merry and Pippin, LOL! | |

| I've enjoyed this story as much the second tme around as the first. I was thinking of nominating this, if you think that's okay? Personally, I loved the works of every contributor and I truly feel it's worthy. Let me know if it's all right. | |

| Nicely done, ansothehobbit. Pippin telling a story from Rivendell brings a little variety, and who would read about Pippin healing that wouldn't also enjoy Merry healing? :) <>< Saved from sin through Christ, mj | |

| Yes, caring for one another is what cousins do best, I think. Lovely again. | |

| I love the twist of having Pippin tell a story about a sick Merry. And I feel for Merry - headaches like that are absolutely horrible! | |

| it was good to be a hobbit in Rivendell, and to have cousins and friends who loved you and looked out for you when you didn't have the wits to do it yourself. It sure is. Glad to see that Pippin is up to telling a tale in return! Happy Yule everyone! | |

| Very cute! Love it. And his mother finally figured out the right direction to give him. Poor Tom Tarrytoes. Think I'll tell this version of the story to my small great nieces. | |
