| Ohhhh, ohhhh, dear! Very nice characterization of Lobelia. After all, she was a mother herself, even the lotheable Lotho had to have been young once.I like the description of her grasping her umbrella and preparing to meet the "danger. An involving beginning. Do go on! | |

| Oh dear. Hobbit-napped! Well possession is nine tenths of the law they say. But Lobelia has reckoned on Sam or Tooks or Baggins'! | |

| Darn, no time to read even ch 2, so this isn't a real review at all, just an administrative note. The MEFA awards accept incomplete works, so you don't have to hurry to finish this before the deadline if you don't have the time or inclination. It can be entered as a WIP this year, and if you finish it before reading/voting season ends the status can be changed to "complete", I think, and if not, it can compete as a WIP this year and a finished work whenever it gets finished. The big deadline is that you have to respond to the email saying it has been nominated (check your spam filter, or email me if you don't hear anything from MEFA), and you have to finalize the story details at the MEFA site (story length, genre, main characters, that sort of thing--you have two other stories nominated there, so if you've finalized them you know what I mean, and if you haven't, you need to, and soon, as you only have about another week to do that). Whew. Does that make sense? Author Reply: Perfect sense:o) It's actually finished, I just can't resist the urge to tinker with it a bit, so it's nice to know I have plenty of time for that. But thanks! | |

| Still no time to read this properly, but I took the liberty of nominating it for MEFAs. The deadline is coming up quickly, no time for niceties. Hope that's ok. Author Reply: It's okay:o)Hope it can sneak in under the wire! Yipes, I guess I better get crackin' and get this thing all the way done and posted, lol. Thanks, Lin. | |

| That the mysterious naked infant should prove to be little Pippin is so appropriate! Love it, and that even Lobelia is moved to do the right thing--for the moment, at least! Dear Pippin! Author Reply: Yes, I've never been able to see Lobelia in a completely bad light. She's not such a bad old girl.(Cranky and bossy and bitter, and with a bad case of sticky-fingers when it comes to Bilbo' silver spoons, but not so bad;o) Thanks for reading, Larner. | |

| Hoorah, you're writing again! *tosses handful of confetti in air* *looks ruefully at floor* *O well, it needed sweeping anyhow* Even though I skimmed at top speed (have to be out the door in 30 seconds or so) I laughed out loud at one point. No, more than one. Excellent story! Lovely portrayal of Lobelia. Author Reply: *Sweeps up for you* Thanks again, Lin! | |

| Ooh this is shaping up to be a good tale, if not a little alarming for both Pippin AND Lobelia! Looking forward to more. | |
