Meriadoc The Magnificent and The Boss  by Grey Wonderer 12 Review(s)

Heehee! I like how Merry called wee Faramir "The Boss." It's funny how a baby comes in and takes over! But poor Pippin, so exhausted and being pulled from all directions. I'm glad Merry was there to help. I also liked the description of miserably pregnant Pervinca. Poor Merry, having to deal with that!

(You ought to post this to wee_hobbits, you know)

Author Reply: I have known women like Pervinca. They love their childern dearly but can't stand being pregnant. I figured with that many sisters, one of Pippin's had to be a terror to be around while she was 'carrying'. LOL
I thought Faramir should have a nickname from his Uncle Merry and I didn't want to use any that were already in use such as Farry, Fam, etc, so I decided to let Faramir's nickname come from something he did and not his full correct name. Glad you liked it!

I really enjoyed this GW. My heart goes out to Pippin and Diamond. I loved your description of a sleeping baby even though I feel that 'butt' may be a little too American for my tastes in a story about hobbits. (Not a flame, dear GW! Well, may be just a tiny wisp of smoke)*g*

Author Reply: Glad you enjoyed it. In order to avoid the flames that might come in future reviews I have changed the word 'butt' to 'bum' which I do believe is a wee bit more British. LOL I thank you for the correction. I truly didn't notice it when I was writing this down. Sometimes, try though I might, my American-isms sneak out. Thank you for helping me to put out the fire before things got out of hand. As always, thank you for reviewing and for reading, and in this case, for putting out the fire.
