“You always think I need washing up,” Aragorn chuckled.
*Grins* Why is that so, I wonder ;-)

And Yay for a new Shirebound Story!
The title is very promising, and there are puppies in it!

I'm looking forward to reading more, although I will be on holiday for a while. But I'll catch up with your story as soon as possible :)


Author Reply: Thank you, Andrea, I'm glad you're looking forward to more. I hope you have a lovely holiday.

Puppies! :)

Ah! A new story,I believe I will love this one as much as the last!

Author Reply: Awww, thank you, Elfingimp. What a sweet thing to say. I certainly hope you enjoy this one as much as I'm enjoying planning it. :)

Oh, brilliant, brilliant, brilliant!!! Another tale from Shirebound! And Elladan is here as well as puppies! And hurt and comfort of course!

I did have to grin at my own perception of language though. To this Brit 'washing up' refers to doing the dishes and not so much to washing yourself! However, I am sure that Estel is happy to do both or either in Bag End.

Author Reply: Thank you for your enthusiasm, Harrowcat. (And I agree that Estel would be willing to 'wash up' in any way that is needed.)

Elves and puppies and rangers, oh my! There's room in this 'universe' for everyone. *grins*

How delightful to see this story continuing. Estel's history with Frodo and the return of Scamp leave me in such a happy place! And bringing Elladan into the Shire makes Sam's dream come true!

Author Reply: Thank you so much. This is *my* "happy place", as well. Estel and Frodo both deserve to have had such a gentle friendship.

YAYAY!! You finally started posting it!!

Ooooh, I like the changes you made - I don't remember Sam meeting Elladan before - didn't he drop out of the tree after Sam left? Hmmm, that's how I remember it anyway.

I love the exchange between Estel and Frodo... but of course that's a large part of what makes your Quarantined universe so wonderful - their relationship. I also really enjoyed Elladan's assessment of Frodo, and the differences between his responses and Sam's.

Can't wait for the next chapter!

Author Reply: Yay! I'm so glad to dive back into this happy world of Estel and his 'little one'.

What a delightful and intriguing beginning! I love little Sam's reaction to Elladan! And it's going to be really interesting seeing Elladan become acquainted with his foster-brother's friends!

Author Reply: I'm so glad this feels intriguing! It's always a challenge to find new ways to send that fluff flying, you know. :)

Ah, you are off to a great start! I can never get enough of Sam (and LOTR). This was very charming and easy to visualize as I read. Thanks! I hope Bilbo is feeling better soon.

Author Reply: Thank you, Cookie. I can't imagine *ever* getting enough of LOTR.

I'll tell Bilbo you sent regards. :)

*bounces*

How wonderful to see this! The puppies, Elladan, Sam's reaction to meeting Elladan, Frodo displaying both his education and his wondeful manners - and hints of a bit of h/c?

Just lovely!

Author Reply: Awww, I do appreciate bounces! Thank you. I'm very excited to be starting this at last.

Lily BagginsReviewed Chapter: 1 on 5/30/2007
Oh, my gosh, what a wonderful start to this!!! I'm so happy to see Elladan there, as well . . . this is very intriguing. And of course, greatly enjoyed the meeting between Frodo and Aragorn---you even have a wee bit of h/c in there, don't you? :)

I can't wait to read the next lovely chapter.

Author Reply: Well, there has to be a *wee* bit of h/c, you know. Just... just because. :)

Thank you so much, Lily.
